One VERY BIG Master Double Bedroom with KING-SIZE Bed.
One Children's bedroom with two single beds, which are fine for most adults too (just add one or two additional guests when you search/book.
- Dining Room.
- Modern Kitchen.
- Spacious and airy halls and stairwells.
- Patio with Garden furniture, Chiminea and BBQs.
- All bedrooms and the main bathroom have a sea view.
- Inflatable Canoe is available too (use at your own risk, but it's only two years old and has two life jackets).
- Only a 20-minute walk from the RedJet (down the high street, then the beach, and you're here :)
Location:
Quiet road leading up from the sea with a tree-filled municipal green and small park including a nature reserve (including Red Squirrels) with walkways up the side of the 'Cliff' on one side of the road (looking out over the sea) and residential-only buildings on the other side of the road, including this one.
Cliffside has its own carport/parking space, and there are usually more on the road too (no restrictions). It's a short, nice walk along the beach and then The Parade into the town (Cowes) high street, which takes about 15 minutes and a similar length nice walk along the waters edge in the other directions towards Gurnard (including the lovely Woodvale Pub for summer sundowners).
Upstairs, there are three bedrooms:
- Very large Master Double Bedroom with KING SIZE bed for you, with its own sink and is also adjacent to the upstairs bathroom, which is for your exclusive use (essentially 'en-suite'). Includes Mini Kettle, Mugs, Tea & Coffee, Hairdryer. Four towels provided. Bolt Lock so the bedroom is lockable from the inside.
- One smaller spare bedroom is available when you search/book for three or four guests. It's perfect for a children's bedroom since it has two single beds, but it's still fine for two adults happy with single beds (Perfect for Sailors, Cyclists and Walkers).
- One double bedroom with sea view, which I use when I'm here, which is a lot of the time, but if you're interested in renting the entire property for Cowes Week or Christmas, etc, then I can vacate the property for an additional charge (email to discuss rates). If you are a solo female traveller and feel more comfortable having the place to yourself, just let me know at the time of booking.
- Bathroom for your exclusive use (so is 'en-suite' really), with a modern spacious shower enclosed with a screen (no bath). Sink, W.C., Airing/Drying Cupboard, Ironing board and iron.
Ground floor:

********** NEW**********
- New!
Modern stylish kitchen with all facilities.
- New!
The downstairs corridor has been brought to the front of the house (it was at the back), so there's more light & warmth at the front of the house into the kitchen and dining room and a more natural flowing corridor from the front doorway into the Hall then kitchen and then onto the dining room.
- New!
Water mains supply pipe system, and replacement of old metal pipes with new plastic ones so water is as clean as it gets with much higher water pressure than before and the entire water system is generally much more efficient than before, also with brand new boiler and water tank cylinder and pipes, so water is now always hot and heating heats up fast.
- New!
Downstairs bathroom, which means the main upstairs bathroom adjacent to the master bedroom is now essentially 'en-suite' for the sole use of guests.
- New!
Gravel Pathway.
- Newly!
Decorated Master Bedroom and Dining Room with miscellaneous improvements and adjustments, such as making the master bedroom lockable from the inside
- New!
Carpets on the stairs and the upstairs hall/corridor (downstairs carpets have all been machine cleaned).
- New!
The garden patio wall has been rebuilt and re-painted & the patio paving stones have been pressure-washed clean.
- New!
New smoke and CO2 alarms have been fitted as well as a full gas safety inspection, resulting in achieving the CP12 Gas Safety Certification.
********* Available For Hire for Filming Locations **********
Cliffside is available for hire as a filming venue/location! It has already been used as a filming location for the TV program 'Saving Lives At Sea'. Some of the brave volunteers from the local RNLI were interviewed in the dining room about the rescues they have been involved in.
Message me to discuss options and availability. This listing is officially for the Master Bedroom, Bathrooms, Dining room and Kitchen and Garden and Patio area with all listed amenities. BUT you are welcome to access/use the rest of it and also book the second bedroom for an additional fee (just choose 3 or 4 guests when you search/book). I live here, so this is my main residence, and I work from home, so currently I'm generally around and available. The Kitchen and Bathroom are obviously for full use by guests. The dining room table will be laid for breakfast every morning with both muesli and cornflakes on offer, and usually croissants and tea and coffee available too.

Gorgeous property in an ideal location sea views and 10 min walk from cowes central. Beautifully kept but homely. Dan is the perfect host managing to allow you space to enjoy the property as your own but also on hand to assist or answer queries. Excellent value for money. Recommended!

During the recent Admirals Cup we stayed in Dan's B&B with our granddaughters (10&13). We had a lovely time, certainly due to the good care of our host. The location is very complete and clean. The breakfast table is excellent and the host is extremely hospitable. Highly recommended. Guus & Fredi (posted in name of my parents)
