relaxing
place was great and clean. The family had lots of fun, but the only downside was the pool table was warped from being outside and we could not play on it and the soccer table was also not good to play on. gaming equipment could do with an upgrade.

Great place and great location
Had a great stay, spacious house and great to have the deck area with pool table, table tennis, darts etc. we had 2 families of 4 stay and was good as worked well having space for 1 family upstairs and other downstairs with separate spaces to retreat and own bathrooms. Great to be able to walk to Main Street in Cowes and beach. Very clean. Only issue was pool table needs to be replaced/ fixed with some pockets taped up and ball would just constantly fall onto the floor when pocketed, balls roll into middle of table, not stay where they should. Also a little frustrating when pay a lot and at least half the walk in robes in bedrooms were locked so unable to use. Very bright in upstairs bedrooms, blockout blinds would be good. One double bed upstairs was very hard, but most okay. Overall would recommend and would stay again.

Great location and a good house
We were a group of 14 people ages range from 5 to 50s. Inside the house, the rooms are small and the beds are crowded but we don’t mind it. It is a bit crowded if everyone is in the house altogether at once but the entertainment area outside has lots of space and games to play. The place is clean and got all the things you need. The oven didn’t work when we tried to heat up our food from home but no big deal, we used microwave but we didn’t get the crunchiness of our food that’s all. It’s closed to supermarket and many other shops.

Gréât location. Easy access to shops, restaurants and beaches. Just off Main Street so quiet and restful. Beaches close by. House is fairly large, would suit two families easily. Clean and well set out with a games deck that kept the kids and young at heart occupied.

Fabulous Location
A pleasant, well appointed house. Great for the kids to have a pool table, table tennis table, etc outside in the covered deck - the outside TV was an added summer bonus. A fabulous location - max 3 min walk to the beach when you use the side streets. 3 min walk to town. We would stay again.
