Cottage vacation rentals in Cowes

Martin’s cottages are beautiful converted stables on a lovely farm. Everything is very high quality and we had a great weekend.

What a wonderful and truly beautiful home. Was a pleasure to stay in this serene countryside hotspot with a tree house, playground, incredible private lake and surrounding natural beauty. Very special. Can’t recommend enough!

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.

We had a lovely stay at Stag cottage and fully enjoyed the huge garden during our stay. Communications with Cindy were excellent and she was really quick to respond and keen to ensure our stay was the best it could be. It was most definitely a lucky find and we would stay there again in a heartbeat. 😊🦌❤️

This was our second stay at The Old Piggery, and again we absolutely loved it. It’s such a beautiful location. Grant is really helpful.

We had an amazing stay at Ashley’s cottage. The kitchen/living area is absolutely beautiful and suited us as a group of friends when doing breakfast/lunch etc. Our favourite bit of the property has to be the outside area. Having an outdoor shower/toilet, hot tub, kitchen area and bbq just topped off our weekend and we spent most of our time outdoors. A few outdoor games were left in the garden and it gave a good few hours of entertainment for us too! Ashley was super inviting and was very clear with check in instructions etc. The house felt very safe & secure and we all got very good night sleep from comfortable beds. We would love to come back again next year and for years after this!! A really lovely place!

Wonderful little cottage, where get to see horses and donkeys everyday. We loved staying here and are already looking to book again in the autumn. Joyce & David are lovely and we’re happy to show us around the farm and tell us all about the animal, thank you so much.

This was our second time staying and we loved it as much as the first time. The place is so peaceful and cosy. Jane was very responsive and helpful. Looking forward to booking another stay in the future!

Enjoyed our short stay. The property is exactly as described on the listing. Easy to get to Yarmouth and Freshwater and indeed the rest of the IoW. Some property developments close by, but did not disturb us.

Our second visit as we love the cottage and its peaceful location. Fresh eggs to eat and on this occasion a deer in the garden makes this thatched cottage something special, and Pam and her husband take great care of the place. This year the internet was much improved, though it didn't bother us last time at all. Watching the ferry come in and out and listening to the geese etc., we really chilled out. Thank you ;-)

Honeysuckle Cottage is on the main road through East Meon but once inside it is quiet. All the furnishing and equipment are good quality and although the cottage is small, there is plenty of storage and it has everyone needed for a relaxing weekend. As others have said the second bedroom is very small but our son and his girlfriend slept comfortably and had enough space for their clothes. The garden is secure, so perfect for our dog. It’s also a sun trap so we were able to enjoy relaxing outside even though it wasn’t particularly hot weather. There are many excellent walks on the doorstep with stunning views. We were able to eat at The George on a couple of evenings and didn’t use our cars all weekend, which was just perfect. We did not park our cars on the main road but there’re plenty of places to park in the village, including the car park.

From the warm welcome and the homemade brownies to the clean and spacious interior, Bentley Cottage is the perfect place for a New Forest escape. We are already looking forward to our next time!!

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!

Beautiful location and the host added very thoughtful amenities like a choice of bubble baths to choose from, a massager machine, fans in every bedroom which was very much needed during this heatwave. The choice of teas and coffees were amazing too.

Wonderful accommodation! We could not have been happier with the home. It was charming right down to the details. Thoughtfulness planning went into it—right down to the step stool so my toddler could reach the bathroom sink, and the emergency torches that also served as nightlights. The host was great, especially with our last minute reservation! My nine year old said, “This feels like Christmas morning!” as she walked through the beautiful home. Now my only problem is that my kids want me to buy a nicer house, haha. If we are fortunate enough k travel this way again we will definitely book this place again!

India Cottage was a great base for our short stay in Ventnor. The property is characterful and the hosts have gone to great lengths to provide a wide range of equipment and amenities for a comfortable stay. The location close to the town plus parking spaces are a major asset. Communication was pro-active and we felt valued as customers.

Wonderful stay at this beautiful property. Spotlessly clean and comfortable, with everything you could need.

A lovely self-contained annexe attached to Deb and her husbands cottage, with private access and parking off road. Really clear instructions provided by Deb prior to arrival. Very friendly when we met and came out to greet us and say goodbye. Otherwise left to our own devices but was welcomed to just knock on her door if we needed anything. Very comfortable including the bed zzzz

Allie's place was a hit with the entire family. Our 2 year old tremendously enjoyed running in the garden and playing with the old tractor that stood there. Allie gave us great pub recommendations nearby her property. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen fully kitted out for cooking. You need to follow Allie's exact GPS instructions on how to drive to her property (which is not what we have done) because network connection gets suddenly very poor in the vicinity of the property, so you can't rely on your phone anymore at that point. There is a good wifi connection once you arrive at the property.

Great host and property. Dawn was friendly from the outset and flexible regarding our check in. Property is exactly how it looks and is described and excellent location, particularly if there for sailing. Couldn’t have been easier and better.

We had a wonderful stay at Lisa’s. The beds were incredibly comfy and the house was cosy and beautifully decorated with everything you need. Lisa was really accommodating too, thank you.

Fab location for a stay with my family! Perfect house and great recommendations will definitely be back!

My daughter and I just loved the cottage. The garden is immaculate and the cottage is comfortable and well stocked. We were particularly impressed with the attention to detail in the cottage from the furnishings to the night lights. Ian was a fantastic host. He was communicative and responsive throughout our stay. The cottage is also well situated, giving easy access to places of interest in the area.

We stayed in The Goat shed for 5 nights for a mini-moon and can't fault it. Easy to find and very clean and comfortable. The welcome pack had tonnes of information and reccomendations for food, activities and experiences in the surrounding area. Open forest, beaches, farm shops and quaint villages all within a half hour drive, but if you don't fancy that, there's plenty thats walkable too. Rachael and her family were very welcoming and friendly, offering us vegetables from their garden and answering our many questions. The surrounding area is beautiful and if you're looking for a jumping off point to explore the New Forest, you'd be hard pressed to find a better one. They also have great tastes in biscuits!
