Immerse yourselves in the life of buzzing Cowes with a stay in this bright and comfortable cottage just metres from the heart of the historic town. Ideal for couples or small families with older children, it welcomes two furry friends for four-pawed adventures, and has a choice of outside spaces for mutts to chase their tails.

Take the three steps up to the front door, lead your hounds inside this beautifully decorated property and you’ll enter straight into the vibrant lounge. Here, there’s a choice of comfy seating and a Smart TV, so if you decide to stay in you can cosy up, your furry besties at your feet, and stream a movie marathon. The galley kitchen contains everything you’ll need for hearty breakfasts and delicious suppers, and there’s room on the tiled floor to pop down bowls for water and dog food, too. Up one step from the far end of the kitchen, you’ll find the elegant family bathroom. Enjoy your meals together in the light and spacious dining room, where a wood burner offers additional cosiness in the winter months. From here, an open staircase leads to the first floor and the two pretty bedrooms, a double and a small 4’ double. For fresh air and al fresco drinks or dining, there’s a suntrap back garden where you can light the BBQ and grill some delicious local produce, and a small decked front area where you can sit and enjoy distant views of Cowes Harbour.

Wander through fabulous Cowes, exploring its boutiques, pubs and eateries and enjoying its maritime atmosphere. Mutts on leads can accompany you into the fascinating Boat Shed Museum, while for pups who love zoomies on the sand, Ryde Beach, 12.5 miles, is mostly unrestricted all year round.

A lovely cottage in a fantastic location! A home from home, Jays cottage had everything we needed and the addition of a welcome basket and a bottle of wine in the fridge was a very pleasant surprise. We will definitely be staying here again.

Excellent location in Cowes. Two minute walk from many restaurants and cafes and a M&S Food Hall.
