Luckily for us the weather in Cowes was pretty good so we didn’t spend a lot of time at the house. On the days it rained it exposed the multiple holes in the roof which appeared to have been there for sometime. We reported this and a guy came out and said, “they told me there was a report of a small leak” but this is much bigger than that” and we never saw him again. We also reported a leak from the dishwasher that was never attended too. Great location, but overall the property was a disappointment when you are paying 1,000 a night..
