Paula (owner) gave us the friendliest welcome, and throughout our stay, she was always able to provide ideas for exploring the island, etc. Breakfast was nicely presented and prepared with plenty of options to choose from. The room was very comfortable and stylishly furnished. The location is good as it was only a 10 minute walk to Cowes. The bus stop is closeby also. (It is very easy to navigate your way around on the buses). Would be very happy to stay again...

Cowes is quite busy and noisy, but we expected that.

Cowes is quite busy and noisy, but we expected that. If you want a quiet IOW break, choose one of the resorts on the other side of the island, but for the buzz of the world's yachting capital stick to Cowes. Bus services to all parts of the island are frequent and plentiful.

Cowes is a lovely town and a perfect location for boaters! The Osborne House is a quick (4 min) ferry ride to East Cowes and accessible buy bus. We had a great food and the people were super helpful as they did not have a tourist information center.

It is a small coastal town nicely located near many tourist attractions such as Osbourne House, Carisbrooke Castle and Newport town and the Isle of Wight Steam Railway. It is reasonably lengthy to reach however I travelled via public transport, and have to say the bus system is very well connected and covers the whole Island. From Cowes and Newport you get to Ryde, Sandown and Ventnor as well as Yarmouth. The towns aren’t too big so are easily walkable and there are some lovely independent shops and cafes. I particularly enjoyed visiting the Medina Bookshop, and crossing the river from West to East Cowes via the Floating Bridge. All in all, an amazing experience!

Lovely little place, we enjoyed our walks around the area and relaxing and watching the boats etc. Very easy to get to, loads of eateries and pubs. If you like Yachts and boats then you will be in heaven, but even if you dont theres still plenty to keep you occupied. Its also very easy to move around the island from Cowes whether you drive or use the bus service.

Easy to get around on foot.

Easy to get around on foot. Some lovely local produce & traders as well as the usual High St stores all in close proximity. Lots of good local friendly pubs. Osborne House(connection to queen Victoria & Albert) is within walking distance with a 2 minute trip on the floating bridge (£1.50 return ticket)-this is a National Heritage building. Distinctive Royal mail postbox still in use here & if you use it, the postal stamp with reflect the Victoria & Albert connection. You can visit the tearoom & gift shop but need to pay to enter gardens & house.

I know Cowes well because my mother in law lived there so...

I know Cowes well because my mother in law lived there so for many years I regularly visited her and stayed in the town. Since she died I have not visited as often and hadn't been to the Isle of Wight for two years until I stayed this autumn. It was a quick visit, but the shops in Cowes and the waterfront areas and town beaches are always interesting. I wouldn't stay quite as late in the year again as many places shut at the end of October or by early November, and if they're not shut completely they can be quiet and shut early (eg some of the out of town shops). Even the Cowes shops were beginning to wind down about 4pm on the Saturday and there weren't many people about. So do go but the warmer months and early autumn are probably better as there's more going on and there are more options. We ate at Mojac's and the Pier Inn, both excellent places for evening meals. The Pier Inn is also a pub but has a separate dining area. It was nice to go in pubs and for them not to be crowded but they do shut bang on 11pm.

Great location, beautifully clean, lovely hosts, more like a small hotel than a b&b. Beautiful views from the sea view rooms. Honestly bar is a great touch, good quality coffee and tea in the room. We have been coming to Cowes for years this is definitely in our top two places to stay, and considering the price this will definitely our new go to place to stay. A small fridge in the room would have been great.

Stayed two nights at the chalets in East Cowes and absolutely loved it. Stunning sea views, peaceful location, and a beautifully crafted wooden interior full of charm. The atmosphere was relaxed, and beautiful and A big Thanks to kuki . If anyone is heading to the Isle of Wight, definitely stay here — it’s well worth it and just a 20-minute drive from the East Cowes ferry. Highly recommend!

Great boutique hotel in Cowes. Our room, Shamrock, was very well appointed with a balcony and views across the Solent. The bed was so comfy we slept like a babies. The breakfast is outstanding and the service is exceptional. We would definitely recommend Villa Rothsay, it is home from home.
