The Seaside Haven in Cowes

  • About the home

    “The Seaside Haven” is a delightful double-storey family home in Cowes just metres from the Cowes Beach and Anderson Boat Ramp, and short drive to the supermarkets, restaurants & cafés of Cowes. Some of the many features of this lovely home are detailed below:

    Downstairs, the central hallway provides access to Bedrooms 2, 3 & 4 (each with BIR, Bedroom 2 & 3 with smart TV's - no FTA channels), a Bathroom (with shower over a bath & toilet) and a fully equipped European Laundry (with washing machine and clothes dryer).

    The large semi-covered first floor Deck (with a gas Weber BBQ, Lounge area for 6 people & table/chairs for 6 people) also has 2 x awnings that can be extended to provide more cover. It wraps around the front and side of the home, overlooking the fully enclosed rear yard, which is perfect for children and small pets. The Garage is not available to guests, but there is space to park 1 vehicle (car &/or a boat - 10m x 2.3m) in the driveway, with additional parking available on the street.

    Please note there are security cameras outside the home. They do not view any private areas in the home and are currently not functioning.

    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.

    Please note that the home is not suitable for celebrations, parties, or large events. The home also does not take bookings over Schoolies, irrespective of whether school-leavers are part of the official Schoolies Program.

Beautiful cozy house ideal for 6 to 8 people. The house overall was very clean and tidy except for the bedroom upstairs, the bed was a bit smelly. Very close to the back beach and a a few coupe of minutes drive to the town centre. We enjoyed every moment in the house and would highly recommend it.
