The Glass House is a beautiful detached holiday home located on the sea edge in Cowes. Fantastic panoramic views of the sea are visible from almost every room and a large terrace allows for eating and entertaining while overlooking the sea. A host of maritime activity provides a beautiful spectacle and frequent yacht racing brings a burst of colour to the sea views. The sea is less then 40 paces from the house and the centre of Cowes can be reached in a few minutes on foot where you will find attractive boutique shops as well as a selection of restaurants. The town is probably most famous for the Cowes Week event in August and The Glass House is ideally positioned to enjoy the experience.
Everything about the architecture of The Glass House seems to have been done to take maximum advantage of the beautiful seaside location. Light and comfortable rooms make the most of the sea views and natural light attractively illuminates the house.
