The gardens are landscaped creating a very private and low-maintenance outlook to the house with various decks and terraces for outdoor dining, all with sunny aspects as well as space for storage and entertaining. To the front is a large sweeping driveway with off-road parking for several cars.

Bay House is situated on the edge of picturesque Shanklin Old Village, within a short walk to Rylstone Gardens and moments from the cliff steps leading down to Shanklin's beaches or along the coastal path to Luccombe, Bonchurch and Ventnor. The amenities of Shanklin, including a range of shops, restaurants and theatre are a short walk away. A train service to Ryde provides access to passenger ferry services to Portsmouth, connecting with trains to London, the entire journey time taking two and a half hours. There are also plenty of beaches, bays and coves nearby and there are stunning walks upon the Luccombe and Wroxall Downs or along the coastal paths. The area has an excellent micro-climate and nearby Ventnor has botanical gardens, further award-winning restaurants and a fish market in its sandy bay.
