The Cottage is close to the chain ferry* about 50 metres, which is a convenient link with Cowes taking foot passengers and vehicles between the hours of 6am and midnight. It operates using chains which do rattle a bit and also noise from the ramp being lowered. Light sleepers may find this a bit noisy. So please take this into account when choosing Anchor Cottage. Most of our guests are fascinated and enjoy watching this piece of maritime history ply its trade.

Located in East Cowes, this cottage is by the sea.
