If you were looking for cottages like Smugglers’ Run, how about trying these:

Smugglers' Run is a waterside property overlooking the River Medina and across to the sailing town of Cowes. It would suit a family or a couple in need of a little extra space.

The balcony is what makes this charming holiday retreat particularly appealing. Watch pleasure boats, working ships and the famed floating bridge from this first-floor perch.

Inside, an inviting living/dining-room also provides you with interesting views across the river. The galley kitchen, while bijou, is likely to have everything you need to ensure an unforgettable holiday.

On the ground floor you will find two bright bedrooms, one a double, the other a twin room. The family bathroom completes the accommodation.

Although Smugglers' Run is set in a quiet location on the riverside, you are only a few minutes' walk from a choice of local amenities including cafes, restaurants, pubs and supermarkets. East Cowes, where the flat is situated, benefits from Waitrose, a small Co-op and any number of pubs and cafes. Across the river is the larger town of Cowes, where you will find a variety of friendly independent shops, as well as more pubs and eateries. There is private parking at Smuggler's Run, so it is easy to bring your car along and enjoy an Island road trip during your stay.
