Two stunning holiday apartments one above another.  Blue winds is a quirky 1 bedroom coastal flat with sea views across the Solent in the heart of West Cowes. With a top look out room which is amazing for relaxing and a huge deep bath which is perfect after a day’s sailing or sightseeing. Blue waves (ground floor) is the smarter coastal apartment thats just been totally refurbished with large spacious living areas and a new bathroom that has a large shower with 2 outlets.  Just 2 minutes’ walk from all the amenities of Cowes town centre, the marina and Red Jet to Southampton, and just a short walk to the beaches.
Cowes has a lively high street which is great for shopping with many boutique stores mixed in with more sailing orientated shops. With 2 supermarkets in the high street and Waitrose just over the floating bridge in East Cowes. There is a parade in the west part of the town and from there you can walk to Gurnard along the seafront. Of course sailing is very popular in Cowes and there are plenty of charter companies where you can rent vessels of all types. Plenty of restaurants from many different cuisines or just a coffee shop and a sneaky ice cream if you fancy. There is a lot to choose from!
Uploading your ID and Security deposit is collected via Chargeautomation. All prices are based on 2 sharing a bed. I strongly recommend purchasing a council car park permit as parking in free areas close to the town is very limited and I don’t want you driving around in circles looking for somewhere. There is parking to unload your car right outside the property though. *The property is a no shoes home with a max of 4 people allowed at 1 time due to it not being suitable for parties or events. *Blue Winds - Please note that the internal stairs are steep and narrow. Not for the physically challenged if you wish to go upstairs to the viewing room. Dogs are by prior arrangement ONLY with a dog fee. Only dogs over 1 years old. Thank you :)
