There are many restaurants and pubs offering a variety of fare including good pub fare, Indian, Thai, the local catch of the day and good old fashioned fish and chips.
There are a number of guide books at the house providing details of the many lovely walks on the Island. You will also find a stack of leaflets providing details of the many attractions and activities on the Island.
There are lots dedicated cycleways - many following the course of disused railway lines, signed routes, miles of bridleways and quiet country lanes as an alternative to main roads.
The Isle of Wight plays host to 8 golf clubs, from 9 to 18 holes.
You will also find plenty of things to keep the children entertained on the Isle of Wight.
Owner Location Comment
Cowes is a splendid base for many of the Island's attractions, including walking, cycling, golf and cultural trips around some of the historic buildings.
Cowes has narrow streets and as well as many shops selling the latest sailing gear there are a number of local craft shops where you can usually find that unique present for the man or woman who has everything!
There are some lovely walks within close proximity. From Regatta Cottage you can follow the circular walk along the river path to Newport and back. There are a number of guide books at the house providing details of this and other walks on the Island.
There are many restaurants offering a variety of fare including Indian, Thai, the local catch of the day and good old fashioned fish and chips.
There is an abundance of pubs in Cowes. Allegedly, there are more pubs per square mile than in any other town in the UK! Many of the pubs do food and The Anchor often has live bands playing during the summer months.
