“There's a definite charm in this Victorian building, close to the beach and transport, that provides a solid base for exploring the Isle of Wight; the homemade marmalade at breakfast is a particularly nice touch. Though rooms can be compact and variable, the staff clearly care about the place, and that personal warmth makes a difference. It's a good choice if you value location and character.”
