Christmas stay

We loved the easy and close proximity to the beach. It was just a short walk to the back of the property! The boys enjoyed riding their bikes along the walking track along the beach. The shops were a short walk so we rarely had to drive. Great beach views from the balcony.

Excellent home.

We used this house for our wedding preparation with my groomsmen and then with my wife afterwards. The house was very clean and easy to access, it had everything you could need and was close enough to main street of cowes to walk. The beach was extremely close just as shown in the photos. Everything was excellent and would recommend to anyone. Thank you for letting us stay before and after our wedding and it will always be apart of our memories and wonderful day.
