About this property

Boat House located in the sailing mecca of Cowes

This charming End-of-Terrace two bed cottage in the centre of Cowes, sleeps up to 4 guests and one dog comfortably. Conveniently located close to the marina, shops, bars, café’s & restaurants, with the Red Jet only a couple of minutes’ walk away, making the Boat House the perfect car free holiday cottage. Boat House has a welcoming open plan living area with seating and dining for 4, with all the home comforts we now expect such as Wi-Fi, Smart TV and a Bluetooth speaker. A wonderful little patio garden with table, chairs and a charcoal bbq can be found through the thoughtfully equipped kitchen. Up on the first floor is the master double bedroom and family bathroom. Moving on up into the eaves of the cottage onto the second floor, you will find the twin bedroom, with a small window and Velux window providing plenty of airflow through the room. For added comfort there is an air-conditioning unit for those occasional extra warm nights. All in all the perfect little cottage for just meandering through Cowes, simply watching the yachts go by, or sampling food & drink from one of the many delicious cafés and restaurants that can be found on your doorstep.

Please enquire about discounted car ferry tickets.

Lovely stay
The house is very nice and in a perfect location. The only thing negative is a slight smell of damp downstairs. But it didn't impact our enjoyment of weekend

Perfect little holiday home
The boat house was beautiful! So cosy and perfect for a family of 3 - my daughter loved the room at the top. Beds were all comfy, shower was powerful and hot. Kitchen well equipped. Great fishmongers [JBs] and butchers nearby. Amazing fruit and veg at Rosalie's of Cowes. Short drive to everywhere - we had a great day walking around Osbourne house/gardens and another to visit the model village and down to Ventnor beach. We also ate at local gems Number 3 and Murrays seafood restaurant- again a stones throw from the property - What a great place to relax for half term.
Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2021
