“The Victorian building houses accommodation that guests have described as modern and comfortable, and I think that it's an ideal base to explore the Isle of Wight. The owners seem very welcoming, and the location on the main road means it's a walk into the old town, with its thatched buildings, and a slightly longer walk downhill to the sea front. Although there is no bar, the good food, particularly breakfast, is a definite draw.”

the room was clean and breakfast was punctual.

The mattress felt SHALLOW and provided little comfort. the shower was small. It was hard to move. I also noticed a crack in the sink that had been poorly repaired, and it still leaked.

Really good Stay!

friendly hostsfull breakfastlovely garden

The hosts were friendly and cute! They provided helpful advice for local sightseeing destinations. I enjoyed the full English breakfast that was cooked to order each morning. The lodge has a lovely front garden perfect for sitting outside.

The tea and coffee making facilities in the room were slightly limited.
