Great property and beautiful home. Perfect location to explore Cowes. Very well equipped, clean and comfy. We all had a great night's sleep. Thank you so much for a great stay.
Amazing house, has everything you need. Clean, big and a nice place to chill on Phillip Island. Host was amazing and answered all my questions. Would recommend anyone staying in Phillip Island to book this place.
This is the best place we stayed so far in Victoria. Clean and quiet with all modern amenities and plenty of room for large family. Happy to return in the future.
What a beautiful property, very clean and tidy. Will definitely want to rebook next visit to the area. We only had an overnight stay to see the penguins but would be comfortable staying longer next time. Thank you for sharing your property with us.
Stayed at this property for a week during the Australian GP. The property was very well stocked with anything we needed during our stay. It was well equipped with everything we needed for the week and within walking distance to all the shops and restaurants in Cowes.
Would definitely stay again!
Our stay was simply perfect..
The space was clean, modern, clean and an absolute pleasure to stay in. The owner has thought of everything even down to the nice smelly towels.
Very comfortable and would definitely stay there again
This place is perfect in every way . Cleanliness is exceptional. Located in a quiet side street -in good location.
Everything provided in this house is great quality, House is better in real life than what the photos show. Quality fittings, right down to great pillows and additional bedding to suit all seasons. Small heaters to add warmth if required. Board games, puzzles, beach towels & even babies toys & baby gate at top of stairs for safety. Plenty of crockery, cutlery, glassware in a well appointed kitchen with plenty of cooking utensils if you wish to cook at home. Bath towels are soft & fluffy , well appointed laundry if you want to wash & dry clothes…. And soft decent toilet paper was an added bonus according to grandkids. You really need to just take your clothes to have a great get away - would highly recommend and definitely we will return . Easy communication with Loretta.
This property is fabulous. Very family friendly, great layout, easy to find. Our stay here made our weekend trip so effortless. Would highly recommend this property and would happy stay here again. Thanks for a great experience!

Very comfortable, spacious and warm home for winter weekend away. We were very impressed on how sparkling clean the house was on arrival and the house was just as per the photos. The house is beautiful, tastefully decorated and located in a new estate, close to everything and has a very well appointed kitchen, perfect if your planning to prepare meals at home. The host was amazing to deal with. We would love to come back in the future.
