Perfect family holiday location
What a lovely, spacious house, perfect for our family of 6. Very clean, well laid out and heaps of little extras that made our stay extra special. Secluded, a short walk to the beach with lots of wildlife to look out for on the relaxed outdoor area. Debbie was great to deal with, prompt communication and simple onsite access. Thanks, we will be back :)

Great location and the house presented as clean and tidy. However, the driveway was an extremely tight fit for our 7-seater family car and we didn't enjoy all of the millipedes crawling around the house.

Hideaway By the Sea
The name of the property says it all. A fantastic property close to the beach and in a 'secluded' part of the street. A drive's distance to Cowes, but close to bus stops and the MotoGP shuttle Bus stop. Fantastic property with great and thoughtful facilities.

Thanks Debbie, was a lovely house with everything we needed. As a birdo, was great hearing so many different birds in the morning. Definitely plenty of space for a larger group if anyone needed it. Thanks heaps 😊😊

A relaxing oasis
We had such a lovely stay at this property. The house was spacious, clean and well laid out. It had all the practical/functional things we needed as a family - like a bath, washing machine, dishwasher, heating/cooling etc. And it was lovely being amongst the t-tree and birds, especially on the big balcony. The location was terrific - only steps from a beautiful beach. Thanks so much for having us!

Awesome Place - So So So So close to the Beach
The photos online of the property, does not reflect really how awesome this place really is!!!! Debbie was an awesome host and made life sooooooo easy for me and my family. The house is literally walking distance to beach which made multi trips from the beach to the house easy and really convenient, My kids loved the house and of course the access to the beach. We will 100% be back for sure!

Perfect for families
I love a holiday rental where if I feel like cooking I can! Debbie’s kitchen was well stocked for our big family who enjoy big brekky’ s and lunches. The house is 2 minute walk to the beach and town is up the road which is great for dinners out! House was spotless, kids loved the spa bath and I loved the electric blankets.
