The Retreat is a great base from which to enjoy a seaside holiday, with a beach just a mile away and the attractions of Ryde a short walk away.

The Retreat is a detached, dog friendly holiday home with two double bedrooms accommodating up to four people in total. This beautifully furnished and well equipped holiday home offers a surprisingly spacious base, and is located in the popular seaside town of Ryde with its host of shops, bars, restaurants and cafés. The property is also located just a short stroll from the marvellous beach at Appley. The stretches of sand at Ryde offer fantastic views across the Solent to Portsmouth, with the landmark Spinnaker Tower forming an impressive backdrop to a busy shipping channel, which carries an interesting array of freight, passenger and military ships, a great place to take your four legged friends for their morning walk.

Along the promenade, you will find tennis courts, ten pin bowling, a fun fair, canoe lake and a swimming pool, providing plenty to do within the local area. You can also enjoy the scenic coastal walks, go crabbing, sailing, fishing, horse riding, golf or even go-karting, all of which are easily accessible from the property.
