Toreaves has stunning views of the sea and the downs between Luccombe and Ventnor. You can sit on the chaise-long in the spacious living room and watch the ships sail by or sip cocktails on the decking in the extensive garde and admire the changing colours as the sun plays over the downs and is splintered by the waves in The Channel as you look over towards France. The accommodation comprises of a
main bedroom with a king size bed, a twin bedroom, a single bedroom and a downstairs bedroom with a double bed and french windows out into the garden. The kitchen/diner has a lovely airy feel and opens through to the light and spacious living room with its wonderful views. The kitchen windows look out over the fields and Downs to the North-West.

Although there are lots of places to eat in Shanklin and on the Island we know that when self catering it can be frustrating trying to cook in a strange house so we provide a large range of kitchen utensils and equipment for the culinarily creative. There is a good range of saucepans and cooking pots as well as cooking utensils. There are also a bread maker, slow cooker and electric whisk. Sainsburys, Waitrose and Tesco will all deliver to Luccombe so you can save yourself the chore of shopping and arrange delivery (there is a large fridge/freezer!)
