Each room here will provide you with a TV and tea/coffee making facilities. Featuring a bath or shower, the bathrooms also come with a hairdryer and free toiletries. Some rooms boast a balcony and views of the sailing boats on the ocean.

When you walk through the front door, expect to be taken back in time by the interior… absolutely stunning! Margaret was very welcoming and couldn’t have been more helpful, offering lifts into Cowes when raining and kindly bringing our luggage down to The Redjet Terminal on our departure. Our bedroom, with amazing views over the Solent, was comfortable and clean. An exceptional breakfast was served in the downstairs dining room, again having fabulous vistas. There was a well stocked honesty bar located in the comfortable lounge. We couldn’t have asked for anything more during our short stay on The Isle if Wight…we will be back, thank you.

Within 10 minutes’ walk of the East and West Cowes ferry terminals, Endeavour House provides luxurious bed and breakfast on the Isle of Wight’s northern coast. This guest house offers free on-site parking and Wi-Fi.

A very typical well-run British Bed and Breakfast. Very clean, and very comfortable, Barbara was the consummate host. The location was ideal for us being a 10-minute walk from both Cowes seafront and the Round House. We had no car, so the bus stop very close by was ideal for getting into Newport or further afield. The food was excellent with the opportunity to order from the breakfast menu by text the night before. We will be staying again when we re-visit the Island.

Located in Cowes in the Isle of Wight region, Nutcroft, Cowes has a patio. This property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. The property is non-smoking and is situated 24 km from Blackgang Chine.

The property was spotlessly clean, very well appointed and in an absolutely perfect location with a large car parking space. Add to this the small courtyard area with a BBQ (too cold for us to use but a useful area for our small dog to roam as it was well fenced in).. What more could you want?

    We loved the location right on the beachside, and all facilities were well thought through. It was great having access to the beach to swim, and to enjoy the fire pit in the evening. The chalet was clean and everything was to a high speculation. Perfect for a quiet and relaxing break.

    The bedroom and bathroom were lovely. They were very clean and both felt very luxurious and comfortable. The location of the property was also great, being practically on the beach. It also had a lovely garden. Dan was a great host and made us feel very welcome - he was good company but didn’t intrude at all. Overall, a great stay and we will certainly stay again if we visit the Isle of Wight again.

    Fantastic location for a family with children. Just 3-4 minutes walk to a pebbles and sand beach with fossils, it is quite far from the town so most of the time we had the beach just for us. The cottage was clean and well-equipped, we had everything we needed. Nigel was very friendly, let my children feed the cows and showed us the farm. Short drives into Cowes, Yarmouth, Sandown and other seaside towns with beaches, dinosaur museums etc. We shall come back.
