We had a weeks stay at Chestnuts in September, myself and partner and my 85 year old father. Dad had a single garden room (12) and we were in a front facing double on the first floor (10). I must admit to being a bit taken aback when we were shown Dads room as it's through the hotel and out... More

We have just enjoyed a lovely week here with friends and other friendly guests. Chris and son Luke provided excellent food and service . The bedrooms were small doubles but extremely clean. There is good off road parking and the Chestnuts is so well situated only minutes away from the beach one way and old Shanklin the other way. A... More

Both rooms spotless, the bathrooms too. Fantastic breakfast - not greasy! Lovely atmosphere especially when having a little drink... More

We stayed for a short weekend break - managing to choose the weekend Cowes Week was just finishing, so everywhere was quite busy. We were lucky to get a room at Chestnuts - which we found after looking at TripAdvisor, naturally! Friendly hosts were very welcoming, and we noticed how at breakfast, they accommodated everyone's individual wishes (funny how everyone... More

We enjoyed a great week at the Chestnuts in July. The Hotel is well positioned and is very close to the beach( just a few minutes from the high street). Free parking is also a plus point. Chris was a lovely host, very helpful and pleasant. Luke her son, cooked our very nice breakfasts. We would happily return should we... More

I have two small children one aged 2.5 and one 10 months, Chris has gone out of her way to help with all the baby stuff, ie steralising bottles, making up feeds and putting up very patiently with toddler...
