    Cowes is a live town not just a tourist town with everything you need easily accessible. Lovely locals, lots of options, interesting and nature all around. Easy, short drive to Penguin parade and multiple beaches. Very clean, safe and picturesque, a great location from which to discover the island's many attractions.

    Stayed at North Pier Hotel .

    Stayed at North Pier Hotel . We booked family room which comes with an outdoor patio. Great location. Within walking distance to family friendly beach and restaurants. We had the best lamb curry in Chocolate Factory cafe. Not spicy, lamb was tender, suitable for kids. Love the fish and chips!! We purchased bundle pass which comes with Penguin Parade, Churchil Island (picnic area, picturesque view, Highlander cow), Koala Conservation (spotted lots of koala on the trees while walking on boardwalk). Highly recommended these places of interest.

    I am sending these 2 photos as on the screen shot you see I paid for a studio with patio and balcony and all I got was this pod for $500 per night. They lied about what my accommodation was to you. Probably because they had a big group staying as well they decided to shove me down in a "trades pod". Unacceptable! They need to give me a refund and booking.com can't trust them in the future! Thanks Kerry

    Location for brunch and lunch great, disappointed in evening meals. Good base if you have car to explore island. The Thai restaurant is an experience and great value and food. The two upmarket restaurants were disappointing, expensive and food unfortunately was underwhelming.

    The house was perfect for our needs. Plenty of beds and a great entertainment area, complete with table tennis & darts & bbq. Close enough to walk into Cowes. Lots of outdoor seating for relaxing and the kitchen is well stocked with appliances & kitchen tools. We used it for “The Grooms” house for a wedding & a small Brunch the day after the wedding. Perfect for us.

    The accommodation was better than expected. It was so peaceful and calming. It was a quick drive from the main strip in Cowes and a longer walk, which we didn't attempt. Beautiful accommodation. Very spacious. Beautiful views. Hotel quality bed. Spa bath. Would definitely rebook if returning to Philip Island.

    By far the best house I’ve stayed at in Phillip Island. We needed a place that was close to the track for the GP weekend and it ticked all the boxes. Would highly recommend it for family or bunch of friends who are after a house with proper amenities as well as a spacious bedding and dinning area.

    The inn was easy to find and a good base for exploring Philip Island. The room was as described and had everything we needed. It’s a little bit of a walk to the shops and restaurants in Cowes but it’s along the seafront most of the way which was lovely. We loved Philip island!

    Great location in Cowes and close proximity to most tourist attractions. The beach, shops, and even other main tourist attractions such as the Penguins, Amaze n' Things, Churchill Island, were about 5-15 minute drives at most.
