The igloo was the best holiday house we’ve stayed at in the many years visiting the Island. It was spacious, comfortable and beautifully decorated. We had a couple of rainy days during our stay, but the house was so lovely for a relaxing day indoors. The kids loved the exciting and spacious yard. Anita was quick to reply to any questions, and was always very helpful. The kitchen was fully equipped and the showers had great water pressure. The outdoor shower and trough was ideal for rinsing off after the beach. Taller couples might find the double bed in the main bedroom a bit of a squeeze, but you could always each take a double bed - just remember to bring enough sheets. Overall we loved our stay here and can’t wait stay again. It’s a truly memorable house.

We had a lovely stay! The accommodation is really lovely and is perfectly located for restaurants, bars, beach and wildlife such as the penguins and koalas. It’s a perfect place to escape from screens, however if you do want to watch TV, be aware that the TV is a bit small and tucked into the corner of the room, so I’d advise bringing a laptop etc if you want to cosy up and watch a film. Would definitely stay again!

Suburban Cowes. Bit crowded by neighbours, privacy curtains in the living room would improve the experience. However, close to all Cowes has to offer. Clean and well maintained.

We booked 'The Igloo' because it appeared to be an interesting design, well furnished, and reasonably priced, compared with other Cowes properties. We were not at all disappointed - it was excellent. We had to provide our own bed linen, but that was not a problem.

Lovely Igloo

The Igloo is a super place to stay. It has all you need for a relaxing stay. It's in a quiet cul-de-sac but nearer enough to the center of Cowes - a 10 min walk into town.

Beautiful place to stay when in the island. Great location and all the board games make it just as fun staying in than going out. Hosts are really helpful. Will recommend
