"Best views, best location and best choice of facilities of any hotel on the Isle of Wight" 

 

"Immaculately well presented and kept grounds. Customer service was second to none. We very much look forward to coming back again soon. Thank you." Mr Maybanks Chichester

Originally built in 1870 as the summer home for the Bishop of Portsmouth this lovely family-run hotel commands an enviable cliff-top location.

The Grand View Restaurant and many of our bedrooms enjoy glorious sea views. Our Aptly named Grand View Tea Gardens offer spectacular views across Sandown Bay to the distant West Sussex coast.

"We really enjoyed our stay here, the hotel offers excellent value for money . We stayed in an executive room, which was very spacious. The large balcony is a bonus. The vegetarian food selection is some of the best I have had in hotels anywhere."  Mr Robinson, Fareham, Hants

Access to the glorious beaches below are just a step away from our tea gardens although we advise guests to use the 155 steps provided!

"We have enjoyed our family holiday - especially the sea views! We have been looked after very well - nothing was too much trouble!"  Mrs Pike Herne Bay, Kent
