Seabreeze Cottage

Step into Seabreeze Cottage and the layout works immediately. Ground level holds the living room, dining room and kitchen, all flowing toward a back garden with patio. The kitchen has everything for proper cooking—electric oven, induction hob, microwave and coffee machine—so you can eat in or venture out. A shower room completes the ground floor. Upstairs, the first floor bedroom is kingsize with an en-suite bathroom including a bath. The second floor has another kingsize bedroom and a single pull-out bed, served by a second shower room. Three bedrooms, three bathrooms, sleeping six: the layout means everyone gets their own space and nobody queues for the shower.

Cowes sits moments away, its waterfront busy with sailing activity and lined with cafés, restaurants and independent shops. The town comes alive during Cowes Week with regattas and live music, though there's plenty to do in quieter months too. Coastal paths lead from the doorstep toward beaches and quieter coves, and the wider Isle of Wight—with its historic houses, nature reserves and family attractions—spreads out beyond. Heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and wifi are included. One car can park on the property. Dogs are welcome. The cottage does not permit smoking.
