Further details for this vacation apartment rental in Cowes, United Kingdom

Additional Information on Cowes: There is a full programme of events which cater for the professional and amateur sailor, as well as the keen spectator, particularly throughout the summer months. Attractions include the many regattas, the start of the famous Round the Island race, Cowes Week, Dinghy Week, the Fastnet Race, Little Britain, various power boat competitions, not to mention the carnivals, balls and outside arenas which cater to these thrilling sporting challenges. Cowes and East Cowes grew from a huddle of fishermen's shacks around two coastal forts built by Henry VIII on opposite banks of the River Medina and named after the two off-shore sandbanks or cows. The towns are linked by an old-fashioned chain ferry and have a tradition of fine ship building, dating from the reign of Elizabeth I. Then came the yacht building industry and the rest is history! Many people choose to have a base in the centre of Cowes and it is now possible to do so in the best possible situation and style.

How to get to Cowes: Red Funnel fast passenger ferry from Southampton to Cowes every 30 minutes. Red Funnel vehicle ferry from Southampton to East Cowes, opposite the apartment. Wight link from Portsmouth to Fishbourne and from Lymington to Yarmouth. Fast train service from London to Southampton, (approx. 1 hour 15 minutes) with connection to the Red Funnel ferries.

Guest's Comments: 'Fabulous flat, wonderful weather, great views.' G&C Black 'Fantastic apartment, really enjoyed using it, could not fault it, thank you. Can I book it again in May?' J. Thornton

Review Submitted: November 8, 2009 Date of Stay: November 2009
First class accommodation in a very convenient location for exploring the island, with a good selection of restaurants and pubs within walking distance of the flat,which was spotless and the furnishings of high quality. Always something to look at with the passing boats and ferries.
Even though we booked at short notice the owner and agent were more than helpful. Car parking is a bonus. We would definately rebook if we visit the island again and thoroughly recommend it for its comfort and convenience.

We would thoroughly recommend this apartment in Cowes.
Very spacious and spotlessly clean. The owner and the agent were most helpful and friendly.
It's great to watch the ferries sail past the window and also the chain ferry can be seen through the bedroom window.
5 min walk into Cowes with its lots of shops and restaurant.

Review Submitted: August 26, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
I would throughly recommend both this apartment and cowes for a holiday. The apartment is spotlessly clean, well maintained and furnished to a high standard. Customer service was excellent from both the owner and the local agent. The views from the veranda are superb, with the waterfront being a hive of activity. I would recommend the boat trip to Portsmouth naval dockyard with solent and whiteline cruises (departs just next to the apartment) very interesting, informative and entertaining.
