The Isle of Wight
The Isle of Wight, situated off the South Coast of England, is becoming an ever-more popular location for second and permanent homes. Originally made popular by Queen Victoria, who had her maritime residence at Osborne, the Island is famous for sailing in the Solent; for Cowes Week; for its beautiful coastline including sandy beaches and The Needles; spectacular countryside and long sunshine hours. There are now many more facilities than once were the case, Sainsbury, Tesco and M&S all now have a presence as have other national chains. Communication and transport links are excellent; regular car ferries connect with the national motorway network and fast catamarans have connections via Southampton and Portsmouth to direct trains to London Waterloo which can be reached within 2 hours of leaving the Island shore. Government-
funded schools are numerous and independent schools thrive on the Island with some children attending prep and public schools on the
Mainland. Leisure opportunities abound - walking, riding, paragliding, hang-gliding, and team sports - including a cricket academy - as well as sailing, wind surfing and other water sports. Good transport links enable day trips to the shopping centres of West Quay, Southampton and Gunwharf Quays, Portsmouth.
East Cowes
East Cowes is a coastal town on the north side of the Island and has an excellent range of facilities and amenities including shops, doctors, primary schools, marina, 9 hole golf course and of course Osborne House, the former marine residence of Queen Victoria. SEEDA (South East England Development Agency) are leading the redevelopments of the town. Creditable investment is set to greatly increase the amenities available. There is easy access to the regular car and passenger ferry services direct to Southampton (55 minutes) and a floating bridge ferry linking to the famous yachting town of Cowes. Both Cowes and east Cowes have extensive marina facilities. Bus services are available into the Island’s capital town of Newport (about 5 miles) and the coastal resort of Ryde (about 7 miles).
