Haven Hall

Absolutely wondrous location and fabulous B&B! Ohhh my. Sumptuous! Gorgeously decorated... smiling friendly host and hostess..... David and Arielle. Food.. superb Catering to me as American.. my partner....British... both continents represented at breakfast along with delicious homemade lemon curd and rhubarb ham ( huge fan!) With that said.... Exhaust fan in bath needed cleaning. Dodged pigeon feathers in pool due to filter not running. Photos of “famous” people who have stayed there pointed out ......unnecessary. We loved it there without knowing. Did not feel we needed an endorsement in order to stay there. It stood out on it’s own. A tremendous effort has been put into this accommodation.. clearly. We thoroughly enjoyed leafing through the photo album depicting the love, sweat and tears of the renovation so lovingly completed. Amazing....not stone left unturned! Would we return...YES! Recommend? Absolutely

If you ever decide to visit the Isle of Wight, then be sure to stay at the Haven Hall Hotel in Shanklin for at least one night. This wonderful guest house style hotel is beautifully located where you can enjoy one of the best views of the sea. A well-groomed landscape garden with an abundance of flowers pleases the eye - a wonderful example of traditional English style. At the end of the alley, running through the entire garden is an elegant arbour where you can take amazing photos! The hotel has a swimming pool and tennis court. Near the hotel, there is the beautiful Shanklin beach and a walking area with several restaurants serving delightful seafood. Haven Hall's interior is distinguished by a special old-fashioned charm and elegance. All guest rooms have their own unique decor, all the details of which have been matched with taste and care. The rooms have everything you need: fridge, coffee maker, kettle, iron. The owners are a charming couple who are very attentive and hospitable. They take care to provide guests with maximum comfort, try to take into account all wishes and provided us with interesting and useful information about the island. Breakfast is served in a beautiful room overlooking the sea. Be sure to try the pancakes prepared by the hostess of Haven Hall! We left with very warm feelings as if spending these unforgettable 3 days with friends. Will definitely come back here!

No question this is the finest place to stay on the Isle of Wight. David and Arielle have executed their vision to a truly first class standard. Extraordinary views and grounds, brand-new beautiful accommodations, terrific breakfast to start the day and hosts who love what they have built.
