Host profile image
We have lived and worked in Cowes for over 32 years. We have travelled the world but still love Cowes despite living in the Caribbean for over 8 years.

Why they chose this property

We viewed many many properties prior to purchase of the apartment in 2015 looking for THE apartment - and finally we found No 47. Its fantastic location and views sold it straight away and we still love it. We hope you will as well.

What makes this property unique

Unique benefits - well its got to be its location and full panoramic windows looking over the marina, Solent and River Medina. Great location to view Cowes week yacht racing and the famous fireworks.
