Rookley Farm Lodge

Rookley Farm Lodge is an attractive stone-built spacious, comfortable house and can accommodate up to ten guests with use of swimming pool and tennis court.



The Lodge is set in beautiful countryside surroundings across from the former farmyard and the attractive and historic Rookley Farm House. The accommodation consists of 5 bedrooms, two with en-suite bathrooms, one family bathroom, dining room, conservatory, well-equipped kitchen, large sitting room and doors leading to the patio with outdoor dining area.



The swimming pool can be used from the last Bank Holiday in May to September and is situated in front of the house with a pool house adjacent with additional shower and wc.



The tennis court is in use all year round and is accessed from the start of the driveway through a gate.



The Lodge has an acre of garden leading onto fields grazed by sheep and spectacular views in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and Site of Special Scientific Interest. The River Medina (a stream) passes one field away from the Lodge. The Lodge is situated half a mile down an unmade farm track, off the main road between Rookley and Niton, in a quiet rural location of exceptional beauty, ideal for walkers, cyclists, birdwatchers, or anyone seeking a holiday in unspoilt English countryside with easy access to all the Isle of Wight has to offer. There are great walks starting at your front door and a local pub and restaurant within walking distance.



This is the perfect location for a quiet relaxing holiday on the Isle of Wight.

Half term family break for 10

Lovely property with ample space for 6 adults and 4 children. We all fitted in well with lots space for the children including the conservatory for them to watch Tv and play with their toys. Bedrooms all well positioned for us too. Tennis courts and basketball ring were a big hit. A couple of things could have been better, cooking pans and dishes needed a wash before use. Welcome pack could have been more “welcoming” and the provision of more tea towels and toilet rolls. However, overall a lovely break and property. Would like to go again in summer months when pool in use.
