Beautiful B&B in English country home style. Our stay felt like a luxurious treat. Breakfast was delicious. Owners super nice. We loved the short walk to the beautiful beach through the back door of the property. We wish we'd stayed longer at this lovely B&B, and also on Pillip Island. It's such a special, charming and amazing place.

Amazing and unique place to stay in a very peaceful residential area of Cowes, the main town of Phillip Island. Vanessa was a fantastic host and very welcoming. She allowed us to stay a little longer than checkout since no one else was arriving, which gave us more time to explore the beautiful island. Cereal, bread and milk were provided for breakfast, along with Vanessa's homemade jam. The bed was huge and comfy. Really wish we could have had more than one night.

    The penguins were an essential visit and didn’t disappoint.

    The penguins were an essential visit and didn’t disappoint. Lots of wildlife to see. Local venues had live music and the food was wonderful. Only draw back is Cowes seems to shut down after 10pm, so need your own entertainment after that, we just listened to the ocean and relaxed.

    Cowes is a lovely shore side town on Phillip Island.

    Cowes is a lovely shore side town on Phillip Island. It is at the far end of the island from the bridge to cross over to the island. The town is well equipped with all softs of shops, and is a good spot to use as a base to travel around the island and experience all the sights that are available.

    Cowes is a cool climate beach and water. If you cannot afford cost or time to get warmer water, enjoy what is affordable at Cowes. If you want extras, try half-hour drive to San Remo pub, or one hour to Wonthaggi.

    We did a mosaics class at Mosaics by the Bay, located in Ventnor. I've been to Cowes a few times and the shopping and restaurants are very good. The beach is really nice. It is very easy to get around. It can be very busy during peak seasons. There are the penguin parade, whale watching certain times of the year, adventure parks, mini golf at Grumpy's. There is a lot to do for couples as well as families.

    The home was extremely spacious with 3 living zones, one we used with the fold-out sofa as an extra bedroom. Eating outside in the fully enclosed sunroom meant no dramas when the kids dropped food. Air con was more than sufficient in cooling the home. The home was immaculately clean and the kitchen was well appointed. Only minutes from Cowes town centre and all the local attractions of Phillip Island. There was a fully secured garage and lush lawn in the back yard...the kids had so much room to play.

    Glen Isla House is the perfect accommodation to visit Phillip Island. Richard and Eave have been very welcoming and gave us all the information we needed to plan our visit. The location is very quiet and the lounge where breakfast is served is to a very high standard, not to mention the quality of the food being served (everything freshly baked) and the delicious coffee made by Richard with his Jura coffee machine.

    It was in a perfect location. View was amazing. Cafe next door for breakfast. After travelling around Phillip Island we were very pleased that we had picked CScape and Cowes as everything was on hand for a wonderful weekend which was for our Ruby wedding anniversary. Lots of different restaurants were just a few minutes walk. Thoroughly recommended. Thank you.
