About this property

Commanding far-reaching views over the English Channel, the Wight Mouse Inn is peacefully located amid grassy downs just 15 minutes’ drive from Ventnor. There is a large garden and terrace with a children’s playground, and fresh seasonal dishes are served in the restaurant. Some Bedrooms at the Wight Mouse Inn come with a sea view and others with a view of St Catherine's Down (subject to availability). Decorated in bright and warm tones, each room comes with a flat-screen TV, an en suite bathroom and tea/coffee-making facilities. The Wight Mouse Inn features a family run public house, offering local Isle of Wight bitters and other beverages.
