Starboard, Yarmouth
The enchanting Starboard provides light and open accommodation, located on a picturesque shingle beach and coastal path close to Fort Victoria Country Park. Built on the site of a former boathouse, this open-plan studio apartment provides panoramic views across the sea, an ideal romantic cottage for couples.
The apartment has a double bed, a well-equipped kitchen with an electric oven and hob, a microwave, a fridge, a dining area, and a sitting area, including a TV with Freeview and electric convector heaters. The shower room is separate and includes a shower, basin, and WC. Outside is access to a private slipway. Dogs are welcome at £10 per week.
Explore the charming streets of Yarmouth, the oldest town on the Isle of Wight, and its many shops and inns. Pay a visit to Henry VIII’s castle. A cafe is next to the Starboard apartment.
One can see all kinds of watercraft from the busy harbour, and the terminal is used for regular mainland ferry crossings to Lymington. Yarmouth’s pier and sailing club jetty is a good spot for crabbing.

View To Die For!!!
Excellent location for a pleasant relaxing holiday,And a view thats quite spendid.What more do you need from a hoiday!!
Truly relaxing with a magical view
From booking through Sykes with their helpful, friendly staff to being greeted by the owner of the property it was hassle free. Starboard is well equipped and comfortable and a magical place to stay with the shore on your doorstep. Everything is within easy reach of Yarmouth and you can get the ferry almost to your doorstep. It was our second stay at Starboard and we cant wait to go back. Thanks Sykes and John.
Location, Location, Location
Amazing, the beach is right outside the patio door, woodland with walks are behind, fabulous old fort with attractions to your left, cafe with garden to your right. This place is heaven. The accomodation is basic but the location makes up for it. Cannot wait to return.
Only a hop, skip and a jump to the sea
Compact but cosy, this boathouse is perfectly situated for a beachside holiday. Only 10 minutes stroll to the the village along the beach or a longer coastal walk in either direction. The dreamy can spend all day or evening just watching the boats and the changing light and waves right from the armchair, outside area or on the beach in front of the property.
We knew exactly where the property was situated and it is in an area of the Isle of Wight we like very much. There are a number of eateries very close by (including next door) but that did not detract at all. Being directly on the beach made it very easy to take the dog for a quick stroll. I had a sneaky feeling that the quality of the property would be very high and we were not disappointed.
Loved all of it! Really relaxing holiday in a good location and accommodation. Great view and the dog loved being with us and enjoyed her morning walk along the beach. She looked very down when we returned home!
The magic from listening to the waves whilst sitting in bed. The view was fantastic. Our dog Cassie loved looking through the French windows over the Solent and walks along the sea front. The most romantic of holidays.
After a long hard year of working it was everything we could have hoped to charge our batteries for a new year.
You can't experience the magic truly unless you visit!
Can't wait until we come back again
The site of the cottage was superb being right on the beach.
Loved being so close to the sea. Property was a joy to go back to each day.
We really loved being on the seafront waking up to hear the sea was wonderful!!
A very tranquil and relaxing place to be and we can't wait to go back in March! The Sykes staff couldn't have been more helpful when it came to booking. It was very stress free.
Friendly, helpful owner and a truly romantic setting, this was our second time at Starboard and we cannot wait to go back again!
The location of the cottage was good. This is the second cottage we have rented from Sykes and it will not be the last. Thanks to the staff.
Superb location, a nice clean no fuss holiday unit for two. Perfect quiet base for exploring the Isle of Wight.
Amazing location, directly on the beach, fabulous. Perfect for dogs and an ideal base for exploring the island, really close to the ferry port and easy walk to Yarmouth. Fantastic to sit on the patio or in the lounge with the doors open just watching the boats go by and the sunset.
Simple booking process. Staff very helpful when dealing with our queries. Useful reminder just before holiday date. Accommodation lived up to our expectations.
The location of the apartment was superb. That is why we return every year. Easy access to all you want on the island.
Lovely little apartment in a great location.
Excellent location and an ideal base to explore the island.
The location, and how quickly we got from the ferry to the property, and we LOVED the Isle of Wight . Never been before but we shall certainly go back. Best accommodation we've had for a long time!!!!!
Superb location and very peaceful!
Excellent views across the Solent, just open the patio doors and you're on the beach. You really can't get any better!
Great walks around the Fort Victoria Country Park and along the coastal path routes. Just a short walk into Yarmouth and a coffee and cake from Grace's Bakery on the harbour side when you get there. An all round superb holiday.....
It was fantastic to have accommodation so close to the sea. It was also very close to Yarmouth, so easy to walk in, catch the bus, pick up supplies, go for a drink without taking the car.
In a perfect location, on the beach and next to a really friendly cafe that was open during the day. The apartment was thoughtfully furnished including a full length mirror, a shelf in the bathroom and shaver socket. The floor is laminated and easy to keep clean. It was just right for two people. We loved the rural location and were happy to walk to nearby Yarmouth where we loved the bird life and lovely walks. It was also fascinating to sit in the apartment and watch the ships, yachts and boats go by.
