A very clean, comfortable, well stocked house in a fantastic location. We loved the large living space with comfy couches, excellent heating for the cold weather, lots of books, DVDs and games, and excellent kitchen supplies. The inclusion of linen in the price was a huge factor in us choosing this property. We loved it and look forward to staying again.

Very old bathroom; needs renovating. Bed linen needs replacing; sheets thin and a very thin doona. Towels need replacing. Dishes in cupboard still had food on them; had to rewash them. Toiletries in shower looked like they had been left behind by previous guest. The place needs a thorough clean; very dusty.

The perfect Cowes location, not in the busy heart but walking distance to shops, town, restaurants and so close the beach. Tidy house with everything you need for a family stay. Loved the greenery and cool of the private yard. Comfy and cosy. Would happily return

Great house and location

The property had everything we needed for our short stay (2 single mums - one with a 5yo and the other with 12 & 15yo). Easy access to the beach and shops, great that there was beach equipment and bikes we could use. Plenty of space for us to spread out.

Great location - Wonderful property!

What a beautiful home, a very short stroll to the beach where we often saw a wallaby just by the track. Well appointed with everything we needed to cook, relax with a great range of books, or play any number of family friendly games. Very easy to maintain and check in was easy. We loved the outdoor shower and perfect entertaining courtyard. Hope it’s available next time we visit!
