I’ve just decided to have a few days walking on the IoW in August. I’ve booked two nights in East Cowes, and I’m looking for a third night somewhere south or east. I walk a lot, so will do most of my travel on foot - three hours’ walking is a nice afternoon stroll for me - but I’m willing to use public transport if time is a factor. I’m a single healthy woman in my 60s.
So, I have:
Day one afternoon/evening around Cowes, having walked from Ryde
Day two whole day starting from and ending up in East Cowes
Day three starting in East Cowes with as yet unplanned destination b&b
Day four starting at unplanned destination b&b and ending up in Ryde by 5pm for the ferry.
I’d value suggestions for any places I should visit, and for the as yet unplanned destination b&b/location on day three. I expect to do Osborne House on the morning of day two, but other than that, no plans. I’m not into big or organised attractions etc, but like the small and the odd. The only activity I plan is walking, so no water activities etc. I prefer small, local places to eat rather than posh, so if you know of any good places for an evening meal, that too would be helpful.
