Nettlestone Isle of Wight Map

About Nettlestone

Nettlestone rests on the eastern flank of the Isle of Wight, a place where the land gently inclines towards the sea, catching the early morning light. It lies 3.7 km east-south-east of Ryde (from Ryde: bearing 120°T, OS grid SZ 624 907), and is situated south-south-west of Seaview village. The air here carries a subtle scent of salt and wild thyme, a constant reminder of the nearby Solent. Fields, often a rich, earthy brown or a verdant green depending on the season's mood, roll away towards the coast, their boundaries softened by hedgerows that are home to chattering wrens. There is a quiet constancy to Nettlestone, a sense of enduring peace that seems to seep from the very soil, a feeling amplified by the distant chime of church bells on a still Sunday. The quality of the light, particularly in the late afternoon, can cast a golden hue over the thatched roofs and the weathered brickwork, lending a timeless character to the lanes.
