My wife and I have just returned from a short break in The Isle of Wight where we stayed at The Birkdale. One word sums up this hotel perfectly, "FANTASTIC". From the moment we arrived we were greeted with a warm welcome and a very much appreciated cup of coffee. Our room was lovely and bright with probably the most... More

A very enjoyable stay in a 7 bedroom hotel in the heart of Old Shanklin close to many restaurants and pubs. Bedroom and en-suite excellent and to a very high standard. Breakfasts very good from an extensive menu and provided by genial ,friendly hosts. By far the best hotel we have used and very good value for money. More

You'd have to be pretty picky to find anything wrong with this beautiful little guest house. The owners are wonderful, the breakfast is amazing and the rooms are gorgeous. Powerful shower, huge comfy bed, lovely furniture. It's in Old Shanklin which is so picturesque. Best of all though.... NO KIDS ALLOWED!! More

Just returned from a 3 night stay at the Belmont - our first visit to this hotel. The hotel is situated just off of the main road in the centre of Shanklin with easy access to both the shops and the beech. Off road parking at the front of the hotel meant it was easy to drive straight into one... More

Our room had recently been refurbished to a high quality. Hosts were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was delicious, with a good range to choose from. Great location to walk into the town or to the beach, and we tried some good restaurants, we particularly loved The Black Cat thai restaurant. More
