We had a fantastic stay at this spacious and spotless holiday home, just a short drive from the Penguin Parade. The house was very clean and well-equipped, with a full kitchen that made cooking easy and convenient. The heater kept the home warm and comfortable throughout our stay. Another big plus was the location — it's close to grocery stores and other local shops, which made it easy to grab essentials. A great choice for families or groups wanting a comfortable and convenient base to explore Phillip Island. Highly recommended!

Cowes is a beautiful cultural town on the island.

Cowes is a beautiful cultural town on the island. We had dinner at a different restaurant each night! Italian, Greek, Thai, Japanese and Gelato for dessert - we couldn't fit any others in but there's many more. All the food was amazing. The Island itself provides such a vast amount of activities to do from Peguins, beaches, lookouts, kids entertainment, parks, wineries it has it all!

Great central spot for our visit to Philip Island attractions - Penguin Parade, Nobbies, Vietnam Vets Museum ... all great places to spend some time. As well as visiting some lovely places to eat! Didn't make it to the Markets ... maybe next time!

The penguins were an essential visit and didn’t disappoint.

The penguins were an essential visit and didn’t disappoint. Lots of wildlife to see. Local venues had live music and the food was wonderful. Only draw back is Cowes seems to shut down after 10pm, so need your own entertainment after that, we just listened to the ocean and relaxed.

Cowes is a lovely shore side town on Phillip Island.

Cowes is a lovely shore side town on Phillip Island. It is at the far end of the island from the bridge to cross over to the island. The town is well equipped with all softs of shops, and is a good spot to use as a base to travel around the island and experience all the sights that are available.

Cowes is a cool climate beach and water.

Cowes is a cool climate beach and water. If you cannot afford cost or time to get warmer water, enjoy what is affordable at Cowes. If you want extras, try half-hour drive to San Remo pub, or one hour to Wonthaggi.

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.
