The cottage was very quaint and cosy. Staff left you alone to enjoy your holiday which was nice. Check in and check out was a tad confusing and needed attention. Gas fire place instead of actual fire place which is deceptive but safer option I guess for the hotel given the lack of human interaction. All round a pleasant stay.

Lovely property close to restaurants and shops in Cowes. Very clean and quiet but close to the beach and facilities. Simple and straightforward check in and contact with the manager was there if needed.

게스트 하우스 느낌이며, 각 방에 화장실(샤워실 포함)이 있음. 작지만 깔끔하고 주인이 직접 신경 쓴 집이라는 느낌을 받았음. 도착했을 때 리셉션을 만나진 못했지만, 손편지가 알림판에 있어서 집에 들어오는데는 전혀 문제가 없었음. 아침 식사가 제공되며, 요청에 따라 계란 요리나 베이컨등을 만들어 주심. 정성스러운 요리에 기분 좋은 하루를 시작할 수 있었음.

Nice Cozy Cottage with Parking

Its a nice cozy place for 4 of us on a friends trip to Phillip Island. We got back late from dinner, the staff has left but left us a note as to where the key was. It would have been nice to give us a call since I left a local number with my booking. Internet is almost non existence. Close to the main stretch of Cowes. If you stay there check out the Italian Pizza place! Has heater / aircon. Only qualm is that for 4 of us, they gave really miniature size molton brown toiletries which were barely enough.

Best place on Philip Isand

What a great place. We stayed in ‘Driftwood’. Deal with the minor criticism first: there wasn’t enough crockery or knives and forks etc in the kitchen area. However everything else was spot on. It was clean comfortable and in a great position
