Wonderful location and perfect property for our stay
Our stay was perfect; the property had everything we needed and was very spacious and clean. The location was close to town to walk in or drive. Would definitely stay here again and would recommend this property to anyone.
Property is a minute walk from the beach and a pleasant 10 min stroll to cowes town centre. Very well equipped with everything you need for a long stay.
We had a great stay at this property.
Checkin is easy, the property was clean & exactly as described.
Great access to the beach. Has great views from the balcony.
Would stay here again, hopefully for a little longer.
Great quiet location just a short walk to restaurants, wine bars and cafes. The views over foreshore trees and water are fantastic from the outdoor living areaExcellent kitchen with every amenity you could wish for
We loved the easy and close proximity to the beach. It was just a short walk to the back of the property! The boys enjoyed riding their bikes along the walking track along the beach. The shops were a short walk so we rarely had to drive. Great beach views from the balcony.
We used this house for our wedding preparation with my groomsmen and then with my wife afterwards.
The house was very clean and easy to access, it had everything you could need and was close enough to main street of cowes to walk.
The beach was extremely close just as shown in the photos.
Everything was excellent and would recommend to anyone.
Thank you for letting us stay before and after our wedding and it will always be apart of our memories and wonderful day.
