Our space was clean and bright , quiet and spacious. Our hosts were welcoming, personable and made sure we had what we needed. The amenities were convenient and it was nice to have fresh milk in the fridge for coffee/tea in the morning as well as complimentary treats. Thank you. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this location and the area overall.

Very clean and spacious
Extremely clean and in good working order. Linen and sheets all crispy clean. Very spacious layout. We booked a queen bed and twin bed set up for 3 people and we were not falling over each other or our bags. Table was set for 3. Tea and coffee making was included with ample tea bags for 2 days for 3 people and a complimentary pack of biscuits - a very nice touch. Also included were 2 small tetra pack of milk. Kitchen kit for cleaning came in sealed packs.

Stayed one night at motel as it was close driving distance to Penguin Parade at Phillip Island. Comfortable bed, quiet and good shower pressure. Friendly owner. Close to plenty of dining options in town. Highly recommend this motel if you’re staying in Cowes.
