Lovely top floor room looking out over the sea. Clean and comfortable with great view. Not ultra-modern but hey, it’s an older property. A lift would be great for anyone with heavy luggage but again - it’s a mature property. Breakfast was guest class - great fruit selection and cooked breakfast too. Can’t fault it. Staff were friendly and religious. Ample parking. Good location got a cliff top stroll, close to the Chine and a short walk to the town. All good. Thoroughly recommended for a stay in Shanklin.

The breakfast was good and enough choice provided..There was good choice of cereal and options for a cooked breakfast.
As I have difficulty climbing stairs I was disappointed that our room was on the very top floor and there was no lift. Although porterage was offered on the paperwork there was no-one available. The room was small and a bit dated and therefore did not think that it was value for money in my personal opinion.Also it was stated there was a bar available however we were told it closed at 5pm.!!!! Therefore was not available in the evening..

Good location with sea views, easy walk to both the old village and town with car parking on site. Good extensive breakfast menu.
Double room was very small and en-suite a small shower room. Guest information read like a rule book. Bar closed at 5pm and lounge area felt bleak.
