About the host
Hosted by Jeff Van Hoven

We LOVE Cowes, we love places with lots to do, so purchased “our island home” to spend more future time there. We added our personal touch to this home so you can feel our family atmosphere and enjoy the beautiful island and many activities, as we have.
Why they chose this property
Great location -close to main st, beach, shops, restaurants, golf and many things to do. We saw the potential to refurbish inside and rework the outside, bringing our coastal feel here. Big block has ample room.
What makes this property unique
WALK to most things, to Main st, beach, restaurants, supermarkets, food, bottle shop, Pub, mini golf, etc... The island has many activities and places for your holiday.
