Ashleigh is located on the seaward side of the beautiful and tranquil village of Bonchurch on the south-east coast of the Isle of Wight. Apart from the basement apartment where the housekeeper resides, with its own entrance and separate garden, the house stands detached within an acre of gardens with large lawns, woodland walks and badger sett giving the feel of being deep in the countryside, yet the sea is only a few hundred yards away. The spacious 1830s house was once the home of one of Queen Victoria’s ladies in waiting and Bonchurch is famous for its past literary residents including Dickens, Swinburne and Shaw. The house combines all modern conveniences with original architectural features such as high ceilings, decorative plasterwork, 8 fireplaces, wooden window shutters, stripped floors, panelled doors and elegant furnishings
