An Isle of Wight village has been named among the "most desirable" to live in in the UK, according to The Telegraph.

The paper selected 54 locations from across Britain, in conjunction with research from Savills, that were deemed “most desirable” in terms of costs and the lifestyle they offer.

Among those featured was Fishbourne, found on the northeastern side of the Island.

More than half of the estate agents working for Savills across the country reported a rise in demand in the most desirable countryside locations, with 57% saying they were unable to buy where they wanted.

Frances Clacy, analyst at Savills, told The Telegraph: “People want villages that have a bit of everything, from schools to stunning countryside, with accessibility to cities and transport infrastructure. Less well-trumpeted factors count too, such as the main road through the village should only lead to other villages.”

The full list of 54 villages on the list can be seen on The Telegraph page here.

Fishbourne

Fishbourne was the Isle of Wight's representative on the list with some of its appeal coming from its easy access to Portsmouth and "idyllic" beaches.

Sailing at Royal Victoria Yacht Club will most likely be a further positive for those looking to move to the area.

The village has proven to be an ideal place for buyers who can work flexibly, although it is not the cheapest to move to.

Average house prices in the area are listed as £509,356.
