what’s on in Cowes?

Cowes is a wonderful seaport town on the north shores of the Isle of Wight. It is perhaps most famous for its annual ‘Cowes Week’ which is one of the longest-running sporting events in the UK – first taking place in 1826! It is one of the world’s largest sailing regattas regularly featuring over 1,000 vessels in 40 different races. A must-see event that takes place in August of each year, Woodside Coastal is the perfect base from which to enjoy this spectacle.

However, Cowes isn’t just a great place to visit in August. There is plenty to do at other points in the year, and our holiday lodges are fully-equipped for any month in which you make your visit- air-conditioned and centrally heated with strong double glazing, our lodges are perfect at any time of the year.

Other key attractions in or near the town include the Sir Max Aitken Museum where many of nautical artefacts relating to the island’s history are showcased, as well as The Wight Military and Heritage Museum. These are just a few of the many attractions on offer in this wonderful region – a must-visit for all ages!
