  We had a wonderful time staying at the beachfront retreat in Cowes.The house was spacious, immacuately clean and incredibly well equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. the location was ideal with the baech at our doorstep and just a short walk to the town centre yet far enough away to enjoy peace and quiet. highly recommend this amazing retreat to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway in Cowes.

  The location, the view & the property was more perfect than we imagined. The house was sparkling clean & had everything we needed making our stay perfect. Walking out the back gate & stepping onto the beach is breathtaking. The property managers were extremely attentive & accommodating. We created some lifelong memories during our stay & will most definitely be returning.

  This was the perfect house in the perfect location! Everything about this house was fantastic for our family getaway. Really great space for seven adults with a beautifully appointed kitchen with everything we could have needed. Relaxing on the balcony having afternoon drinks in the sun was like being in a resort. What a wonderful place for a wonderful weekend, only wished it was for longer!

  Sorry I did reply but had difficulty with the page. Were most satisfied with our stay. The general condition of the house was excellent and I could see that the owner had put a lot of thought into the interiors, decor and appliances. The location was excellent, it suited all our purposes, close to a safe beach, close to the surf, and to the shops and restaurants. We were very impressed with the property management, we had originally booked into a nearby house which at the last moment was taken off the rental market, and they found us this house which had an even better location with the same accommodation.

  This was the perfect getaway for our family.
  
  Everything you need was at the house and accessing the beach is a hop away and accessing the Main Street was a few minutes walk.
  
  There’s really no reason to leave the house, it’s perfect location and perfect view makes you just sit on the verandah all day and all night.
  
  Thank you and can not wait to go back again!

  We had a fantastic time with my family ! The house is just perfect to switch off from your daily routine. The view from the balcony is just spectacular and the beach which by the way it’s just “part of your backyard” basically, it was beautiful.
  The house had everything we were looking for , clean , wifi, comfortable and convenient for everything ( just a couple of blocks away from all the shops )
  We‘ll definitely come back even though it’s not a cheap rental but it’s worth it!
