1 Westwood Close

About this property

Nestled on the outskirt of Cowes, a bustling port town upon the Isle of Wight is 1 Westwood Close, a fabulous, three-bedroom home. Just a short journey away from a hub of amenities and the beach, 1 Westwood Close offers five guests a well-equipped base for a self-catered stay, complete with a pet-friendly garden, open-plan living space, and flexible sleeping arrangements. Park up on the private driveway, making your way into your new abode. Be welcomed by the open-plan living space, where you can unwind on the plush sofas, prepare meals, and gather as the wine is poured and the conversions flow over dinner. If the weather allows, make the most of the enclosed patio, where you can dine alfresco as your furry companion roams freely in the sunshine. Return indoors to complete your nightly routine in the shower room, before selecting between three well-appointed bedrooms, including two king-size (zip/link), and a single. Awaken to a fresh coffee in the suntrap conservatory, before heading into the town to dine out, stock up on the essentials, visit Cowes Golf Course, people watch at Cowes Harbour Shepards Marina, enjoy a seaside stroll along Gurnard Bay, or brush up on your local knowledge at East Cowes Heritage Centre. Travelling towards Newport, stop off at the Monkey Haven - Primate Rescue Centre, and the Butterfly World IOW, ideal for animal lovers, whilst the impressive structure of Carisbrooke Castle is waiting to be toured, also hosting several visitor events. Enjoy your time in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, travelling south to the vantage point of Whale Chine, or head north for a day at Ryde Beach, followed by a bite to eat along the pier. Escape to the Isle of Wight at 1 Westwood Close.

The bustling port of Cowes is situated by the mouth of the river Medina, and is divided into two distinct towns, linked by the regular floating bridge chain ferry. Both communities have much to offer visitors, with West Cowes known as a world famous yachting centre, with superb facilities for all kinds of watersports, as well as being considered the cycling gateway to the island with the National Cycle Route 23 running through it. It also has a beach and a wealth of excellent restaurants, inns, and plenty of interesting niche shops; there is something for everyone with a fabulous vibe. East Cowes is best known for Osborne House, Queen Victoria’s Italian style country retreat - a tour of the sumptuous royal apartments and magnificent gardens is a must. Cowes is an ideal base for exploring the rest of the island, such as sandy beaches, lovely walking country, picturesque chines and many family attractions such as the The Needles and the Isle of Wight music festival.
