Fat Badger Kilo Heading For Coweserries leave for the Isle of Wight from Southampton, Portsmouth, and Lymington. The island became popular with the Victorians who came to enjoy the sunny climate, long sandy beaches and pretty fishing hamlets. Osborne House at East Cowes was designed by Prince Albert and became Queen Victoria's favourite family home. Tourism is still very important and the island is a popular destination during the summer months. A number of national and international yachting events are staged at Cowes and ships are rarely out of view of the island's coastline. Inland, roads pass through attractive countryside and villages with thatched cottages and colourful gardens.Click Here For a List of Links to Inns with Websites

910.jpg (22151 bytes)910b.jpg (15196 bytes)Located just a few yards from the sea, the Union is a pleasant & cosy little inn which gets popular with the sailing crowd. No credit cards are accepted but the food & beer is worth the slight inconvenience and the local cashpoints are not too far away. A nautical theme is to be expected in Cowes and the Union doesn't disappoint.
