Lovely stay in a lovely house

We really enjoyed our stay. Between the two families we have 5 kids aged from 12 to 17 and the house was perfect for all of us. The dining table was a great size, we ate and played games there. We also utilised the great outdoor space & the kitchen where we cooked a couple of nights and the other nights we ate out. The house had everything we needed, kitchen supplies, bedding, towels, etc. We walked to the beach but it was a fair walk. A short drive to the town centre which was handy. All in all we had a great stay and the hosts were great.

Phillip Island Getaway

We loved our stay at Troy’s home. It had everything we needed and was in a great location. There is a park around the corner and is about a 5-7 minute drive to the Main Street of Cowes & beach. The cooling was great and plenty of room for the 8 of us.

Perfect place for our holiday!!!

We stayed at this place as 2 x families (11xadults) and there was ample room. Amenities were more than sufficient and the aircon system kept all the rooms cool - especially on the hot days!! Very clean and modern design, close to gym, bowling and shops in Cowes. We would highly recommend Troy’s place to anyone looking to stay in Cowes and would definitely book our next Phillip Island stay there. Thank you Troy for letting us stay and for the great communication throughout our holiday.
