Picturesque Winkle Street in Calbourne was originally known as Barrington Row and it was named after the Barrington family who owned the estate when the first cottages were built in the 1750s. You will almost certainly be visited by families of ducks that will be eager to be fed.

A really lovely cottage in a charming location.
A really lovely cottage in a charming location. The house was clean, well equipped and very comfortable. The welcome pack, tea, coffee, breakfast cereals and logs for the fire were a really thoughtful touch and the hosts arranged our ferry crossings with an excellent discount. It is the perfect place for a peaceful week and we were delighted to be able to feed the ducks and watch the heron.

Winkle cottage is very welcoming, cosy and comfortable.
Winkle cottage is very welcoming, cosy and comfortable. Location beautiful and peaceful. Ideal base for travelling around the Island.The owners were very helpful in arranging our ferry booking and notifying us as soon as the cottage was available, so that we were able to settle in early and make the most of our first day. Beautiful garden across the road , which we did not use as we had our dogs with us.

We loved the cottage, it was so comfortable and peaceful in such a tranquil place.
We loved the cottage, it was so comfortable and peaceful in such a tranquil place. The gently gurgling stream, with the occasional heron taking a drink, and the lovely garden to sit in and while away a few hours. It would have helped to have the stream fenced off from the garden, so our spaniel could be let off his lead, when in the garden. The shower did not have a non slip mat or any handles - definitely a slip hazard. Other than that, perfect!
