We have been visiting the island every year for Australia Day week for decades. Carrinya House is one of the best places we have stayed at in Cowes. Quiet neighborhood, peaceful backyard retreat & a modern, clean home. Will definitely be returning if owners will have us again!

Winter getaway
We’re support workers taking our clients away to increase their daily living skills and independence both socially and within the community. We all had a great time, the house was perfect for us, our participants enjoyed their stay. This house is great for friends or families, the two living areas came in handy, lovely outdoors areas with a fire pit where we enjoyed toasting marshmallows. Would love to go back, maybe this summer !
