Excellent location a short walk form beaches, shops, cafe's and markets if you are there on the week

Great stay in this modern house. I loved being able to walk everywhere and we only needed the car to get to the further afield attactions. Cowes is such an attractive base and I loved being able to browse through the boutiques and shops, grab an icrecream and sit on the beach and relax.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our rental experience was outstanding....start to finish. Once we had booked the house, the communication from our hosts was straight forward. They answered any questions we had promptly. The moment we walked in the house we were impressed. A welcome basket with treats was a great touch, but the fact they had put milk and water in the fridge, that was service over and above. The whole experience was how we want on a relaxing, extended long weekend. We will be back.
