The house is great - so close to the beach. Included all the things that make a stay enjoyable. Especially loved the enclosed courtyard, comfy couches and stacks of games and DVDs.
We were only there briefly for a short stop in whilst working on the Island overnight however the beds were comfy, everything in walking distance and would definitely come back for a longer stay!
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!
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.
Loved our stay at this property. Property manager was efficient and accommodating. Excellent location with 2mins walk to the beach and 1ins walk to main Cowes business district. The place has everything we needed for our stay. Highly recommend it.
We had a lovely stay, the house is walking distance to the town and beach. Very clean and spacious. I would highly recommend. Thanks Doug! ☺️

Liked: Location, listing accuracy
Disliked: Cleanliness, communication
Poor & Below Average amenities & communication
Toiletries wasn’t even refilled, we need to buy our own toilet paper and shower gel. Looks like they don’t even care about refilling. Poor communication with host as massage owner on day of booking which is 2 months ago and never reply. Followed with him and no response, even day before there were no messages from owner for check in, I have to followed up on that. If you consider to book this property please carry own toiletries and toilet papers. I won’t recommend to My friends or won’t book again here.
