I had a wonderful stay with Lucy (did) Communication with the host Kasia exceeded 5 stars.

The property was just delightful, everything provided for a cosy, comfortable stay during Vic winter, including a bed and pet bowls for my Kelpie. She loved the “trampoline” bed. The property was exceptionally clean and presented as a charming beach cottage. The yard is fully fenced and 100% secure for my dog. Also all the yard is grassed both front and back giving her lots of sniffing experiences. Just a few minutes walk to everything that gorgeous Cowes has to offer , . including Cowes jetty and beach there. The communication from host Kasia was outstanding, Thankyou Kasia such a pleasure to have that happen when booking accomodation . I thoroughly recommend all aspects of what I experienced during my stay at Nautical Beach House , Cowes. AND I WILL BE BACK !!!! Providing there is availability .

Quiet, except for the rabbits

Nice, comfortable house to stay. Clean inside, just lawns quite long, and rabbits were a bit thumpy under the floor at night :-) Beach was nice and close as were supermarkets. We all really enjoyed our stay, thank-you.

Dated property

The property would be nice for families with small children as it had a play area in the backyard, but we were 5 adults with one bathroom. The host kindly left us chocolate and the beds were comfortable.

Perfect house for a family

We recently stayed at the Nautical Mile Beach House and we couldn't have been happier! It was perfect for four adults and two kids. The house was very clean and equipped with everything we needed. There were even toys for the kids and a great big backyard with cubby, swing set and sandpit. The owner made our booking effortless. Thanks Kasia, we highly recommend your property.

Perfect Family Getaway

We spent 3 nights here and loved every minute - will definitely be booking again! Not only was it clean & modern, the Nautical Mile Beach House had everything a young family could need in a great central location. My 2 year old cried when we had to check out as he didn't want to leave, and I felt the same! Thanks Kasia for your beautiful house and we look forward to a return visit in thr near future.

Great Family Friendly House

We had a wonderful stay at Nautical Mile Beach House and thanks so much to Kasia for such efficient service. The house was super clean and had all the things we needed. The backyard was well equipped for the children with a cubby house, swings and sand pit. We would stay here again without a doubt. Thanks so much Kasia.

Charming, Well Equipped Holiday House

We enjoyed a perfect holiday here. The house is situated in a peaceful quiet street just a short walk to a lovely beach. It takes about 12 to 15 minutes to walk into town. The interior is sparklingly modern and extremely well equipped for a family or a group. Beds were comfortably firm. The second TV was much appreciated. Children would love the large flat garden with play house and swings plus a large well equipped bedroom/play area.We were pleased to be able to lock up our bicycles in the large garage where we also played table tennis. We enjoyed the spectacular 8 km Cape Woolamai walk. We loved walking along the town beaches and cycled to Newhaven along the bike path for excellent coffee.
