Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
Compared to other properties we have hired in Cowes this property was very unclean, carpet dirty, dust on tables and benches, air conditioner/heater filter very dirty which didn’t help with asthmatics in family and bedding unclean. Rooms were large, plenty of kitchen appliances and lots of games etc just needed windows clean and general cleaning and tidy up. Wouldn’t stay there again

Lovely!

Pro: Love the house. Huge areas. Great appliances, books, games. Plenty of storage areas. Enjoyed the stay. Con: Windows in bedroom can rattle in high winds so some getting used to, some dust and stains on furnitures. Overall: Great house and value
