Home to Osborne, Queen Victoria’s beautiful Italianate holiday home. After exploring the many rooms, stunning grounds and pretty private beach, why not enjoy a stroll down to the seafront? It is a special view from East Cowes as it looks across the Solent to Cowes, plus children will enjoy the large paddling pool and play park while you enjoy a cup of tea and a slice of cake at the beachfront cafe.
The town itself is quite compact with a smattering of shops and cafes, plus a couple of very popular takeaways.
Southern Vectis bus route 5 is the main bus service between East Cowes and Newport. Route 4 links Ryde and East Cowes.
Travellers to and from Southampton are served by Red Funnel's vehicle ferry service.
