About the home
“Sunset Escape” is a delightful double-storey family home in Sunset Strip just a 10 minute walk from Smiths Beach and a short drive from the supermarkets, restaurants & cafés of Cowes and San Remo. Some of the many features of this lovely home are detailed below:
Indoor Areas
A hallway leads from the front door, providing access to Bedroom 3 (with BIR) and the fully equipped Laundry (with washing machine & clothes dryer) and the stairs. Also downstairs is the large Rumpus Room (with smart TV, DVD Player & some movies) leading to Bedroom 4 (with BIR) and a Bathroom (with shower & toilet). Upstairs is the huge open plan Kitchen/Dining/Living Room (with smart TV), Bedrooms 1 and 2 (each with BIR), a Bathroom (with bath & shower).
Outdoor Areas
The huge wrap-around first floor Deck (with gas BBQ & seating for 10 people) can be accessed from the Living Room and Bedroom 2 and provides a fantastic outdoor space overlooking the enclosed rear yard (with outdoor hot & cold shower) that is ideal for children and pets. The large carport (under the first floor Deck) provides space for up to 2 cars, with additional space on the driveway for another vehicle (car and/or a boat).
Kitchen
The fully appointed kitchen is equipped with cooking utensils, crockery, cutlery, microwave, Aldi pod coffee machine, toaster, kettle, etc. plus a double sink, fridge, dishwasher, electric oven and cook top.
Heating/Cooling Systems
There is a wall mounted reverse cycle air conditioner in the upstairs Living Room and also in the downstairs Rumpus Room, ceiling fans in bedrooms 1 & 2, plus one additional stand-alone fan which can be used where required.

Bedroom 1 (Upstairs): One King bed

Linen
It is common in the region for some linen to be provided for bookings, and some linen to be available as an optional extra. By default, a booking at this home does not include optional linen (top & bottom sheets, bath towels and pillowcases). What is included are doonas (quilts) with covers, pillows without covers, tea towels, hand towels and bathmats. If you would like the optional linen included in your booking, please let us know, including which beds you would like it provided for. The additional cost would be a one-off charge of $30 per bed (some sites add a service fee to these costs) - and we prefer 7 days' notice prior to your arrival to get that arranged.
Peak Periods
Please note that during the peak summer period and other peak times, check in times are set as 3pm unless by prior arrangement. Please also note that if you avail of the optional linen hire over these times, it may involve linen being left out but beds not being made up.

#### Great home away from the hustle and bustle!
The house was lovely and neat, good little backyard, ample room for two small families (one upstairs one downstairs), and located away from the busyness of cowes yet only a 10 minute drive away. Definitely would stay again!

Everything you need for a relaxing beach holiday-comfy beds, spacious living areas, close to the Nobbies, race track and penguins and a short drive down to Cowes. Safe, spacious yard for our dog and for the kids to run around in- will book again, many thanks!
