Rylstone Manor

“Lovely room, really clean, excellent breakfast, very friendly hosts. Set in a beautiful place, close walking distance to everything.”

“Mike and Carole were wonderful hosts from the moment we arrived, and we really felt as though we were guests in their own home. Whichever room you're staying in, you adopt its name as your own, so we became known as the 'Willows' for 3 nights. This is used when placing breakfast orders, which are confirmed the evening before at reception. The hotel itself is very well kept, and sits in a fantastic location just a short walk from Shanklin town centre and the coastal path leading down to the beach. There are a number of activities along the beach front, including crazy golf, and several cafes and restaurants. From the beach you can continue north towards Sandown, or take the coastal path south towards Ventnor. The town centre has a variety of small shops, cafes, tea rooms and pubs, with a continuing theme throughout. Our timing weather-wise wasn't the best being the first weekend of October, so for 2 of the 3 days we couldn't venture very far. We found the hotel room very comfortable when killing a couple of hours here and there, and the town provided enough to keep us entertained. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our time at Rylstone Manor, and would certainly consider visiting again in the spring or summer.”

“All run very smoothly considering the problems we are all facing due to 19”

“Clean spacious bedroom in a period home. Handy location to walk into Old Shanklin with pretty thatched cottages and restaurants. Also if mobility not a problem can walk down the cliff steps to the beach in 10 minutes. Carole and Mike were great friendly hosts with lots of island knowledge. Mike cooks a great breakfast.”
