Dog Days AwayGOOD DAYS. TOGETHER.Isle of Wight · England · Coast
Cowes suits an island escape with harbour activity, a short seafront outing and the green space around Northwood House. Choose the Fountain for a High Street inn or New Holmwood at Egypt Point for a different part of the waterfront. Check the terminal for your chosen crossing: Cowes and East Cowes are distinct arrival points, and the hotel journey still needs planning.

A BASE FOR YOUR BREAK
A dog-friendly hotel may only allow dogs in certain rooms. Arrange the right room directly before you pay.
The Fountain has limited dog rooms booked by phone, with fees and dining arrangements to confirm. New Holmwood accepts up to two dogs and lists £20 per night, with a reserved breakfast area outside its restaurant. Dogs may stay in the room only while you remain in the hotel; take them with you when going out.
High Street · Cowes
A High Street inn with limited dog rooms and a central Cowes setting. Reserve the dog allocation by phone.
The dog detailsWell-behaved dogs are accepted in pre-booked eligible rooms. Confirm the fee, dog numbers, meals and supervision; general pub access does not settle every dining arrangement.

Arrange the dog room and confirm the total charge directly before paying.
GOOD DAYS OUT, TOGETHER
Enjoy a short outing on the lawns and paths around Northwood House. The charitable trust welcomes well-behaved dogs, making this a useful alternative to beach time.
Keep your dog controlled and clean up promptly. Check event notices and respect other users; the park welcome does not establish access inside the house.
Official visitor information ↗Take a modest public seafront walk with views across the Solent. Use the current council map before stepping onto a beach section.
Specified Cowes beach zones exclude dogs from 1 May to 30 September. Follow signs, keep your dog close near roads and avoid rough-water conditions.
Official visitor information ↗AN UNHURRIED COUPLE OF DAYS
Check your crossing’s actual arrival point and route to the hotel, then settle into the reserved dog room. Take a short seafront outing if conditions suit. Confirm where dinner can be eaten with your dog, especially at New Holmwood where the restaurant excludes pets.
Visit Northwood Park for a manageable green-space outing before returning to the waterfront or preparing for the crossing home. Keep beach access conditional on the posted zones and season. There is no need to turn a Cowes stay into a full island driving tour.
A suggested plan, not a booked itinerary. Adapt it to your dog, the weather and current access.
THE DETAILS THAT MAKE A DIFFERENCE
New Holmwood cannot guarantee its limited dog-permitted breakfast tables without a reservation.
Check the terminal and onward route rather than assuming every ferry arrives beside your hotel.
Only while you remain in the hotel. You must take your dog with you when leaving the property.
Yes. The trust welcomes well-behaved dogs on the lawns and paths, with owners keeping them controlled and cleaning up.
