There is a double bedroom with king-size bed and storage facilities. The kitchen is fully equipped with fridge, microwave, a combined washing machine / dryer. Guests can enjoy the living room which features a sofa, electric rising/reclining chair, TV and dining table.

We stayed in one of the Stable Cottages. Our Stable Cottage was the ideal retreat. It was in an idyllic location very close to the beach. It was extremely quiet and peaceful down a country lane. Nigel's detailed instructions made it easy to find the cottage. The cottage was very well equipped and lacked nothing in the way of facilities. The bed was extremely comfortable.There were plenty of towels provided. We liked the wet room instead of a traditional bathroom. The milk and eggs left in the fridge for us were a nice touch. Nigel was a very attentive host and keen to make sure all his guests were happy. We felt welcome.

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.

Barbara did some changes in the room setup which I didn't ask for ahead - many thanks! The attitude, the breakfast - just like being a guest of the family. It's also a short walking distance from the center and the Cowes Yacht Haven. A very comfortable and clean room, with a very nice shower and bathroom outside the room (but still private).

This was an incredible stay, thanks to Ricky and his beautifully appointed home in a terrific location!

Thank you, Ricky and George(!) for your kind welcome, goodies, and helpful books on the local area. Nothing was lacking and it was an incredibly clean and comfy stay. Thank you!!! I'll be back!

    We stayed at 33 Solent village, in Thorness Bay holiday park. The static caravan was awesome. As a base camp, coming and going from our travels around the island it had everything we needed and wanted. A home from home for sure. It comfortably and easily slept 2 adults and our 3 children. The wrap around decking was a bonus too. Really loved the holiday and as with all good holidays wished it lasted longer.

    The Villa Rothsay is a beautiful hotel in an incredible location - we had a view out over the water so could watch all the boats go by, and it was just a few minutes' walk into Cowes for all the (excellent) pubs and restaurants. The breakfasts were delicious; the honesty bar was well stocked and in a gorgeous Victorian room full of sailing memorabilia, and the staff really could not have been more helpful and welcoming. I can't recommend highly enough and I really hope to return one day!
