Miss B Haven in Cowes

About the home

“Miss B Haven” is a single-level family home in Central Cowes just a short walk from the supermarkets, restaurants & cafés of Cowes. Some of the many features home are detailed below:

Indoor Areas

The master bedroom is at the front of the home and features a smart TV, walk through robe and ensuite with shower and toilet. The central hallway provides access to the other three bedrooms (bedrooms 3 and 4 have built in robes) plus the main bathroom (with bath, shower, toilet and TV) and the laundry. The large central open plan kitchen/dining/living room (with 75' TV) provides access out to a central deck that overlooks the rear yard. A short hall leads to the light filled 2nd living room/rumpus room with soft floor coverings (perfect for wet feet coming in from the pool and spa) a pool table, coonara wood heater (wood not provided), smart TV, cd player and bluetooth speakers, an arcade game and servery windows leading out to the covered outdoor kitchen. There is also another bathroom off the rumpus room with a shower and toilet.

Outdoor Areas

The rear yard is fully enclosed and is perfect for children and pets alike. The fully covered outdoor kitchen features a sink with hot/cold water, gas pizza oven, large table with 8 seats, 3 bar stools, an outdoor couch and some lounge beds. The key attraction is the rear yard with its covered pergola housing the electric heated 8-seater spa (2.3m x 2.3m) and heated (electric heat pump) kids wading pool (2.3m x 2.5m, 300mm deep), and swim-spa/pool (4.5m x 2.2m), each with a waterfall feature.

The garage is not available for guests (may be available if requested beforehand for special events) but there is plenty of parking for more than 6 vehicles in the double concrete driveway.

Kitchen

The fully appointed kitchen is equipped with cooking utensils, crockery, cutlery, microwave, Aldi pod coffee machine, toaster, kettle, etc. plus a double sink, large fridge (with cold water & ice dispenser), dishwasher, electric oven and cook top. There is an additional full size fridge in the Rumpus/Games Room.

Linen

It is common in the region for some linen to be provided for bookings, and some linen to be available as an optional extra. By default, a booking at this home does not include optional linen (top & bottom sheets, bath towels and pillowcases). What is included are doonas (quilts) with covers, pillows without covers, tea towels, hand towels and bathmats. If you would like the optional linen included in your booking, please let us know, including which beds you would like it provided for. The additional cost would be a one-off charge of $30 per bed (some sites add a service fee to these costs) - and we prefer 7 days' notice prior to your arrival to get that arranged.

Peak Periods

Please note that during the peak summer period and other peak times, check in times are set as 3pm unless by prior arrangement. Please also note that if you avail of the optional linen hire over these times, it may involve linen being left out but beds not being made up.

Nice place but could do with a bit of tlc
Overall the house was nice. We enjoyed the pool, spa, pool table, etc. However the gardens are well overdue for a tidy up and there are no fly screens on any windows or doors in the house. As we had pets staying with us we couldn't open up these to let any fresh air in the house unfortunately. The main bed was terribly uncomfortable also. Overall its a good place but just a few things to make it a great house.

Great for entertaining
We were very excited to stay at this house, It is perfect for entertaining a large group. A couple of things to possibly consider, the place wasn't very tidy, the beds/mattresses could do with updating and please take a look at the kitchen items as they were very worn and could do with replacing. Other than that, we had a lovely time, thank you.

Great Stay - Thank You!
Great location (a short walk to Cowes), home amenities (pool, hot tub, game console, pool table), and layout (living room, kitchen, games room, bedrooms). All was as advertised and responsiveness of host was great. Really appreciated outdoor cooking and seating area. Home probably needs a deep clean and TV in play room doesn’t work/hangs at a precarious angle.

Nice property but not clean
It was a well located place and close to everything. I wish it was clean and included an instruction manual for the pool and other equipment. However we had a nice time there. Thanks

Listing is not as advertised etc
The listing for the house did not fully represent the actual house. When I booked our stay I emailed right away to make sure the amenities the house had listed will be in use. The hot tub listed was not the one shown in the photos, and the pool was not in operation. The pizza oven (which I emailed twice about prior to our stay to make sure it'll be in operation) was not working. The property managers told us prior to the stay to email if something is not working and they will google instructions, which we could and did ourselves, however the oven was simply not working and no instructions could fix it. The house was not cleaned. It does not seem like the house is cleaned before tenants come in. I had to clean surfaces when we arrived to put our stuff down. The house also sleeps 8 people and is advertised as 12. There are two single mattresses thrown on the floor in the bunk rooms which count as extra two beds, and the other two are meant to sleep in the pull out couches in the rompus room. This should have been made clearer when the owner called asking me to "sell my friends and say why I should be allowed to book the home for 11 adults". Overall we made the best of the weekend, because what else can you do? However was quite disappointed that the amenities I specifically booked the house for, were not available to us.

Great place to stay
This property is a such a good place to stay plenty of entertainment for all age groups.close to shops and an easy walk down to the beach.my only real disappointment was the cleanliness and there was no equipment there to clean up before leaving ( mop, broom,ect). Bed linen could use some updating but otherwise is was a great place and somewhere we would definitely come back to.

A relatively pleasant stay
We enjoyed our stay while at the property. The games room was a big hit for our group and the men enjoyed their time at the billiards table. The kids had fun on the mini arcade. It was convenient to have 2 fridges, especially the one in the games room near the spa and the outdoor entertaining area. However, the amenities provided were not up to the expectation. For a 4 day stay, not enough toilet rolls were provided. Only 4 dishwashing tablets were provided and we had to buy more during our stay. No pepper in the pantry and oil was a half empty bottle. An open 250g or so bag of sugar with just about quarter of the bag remaining. One of the beds had loose slabs and the mattress kept sinking in. It was very difficult to sleep in that bed. But otherwise, the place was clean and big enough to accommodate us.
