We had a lovely weekend stay at this house.
Nice, quiet street. Five minute drive to main strip. Host was easy to contact, responded quickly and was very accommodating.
The house had everything we needed and it was handy that there where some little things there like washing powder and a BBQ. Plenty of space for everyone and 2 bathrooms.

Hi Cameron,
Thank you so much for your review.
It was a pleasure having you and your family stay at our house. You are welcome back anytime.
Regards,
Russell
We booked the property for a family wedding. We loved the location and the house. It was clean and comfortable. Lots of space for a large family stay. We enjoyed it very much. Thank you!
The house was fabulous. It can accommodated a large group (or several families). Lots of seating, bedding and space for everyone. Easy check in and check out and great communication with the property manager.
We stayed for a school holiday getaway in Winter. House had plenty of room and able to accommodate our group. We had everything we needed to make our stay as easy as possible. The host was very easy to communicate with. Was a short drive into town.
Loved our stay here. Great big backyard and spaces for the children to play and adults to enjoy. It was clean and bright. Accurate listing and check in was efficient.
Only downside was the table tennis table was broken but we still managed to enjoy a play on it.
Thanks and would stay again if in the area!
We had a fabulous stay! The house is a big two story perfect for families like us with older teenagers, the bedrooms are big and the floor plan works well, a short walk into cowes made it perfect for our family summer holiday. Russell was a fantastic host easy communication and nothing was too much bother. Highly recommended property
We enjoyed our stay immensely, there was enough room for 6 kids and 5 adults to enjoy each others company, the beds were REALLY comfortable.
Kitchen was well equipped that looks over the back yard and the pergola out the back and the front was great to watch the kids back yard and also out the front.
Russell was so easy to contact and had quick responses, thank you for a great property to spend time in, if we are ever in Cowes again, we will stay there!
Great size yard, great size house to fit 12 adults and teenagers comfortably. Short drive to shops and beach. Lovely open plan living upstairs.
Needs a new table tennis table and bats. Plenty of fridge/freezer space and very well equipped kitchen. Excellent communication and support when we had an issue.
We had a great stay at this property. We were three families with children between the ages of 7 to 14. The property itself had more than enough space to accommodate us all. There were a few children that slept on the fold out sofa beds. The backyard is very big and and was good to sit out and enjoy the sunshine, as was the balcony off the dinning room. Communication with the owner was easy and responded in a timely manner. You can walk into town if needed, about 30mins, but far enough away as to not be caught in the traffic and (sometimes) searching for a car park. Cleaning could be a touch better, however, all in all a great stay and would recommend this place.
