OK for summer, not really for winter
It is tiny as advised, but if you plan to be out and about for most of the time, and are just looking for a place to sleep, this place should be good in the warm weather.

Description of property
While the property was advertised as being small. It was actually the size of a matchbox. No indoor seating and nowhere to put anything. The outdoor area was grubby and uncomfortable to be in.

Cams tiny house was a cosy and comfortable stay for a solo traveller plus cat. A short walk to the beach, a short drive or leisurely walk to the shops in Cowes. I didn’t get to enjoy the outside space due to bad weather but it had all you needed for a quiet getaway & Cam was a great host.

The bungalow is tiny, but comfortable and you have a lot of areas outside to use. The garden is all enclosed, so it's perfect when bringing your dog. Beautiful area and close to the wonderful beach.

Tiny cabin but surrounded by relaxing gardens and walking distance to lovely beachs
This is tiny (22sq/m) but clean & great location but try & avoid hot weather as it only has an air cooler not an air conditioner. Owner indicated he was going to upgrade to a split system next month

Quiet and comfortable cabin
We had a great holiday staying at the Cowes cabin. The outdoor area has everything you need eg. Fire pit, bbq, lounge area. The cabin is new and clean and the bed is super comfy. The location is perfect, 5 min stroll to the beach and a 5 min drive to Cowes. Cameron was a great host and went over and above to make our stay comfortable and gave us great tips for fishing spots. We will definitely stay again.
