About this property
Bayside is a charming detached bungalow within a three minute walk of the sea at Colwell Bay on the west side of the Isle of Wight.

The promenade can be followed around to Totland Bay. Nearby is the attractive harbour and sailing centre of Yarmouth with its various restaurants, cafes and small shops.
