Cowes B&B Recommendation

Hi, can anyone recommend a B&B on the IOW for my folks, doesn't have to be Cowes but I think my parents would like it there.

Also does anyone run any rib rides from there, would have to be quite tame though

Take your pick and can arrange a ride as well.
Should have looked on the trade pages of the site.
