About the home

“Purple Goose at Red Rocks” is a delightful single-storey family home in Cowes just a comfortable walk from the Red Rocks beach and a short drive from the supermarkets, restaurants & cafés of Cowes. Some of the many features of this lovely home are detailed below:

Indoor Areas

The large open plan Living/Dining Room (with TV, DVD player, Google chrome, tower stereo, 2 x bean bags), provides access to the rear Deck, and flows through to the dual-entrance Kitchen. A Central Hallway leads to Bedroom 1 (with TV, DVD player & BIR), Bedroom 2 (with BIR) and Bedroom 3, the Bathroom (with shower & toilet), and the fully equipped Laundry (with washing machine & clothes dryer) which has a 2nd separate Toilet and additional access to the rear deck.

Outdoor Areas

The fantastic large covered rear deck (with gas BBQ, table & chairs for 8, 2 additional relax chairs and a hammock) is perfect for relaxing/entertaining, and overlooks the fully enclosed yard which is perfect for children and dogs alike (no cats please). The deck also features a convenient shower base with hot/cold water to wash off after the beach (for people & pets), and there is a large dog enclosure in the rear yard too (with bed & bowl provided). There is no access to the shed, but plenty of space for 2 cars on the front driveway and additional space for 1-2 more vehicles (cars and/or a boat) in the rear yard.

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, gas oven and cook top.

Heating/Cooling Systems

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.
