Great house and location

Beautiful property in a great location only a few minutes walk to the main street in Cowes and to the beach. The house was fully kitted out with more then enough items needed for week or more stay. Kids loved playing on the Wii and a great garden at the rear for the dog to use.. The house was very clean and tidy with great and quick communication from the owner. Would definitely recommend and would book again.

Great property in Cowes

The property was great, we’ll kit out with everything you need. We throughly enjoyed the garden, outdoor undercover seating area and had a lovely fire. The kitchen has everything you need to cook. The property is right near cowes and short drive to the penguins. Henri was happy to share his knowledge of the attractions and things to do. We had a great stay!
