Baltija is a four bedroom bungalow situated in the undercliff of St Lawrence, located at the southernmost tip of the Isle of Wight.

A lovely family holiday home.

Baltija was a comfortable holiday home that was ideal for our 3 generation family holiday. A little dated in decor but very clean and well equipped. The bedrooms were spacious with comfy beds and nice quality bed linen & towels. A few more electric sockets would have been handy in the bedrooms, but we purchased an adapter which solved the problem. The bathrooms were very clean and served their purpose. The showers were not particularly powerful but again served their purpose. The lounge & dining area was very spacious with enough seating for all and a lovely outlook onto the garden and beyond (sea view!) Our grandson used the high chair and that was very handy! The kitchen was very well equipped and had everything and more that we required during our stay. We only used the outside decking area a couple of times but if the weather had been warmer in the evenings we would have used more! The bungalow is a little dated in decor but it didn’t affect our holiday. Overall we all really enjoyed our stay in this lovely quiet location and it was a great base to visit the many lovely places on the IOW. Thank you!

For us this has been the best property we’ve found on the island. The
Undercliff is a beautiful, quiet area well placed for visiting the rest of the island. The coastal path close to the bungalow has excellent views. A very comfortable, spacious place.



Peace and tranquility

If you are looking for a relaxing place to spend a week or two, Baltija will certainly provide that. I have stayed at this property for several years, if you like walking there is plenty to choose from in the area, coastal or cliffs, I can recommend High Hat, where you can pick up the path from Seven Sisters Road, it’s a steep climb up but you will be rewarded with magnificent views.

The house had everything we needed for a comfortable stay and a well equipped kitchen. Great location for coastal walks, and not too far to get into Vendor for shopping (can't help the lack of a pavement in places!)
One thing I would improve would be the size of the 'double' bed - did it a bit hard sleeping comfortably.



Generally the bungalow was good and in a great location however some things were lacking.

A good quiet location and very comfortable accommodation. However the property did not quite come up to our expectations due to the following:- 1) No welcome note, milk or anything else (surely not because of the corona virus?). 2) There was no key in one of the bathrooms so could not be locked. 3) One bedroom had no light bulb (and no spares that we could see) 4) Some of the dishes in the cupboard had mould on (possibly put away wet) and some other bowls and cutlery were rather dirty. 5) The books from the shelves had been bagged (which was fine) but these appear to have been thrown into the airing cupboard around the spare sheets etc and some had come out of the bags onto the sheets. 6) During a power cut the night lights that we were told to use were not present above the cooker and only tall candles were present which we were told NOT to use! 7) The window in the kitchen could only be closed by pushing it from outside. 8) The vacuum cleaner didn't appear to work so cleaning was made more difficult.
I would possibly recommend this property to others but as the choice is either yes or no so I have had to choose the latter.

We come to the Isle often to visit family and have stayed in many places. Ventnor can be steep so when we found this bungalow we thought it would be perfect for her. It's not very modern and the showers were very powerless but other than that, we thought it was perfect. Sitting on the veranda eating breakfast was lovely. Its a short walk to woody bay which is a quiet beach, albeit a bit rocky. It was very quiet other than chickens next door and the odd lawn mower. We'll be back!

This is a really spacious bungalow with a great outlook. Good to have a well equipped kitchen, it's worth bringing some coffee pods for the Lavazza machine - it makes excellent coffee. The outside dining area was really popular, we had all our meals there. It doesn't mention it the property description that there are views of the sea from there. The walk down the lane to Woody Bay was a great end to each day.
