The second bedroom is on a mezzanine floor accessed via stairs (no door between) from the master bedroom within the suite has two full size single beds and a lounge area with small sofa/sofa-bed and coffee table and second TV with streaming facilities and blu-ray player. High chairs, stair gates and travel cots are available for no additional charge (providing they are requested at the time of booking). Please note we do not supply bedding for travel cots.
The sofa-bed on this mezzanine floor may be opened up if there is a fifth guest (we normally suggest the sofa-bed is used for children only) - please note this reduces the available floor space. A supplement applies.

There is free Internet connectivity provided via high performance WiFi access available throughout the entire property.
For additional security there is also a safe which is large enough to accommodate most laptops.

Other things to note
When you book with us we can usually provide discount links that typically give 25% discount on your ferry crossing with a vehicle and up to 6 people to the the Isle of Wight.
Please note that this is a family-focused accommodation and the sleeping arrangements are a duplex family bedroom suite over two floors with stairs within the master bedroom to the second bedroom on a mezzanine floor upstairs (no door between). This makes for a great environment for families with children, or groups of younger people who are close friends; however it may perhaps be too intimate for sharing by two couples, or grown up children and older parents.
If you need fully separate rooms we have St Catherine's View which has two fully separate bedrooms and bathrooms, or Tennyson View which is a great standalone room with ensuite bathroom - ideal for use for friends or extended family when staying in one of our other apartments.
Some Amenities, notably for toddlers/babies, such as stair gates and travel cot if required should be requested ahead of the stay as they are not stored in the apartment.
This apartment can accommodate a fifth guest on a sofabed in the upstairs mezzanine bedroom, making the fifth place ideally suited to a third child in a family of five rather than an adult. Bedroom floorspace on the mezzanine floor is limited when the sofabed is in use.
This property is entirely non-smoking (including outside areas).
