The Old Abbey Farmhouse, Quarr Abbey
The Island Holiday Company invites you to stay at The Old Abbey Farmhouse, a historic Isle of Wight holiday home set within the extraordinary grounds of Quarr Abbey in Fishbourne.
This beautifully restored Grade II listed farmhouse offers a truly unique holiday experience on the Isle of Wight.
Combining heritage, tranquillity and countryside charm in one of the Island’s most remarkable settings. Surrounded by peaceful woodland walks, open farmland, red squirrels and the atmospheric ruins of the original 12th-century abbey, this characterful farmhouse provides the perfect retreat for those seeking space, stillness and natural beauty.
Guests are welcome to explore the Abbey grounds, where Gregorian chant services, an art gallery, farm shop, monastery shop and café create a rare sense of living heritage. After a day discovering the Island, return to the farmhouse, light the wood burner and relax in the calm of this historic setting.
Whether you are planning a walking holiday, a romantic countryside escape, or a peaceful family break, The Old Abbey Farmhouse offers a one-of-a-kind Isle of Wight stay. Located just two miles from Ryde town centre and a short walk from Fishbourne ferry terminal, the property combines rural seclusion with excellent accessibility, ideal for guests arriving by car or foot passenger. Book direct with The Island Holiday Company for the best rates, exclusive perks and discounted ferry travel to the Isle of Wight. About the property Entering through the original eighteenth-century doorway, you are welcomed into a bright hallway leading to the main living spaces. The farmhouse blends period charm with modern comfort.
Two wood burners create a cosy atmosphere throughout the cooler months, while views across surrounding farmland bring light and openness to the home. The dining room offers seating for four guests and features a wood burner, making it perfect for relaxed evening meals.
The kitchen is well equipped with modern appliances, and a small utility room adds convenience for longer stays. The living room is airy and inviting, complete with a Smart TV and countryside views, an ideal place to unwind after exploring the Abbey grounds or the wider Isle of Wight. Upstairs, two comfortable bedrooms provide restful accommodation.
The master bedroom features a double bed and en-suite shower room, while the second bedroom offers a king-size bed. Outside, guests can enjoy an enclosed walled garden with patio seating — perfect for morning coffee, afternoon sun, or evenings under the stars.
The garden is secure and suitable for a small dog. Location – Quarr Abbey, Fishbourne, Isle of Wight The setting of The Old Abbey Farmhouse is exceptional — not only within the Isle of Wight, but across the British Isles.
Unlike many historic abbey ruins, Quarr Abbey remains a living, working Benedictine monastery, offering daily services and welcoming visitors year-round. The Abbey grounds include woodland walks, open farmland, an art gallery, farm shop, visitor centre and café. Guests can experience the peaceful rhythm of monastic life while staying in complete comfort. Fishbourne sits between Wootton and Ryde, providing excellent access to Island attractions.

Returning guest to the farmhouse for my wife and I and Archie the cat. Everything perfect as usual. The building, location, facilities are great and for us it is hard to beat hence a returning customer. Looking forward to arranging our next visit later this year.
FAB-U-LOUS !!

Location Great! Accommodation Great! We had all we needed. It was my wife's birthday and Tracy (who was also GREAT!!) went above and beyond. We had a very happy stay at The Old Abbey Farmhouse and love the Isle of Wight. We'd have no hesitation in staying again.
Superb property

This was our 3rd stay at this property. The house is nicely decorated and is in a quiet location, there is everything that you need here. We were welcomed by the housekeeper, who had supplied an amazing welcome pack, enough for breakfast, so late night arrivals won't go hungry. We will definitely be returning to this superb property.
