The Island Holiday Company is delighted to present to you, The Farmhouse at Nunwell – A Historic Luxury Farmhouse Estate Surrounded by Ancient Parkland
Escape to one of the Isle of Wight’s most unique countryside retreats — a beautifully restored historic farmhouse nestled within the breath-taking grounds of the ancient Nunwell Estate. An historic family estate, where the Oglander family have resided since 1120.
Surrounded by rolling parkland, ancient veteran oak trees, and unspoilt countryside, Nunwell offers an unforgettable luxury self-catering stay where heritage, nature, and refined comfort come together effortlessly.
Lovingly restored between 2023–2026, this exceptional farmhouse was originally built around 1812 — blends original character features with sophisticated modern living. Inside, guests will discover flagstone floors, exposed wooden beams, limestone walls, bespoke handcrafted interiors, and elegant entertaining spaces designed for memorable gatherings with family and friends.
Whether you’re planning a large family holiday on the Isle of Wight, a countryside group getaway, a special celebration, or a peaceful rural escape, The Farmhouse offers a truly atmospheric setting unlike anywhere else on the island.
From cosy evenings beside the double-sided fireplace to slow mornings overlooking ancient farmland, every detail has been thoughtfully curated to create a warm, luxurious, and deeply relaxing experience.
Guests can enjoy access to surrounding farmland and parkland, including a shared field with tree swings, whilst also benefiting from the unique on-site offerings of the Nunwell Estate, including the seasonal farm-to-fork restaurant “Braai” and Nunwell Farm Kitchen, the estate’s artisan butchers showcasing ethically sourced local produce.
PLEASE NOTE BRAAI IS A POP UP RESTAURANT WITH MAIN OPENING FOR JULY AND AUGUST, WITH SOME ADDITIONAL WEEKENDS. PLEASE CHECK WEBSITE FOR FURTHER INFORMATION

This place is magical - if you’re looking for somewhere to stay on the island that is a bit more premium - look no further. The property is finished to such a high standard and it’s spotless. We unfortunately didn’t get ourselves booked in at the Braai restaurant out the front but it looked awesome and was always packed out. Do not hesitate to book this Airbnb, the hosts are lovely and the photos do not do this place justice. You have to see it to really appreciate the effort someone has gone through to renovate it. The only little thing I’d say is if you’re planning on walking to Brading - there is no path, it’s narrow roads and so there is a risk of getting hit by a car which isn’t ideal. We worked round this by booking taxis but they can be quite expensive.

Absolutely gem of a place. Farmhouse was immaculate from top to bottom and honestly speaking the house was packed with tea/coffees and pretty much anything you could think of. Really couldn’t fault anything. Kids had so much to do inside and outside (sorry if the kids left any mess, we did try and clean up as much as possible). It was kind of tiring running after them and tidying up all the things they had unpacked inside the house there are toys/games and outside there are balls/soft play toys. Little things like shower gel/shampoo/ hand wash made a big difference and almost felt like you were staying in a 5 star hotel. Location lovely English (if I am allowed to say that -) countryside and we were blessed with amazing weather. Barbecue onsite which was in pristine condition so again that is greatly appreciated and we had made good use of it. Beaches are all close by. Owner / Island holiday company are surely proud of this place and obviously take pride in the upkeep. Thank you 🙏
