Neighbourhood information

What a wonderful place the Isle of Wight is to live and Cowes is just the icing on the cake; just 30 mins drive from anywhere and everywhere you'll want to get to. The Caledon is in a great location, five minutes walk up the hill from the bustling centre of Cowes with its pretty high street with individual shops, great restaurants, lively pubs, ferry links to Southampton and the yacht haven, sailing clubs and marinas for which Cowes is so well known. The Island offers beaches of every shape and size, from the open soft sandy beaches of Ryde and Sandown to the glorious little coves and bays, that mean you can always find somewhere out of the wind to relax in the wonderful sunshine.......and if beaches aren't your thing, then how about a trip to The Needles, Osborne House, Carisbrooke Castle or one of the beautiful Manor Houses that are scattered all over? Once you are done exploring its time to eat, right?! Don't worry, we have plenty of suggestions of where to eat....either Eating in Cowes close enough to The Caledon that you can walk back after a little glass of wine, or some of our personal favourites for when you are out and about.
