Family getaway to celebrate a 70th
I had checked day before about check-in and advised I’d receive details 30mins prior to check-in time. I did not receive this and had to contact. Apparently a glitch in the software not telling the manager we were coming. On arrival the house hadn’t been cleaned from previous people and we had to wait 1 1/2 hrs - which was ok but not expected- we were offered an extra night, however couldn’t take it but got a late checkout. Then no hot water and spa was cold so had to contact again. Very accommodating manager. The house is in a prime location and outdoor area amazing for a big group, however all very tired and in need of maintenance to look like the photos advertised. Towels and linen also could be upgraded for the price. A little disappointed however had a lovely time in the outdoor space.

The Deck is awesome!
Great location, walk to everything on Cowes. The spaces were ideal for our group, with both the spa, bar and outdoor entertaining areas getting a solid workout. The host was easy to deal with and check in was easy. Do make sure you recycle according to the notice in the cork board in the kitchen. Everything was great, and we would stay here again.

Unsure about the spa…
The owner/ host of this house is fantastic! He is quick to respond and very kind. However, the main issue we had with this place was the spa. Majority of our group left with rashes/ pimples on our bodies. The cleaner for this property is very unprofessional, lacks care and does not answer the phone when you try to call her.

Perfect!
Our family weekend getaway was wonderful and the house was perfect for our needs. Close to the main street for shopping, groceries, restaurants and cafes and the kids all had a great time in the spa, which was heated to a perfect 38degrees. Even though the weather was cold it was so cosy inside the house. The potbelly stove in the outdoor space provided a beautiful area for the adults to sit and enjoy a few drinks in the evening ... will definitely be rebooking The Deck for the future.
