Family-friendly holiday rentals in East Cowes

Back again for our second visit we just loved it that much! Perfect location for the beach, only a 5 minute walk. The house is bright and airy, clean and homely. Fantastic stay yet again - we’ll be back again next year no doubt! Thanks

We enjoyed our stay at Andy & Rosie's thanks to the great location and beautiful surroundings. We used it as a base for Goodwood, which was a short drive away. The local golf club being so close was also a bonus. The accommodation itself was well furnished and spacious and check in was made simple with the clear instructions and Andy's welcoming greeting on arrival.

Quirky chatectful home from home large place to stay with some great facilities. Like hot tub, quality air fryer and coffee maker. Comfy beds. Plenty of space for our multi generational family get away. Lovely welcome pack of treats. Description accurate re facilities..

We had a lovely stay at Greenbank. The house was spacious, tidy and clean, and we appreciated the extras provided by the host (towels, toiletries, tea and coffee). The property is just a short walk away from a playground , shop, pharmacy and local places to explore, which we enjoyed investigating. Our 4-year-old loved reading the children's books from around the house and the garden was a lovely spot to play in. We paid to have the hot tub, which we found easy to use and great fun. Thank you to Amy for a lovely stay.

Beautiful, secluded weekend getaway! Saw lots of wildlife within the fields and the accommodation was lovely. Outside bath was extra special.

We had a lovely stay at Kate’s accommodation, very spacious for 6 adults and enjoyed the hot tub. Winchester was only a short drive away so was a great base in a quiet area near the city centre. Clean and lovely to have some food supplies on our arrival - thanks Kate!

So nice to unwind, listen to the birds and decompress. Exactly what was needed with our hectic lives and schedules. Loved the quiet location and that our dogs could walk around the golf course and woods. Only recommendation we would make is a little freshen up and updating in some areas, like sealant around the bath (which was great by the way after a long day!) Having milk when we arrived was well appreciated, if there was a complimentary starter pack of some small jams/butter and scones - I'd give you 5* here! But a great stay nonetheless. Really comfortable.

Lovely peaceful weekend away. The place was very clean and beds and pillows extremely comfortable. Both lulu and russ were very welcoming and helpful. We used the hot tub on the Saturday and would recommend booking this. The location is great - very peaceful and a 5min drive from the beach and pubs in walking distance. We look forward to returning!

It's a small but great property with everything you need. There's no shower but the bath is lovely! There are fantastic restaurants within walking distance and nice walks along the beach. The local bus service is great and the connections from Ventnor to the rest of the island are easily accessed and reasonably frequent. This is definitely a great option if you are looking to stay anywhere on the south coast of the IoW.

Anthony was such a welcoming and generous host. The Cartbarn is a delightful - very well designed, immaculate and in the most beautiful and tranquil setting. Having a delicious, cooked-to-order breakfast delivered to the door each morning by Anthony was the icing on the cake!

An absolutely gorgeous place to stay. The location was wonderful, you felt like you were in the middle of nowhere, despite there being a pub next door! Lots of walks or cycles from the door, yet 2 minutes from a main road. The house was beautifully decorated and great bedrooms, lovely linen and comfy beds, with fantastic bathrooms. Everything you needed to cook for yourself and great recommendations of things to do and places to go. We had ponies outside our garden! Paul was a great host, responsive and helpful, really welcoming and very kind regarding checking in and out. We were there to celebrate a few things and felt it was absolutely the place for that. The pub next door under new owners was very friendly but did not disturb us at all. Thank you Paul, we had a great stay and would highly recommend it.

Katie very kindly let us stay in the daytime and her place was perfect to rest and have some peace and quiet while our home had some noisy building work going on. The Air B and B was exactly as described in profile, it is just over the road from the sea and there is a lovely cafe, Billys a stones throw away.

Absolute Perfection. We have been fortunate to stay at some great Airbnb’s over the past 10 years but this has to be the best! Maria was a fantastic host. She was always friendly and quick to reply to queries, she gave a us loads of helpful information as well as tips of places to visit and go for food. She greeted us at the cottage and gave us the warmest welcome and even baked us a cake! There were other welcoming gifts too including an activity pack and chocolate buttons for our daughter, a bottle of wine, milk, sourdough & local jam. All were lovely. The cottage itself is beautiful, full of character and charm, it felt cosy whilst spacious enough at the same time. It was spotlessly clean and contained everything we could need for our stay. Beds were large and very comfortable. The outdoor space is incredible! There is off road parking for atleast 2 cars, a large fully enclosed front garden, decking with lovely seating area over looking the rear wonderful rear garden.

Thank you Jenny and Pete, we had a wonderful stay. Your accommodation was spotless! You gave us lots of advice. We hope to return! Best wishes from the Ivanov's

The Boathouse never disappoints! We had a lovely weekend here - great to be back. Sad to see the Hot Tub go but the views and the setting reminds us why it's one of our favourite places. Highly recommend!

A wonderful little cottage in a great location. My husband and I took two friends away as a retirement gift and the layout couldn’t have been better. Having the two bedrooms with en-suites either end of the property worked brilliantly as it gave us ample of space and privacy. Mike our host was there to great us and was extremely friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend this to our friends, family and anyone who wants to explore the beautiful Isle of Wight.

Great location for a family break. Entertainment passes included. Kids will love the robots delivering food in the restaurant. Didnt try out the pool this time but looked great. Loved how close we were to the beach beautiful day and night, with stunning sunsets. Also enjoyed a walk around the nature reserve. Great base for getting out on our bikes. We absolutely love the new forest and this was a great base for a short stay. We'd happily stay for longer.

We had such a lovely stay at Linda’s place! Even before the trip, communication was super quick, friendly, and accommodating. Linda went out of her way to answer all our questions and offer tips for the area—and kindly offered us an early check-in, which was really appreciated. The welcome goodies (and the cute stickers for the boys!) were such a thoughtful touch. The bungalow itself was perfect for our trip—comfortable, clean, and had everything we needed. We even met Linda’s partner Keith on the way out, who was just as lovely—really friendly and chatty. Thank you, Linda, for a wonderful stay. Would absolutely recommend!

If you are looking for a home from home or an upgrade from home, this is the place to stay. Arrived from Melbourne and immediately settled into the joy of living in the countryside. Although too cold to enjoy the pool, we did use the tennis court and shot some hoops. We walked to Old Thorns Golf and Country Club and can recommend Katie's Coffee bar. It's an easy walk amongst stunning scenery. We walked back via the Foley Estate from the Deers Hut pub. Liphook is so lucky to have not one but two stunningly beautiful golf courses. If their is a heaven on earth, we must have stayed in its guest house!

Highly recommended! Superb host. Thank you.

Fantastic location for walking & exploring. The barn is beautifully presented and stylishly furnished. Very spacious. Loved seeing the Llamas on our morning walk with our dog - on our doorstep. The New Inn pub down the road - Victoria’s tip - awesome, friendly, great food at a sensible price - try the venison or brill filets! Our only regret was that we didn’t stay for longer. Thank you team Shalfleet Farm.

very friendly, replied v quickly to a couple of pre booking queries, hot tub brilliant...

We had a perfect stay at Tara’s place — it was relaxing, comfortable, and we were surrounded by beautiful countryside. We especially loved sitting out on the deck in the sunshine, taking in the views, and listening to the peaceful sounds around us. Tara was a fantastic host — so friendly and welcoming, and she instantly made us feel at home. It was also such a treat to meet her beautiful dog, Sula! We really enjoyed spending time in the hot tub and at the tennis court, and it was even warm enough to have a little swim in the pool. The walk through the fields to the local pub was stunning and made our stay even more special. Thank you for the idillic stay!

Highly recommended! Clare is a fantastic host who made us feel very welcome. She went above and beyond in accommodating for us and offered local recommendations. The space is in a perfect location, approx 4min walk to beach, which made it fantastic for early morning strolls. The space was as described (though it DOES have hot water) and spacious for two people. You can easily be self-sufficient with the amenities e.g in the kitchen. Thank you for letting us stay and we will return in the future :-)
