The side and rear private yard is enclosed and provides a perfect grassy spot for children and pets alike (small dogs only please). There is a table with chairs for 8 people and gas BBQ. The double Garage contains the clothes dryer, a double sofa bed, an outdoor table with 4 swivel chairs, a bar fridge, plus a fold up table tennis table and has internal access into the home and rear yard. Also in the garage is some beach equipment that guests are welcome to use, including 8 outdoor foldup chairs, a shade canopy, and a beach trolley. There is space for 2 cars in the garage with a Tesla charger (if the table tennis table is folded up) and another car (and/or a boat) in the driveway.

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.

Great property!

This is our second stay here and it's a great property in a top spot for beach access near the boat ramp. The house has nearly everything you could need for your stay and we were very impressed with the accommodations for pets. Thanks again!

Highly recommend - A relaxing stay

This property was so well equipped with everything we needed. It felt like home , with added extras both in the kitchen , lounge and bathrooms that other accommodation does not provide. Such a short walk to the beach and the centre of town. Would recommend to others . Quiet location and all the comforts of home with the added bonus of being able to take our dog . Thankyou for such wonderful service . Enjoyed by all the family .

What you want and more!

Within 10 minutes of our arrival, our 7-yr-old son said “Awesome - this feels like home”. And I couldn’t have put it better myself… A super location being nice and quiet, a short walk to the beach and boat ramp, and very short drive to the Main Street of Cowes. Games galore, coffee machine, pantry staples - and the deck chairs and beach trolley were a godsend. Our pug dog loved the outdoors (and garage). We had epic table tennis tournaments. Comfy beds and welcomed aircon during a very hot week. We utilised the bbq quite a lot for evening meals. Perfect for our family of 3 and dog, but room for more if needed. Thanks so much. We had a wonderful experience.
