    East Cowes isn't really a tourist area, it is mostly residential. It's ideal for a base if you have your own transport, and don't mind driving round the island. The good thing is if you are sailing with Red Funnel, you are literally only just up the road. Waitrose, a doctors surgery and 2 pharmacies are all nearby, as is Osborne (Queen Victoria's island home). I think Osborne is the only nearby tourist attraction. I found East Cowes to be very quiet. Ideal after a long day exploring and having fun. However, if you want to stay right in the middle of things, you will be disappointed.

    We were only there for 2 days, went to Obourne House and the Steam Railway, really enjoyed both. Also walked along the prom at Shanklin Beach. We are in PREGO (Italian Reastraunt in East Cowes), very good food at reasonable prices. Ate in 1 day, take away the next, both lovely

    There is really nothing in East Cowes, however it is a 2 min ferry ride to Cowes. The ferry goes every few mins, either foot passenger or car. No booking needed. The ferry puts you in the middle of town. Highly recommend to stay in East Cowes and ferry to Cowes. Far less expensive.

    An easy walk down to the waterfront.

    An easy walk down to the waterfront. Take the floating bridge {chain ferry} across to Cowes. Lovely little town to walk around. Good pub called The Lifeboat within walking distance of the Prince of Wales, good food and great view of the boats.

    Liked the attitude of most people around the shops as friendly and helpful. Does have quite a few hills to walk up and down so not suitable for people who struggle walking a lot Tried the chain ferry for a first time and it is quick. Hardest part for us was going back on the car ferry as no seats for us to sit down and very full. People were not spaced out as they were on our trip over there. Not enjoyable standing 1 hour on a evening.

    Easy Cowes isn’t as big as Cowes, but they have a few shops, small Co-op and some restaurants, we ate one night at Sea Breeze fish and chip restaurant, the chips were lovely, and very large potions. An ideal base, close to the ferry port, and most other places.

    Compact but comfortable, and very nicely presented, little house in a small courtyard development in East Cowes. We had our two (young adult) daughters and our dog with us and it didn't feel crowded. Good location, easy access to West Cowes with the chain ferry adjacent. Vida's neighbour Noel is one of the permanent residents there and a great source of local knowledge such as up to date recommendations on dog friendly places to eat.

    We loved the history of this hotel and the rooms and grounds were beautiful. We had dinner at the hotel and were also very impressed with the service and the food. The staff bent over backwards to accommodate us and our request for family to join us for our evening meal. It was a perfect evening and we sat outside enjoying the view of the garden. Great choice of breakfast the next morning in the Victoria Room.

Very friendly and helpful staff, great breakfast selection in a lovely dining room, stylish and chic period hotel and furnishings, beautiful lounge with interesting furniture and model yacht, good separate restaurant for dinner and we had a very enjoyable stay.

    Albert Cottage is one of the prettier boutique hotels I have had the pleasure of staying in. The staff was all exceptionally kind and pleasant and went out of their way to accommodate us. We ate two breakfasts and one dinner there and the food was exquisite. the bathroom in the Victoria bedroom suite was wonderful with a heated towel rack and deep, claw-foot tub.

    Really lovely place to stay, so different from a normal hotel/b&b. Would recommend to anyone. The children absolutely loved staying on a boat. The owners are absolutely lovely, my son left something behind and they posted it back to us straight away. Would love to return.

    Modern cottage, well equipped and located a few minutes drive from East Cowes. You can admire the stars through the velux window at night and have a proper break from town hustle. Hosts proposed a cot and high chair for our daughter which was much appreciated.

    10 minutes walk from East Cowes Ferry Terminal, Ferry to West Cowes and Bus Stop. The Lifeboat pub nearby was nice. Also walkable to Osborne House 20-30 mins. As described, a simple home stay, with a friendly host.
