Introduce your pet to the island life at this inviting six-person property in Cowes, on the Isle of Wight. You’ll be right in the thick of things in this renowned sailing town, with a dog-friendly pub at the end of your road (150 metres) and plenty of shops in the streets surrounding your temporary dwelling. Nearby, take your pets for walks up to Egypt Point (1 mile), the northernmost point of the isle. For rural adventures, the island’s Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (5.5 miles) is the place to be.
You’ll enter the property directly into the inviting lounge, which dog-friendly flooring, a corner sofa for relaxation and a Smart TV to keep you entertained in the evenings. A charming coastal theme runs through the place, with carefully selected artwork, cushions and artefacts all adding to the appeal. Relax with a cuppa in the attractive kitchen-diner, an airy space with French doors leading out to the enclosed decked garden. A central island creates a spot for socialising and chatting about the day’s adventures. Outside, descend seven steps to reach a charming space with comfortable rattan furniture. This is a fantastic spot for you and your furry companion to bask in the sun.
Everything is within easy reach on this small island, which extends just 22.5 miles from east to west. Once you’ve explored the shops and cafes in your vicinity, why not catch the local ferry across to East Cowes (0.5 miles) for a stroll along the promenade? You may well be craving feeling some warm sand beneath your feet/paws – while the island bans dogs on its main resort beaches during summer, you’ll find pet-friendly sections in Ryde (7.5) miles. Quieter beaches, such as Seagrove (10.5 miles) and Bembridge (13 miles), welcome doggies all year round. Other local attractions you can visit with your pet are Quarr Abbey (5.5 miles), Yarmouth Castle (11.5 miles) and The Needles (16.5 miles).
