My wife and I were very well looked after by Margaret, the owner. She was friendly, kind and considerate, and seemed to appreciate a chat. The room was excellent, despite the squeaky floorboards. The breakfasts were superb, and the cooked portion produced quickly. Margaret gave us dinner on our first evening, despite not normally providing dinner in the off-season. Altogether, a very pleasant experience, and we would have no hesitation in staying again. Thank you, Margaret!

Lovely hostess (we endorse all previous reviewers' comments to that effect). Nothing is too much trouble, whether exotic teabags or bottomless knowledge of the island, warmly and freely given. The house is a bit of a labyrinth, but with opulent and spacious reception rooms and bedrooms. Wonderful breakfasts and perfect mix of self-service with table service, the latter attentive but unassuming and not ingratiating. The experience probably isn't for those who expect ultra-modern minimalist surroundings, but everything works perfectly and is lovingly maintained. Buy into the experience and you'll love it. One of a kind!

All aspects outstanding - the history and furnishings were fabulous, the rooms and views over The Solent superb, the welcome warm and hospitable, breakfast choices and quality excellent. There is easy car parking, 1gbt wifi, an honesty bar and terrace for summer morning breakfasts. Maggie did everything possible to make our stay enjoyable, including offering to dry wet clothes and golf gear for our group of seven - can't thank her highly enough.

Loved the North facing balcony as we were there in heatwave. Great view of the sea, and you could see sunrise and sunset from the same spot. Short walk down the zigzag path to get to the beach or along the road to Northwood House. Zac was very accommodating setting a breakfast table in the lounge so we could bring the poodle. Much appreciated, thanks.

The hotel is so sumptuous with an eclectic range of furniture and memorabilia of sailing and life gone by. Such fabulous views from glorious windows. Clean and luxurious and comfortable. Great communication. What a wonderful place to experience as part of our walking holiday. In a quiet area of West Cowes

A great escape for a chilled relaxing break. Breakfast was superb, and Zac who served us couldn’t do enough for us great service. Margaret was so helpful and knowledgeable. Knew everything you needed to know about the Island down to the daily report on the chain ferry.

An older property with fabulous original features. Sumptuous carpeting. Nautical themes throughout. Wonderful staircase. Brilliant sea view from our room. Breakfast was excellent! Plenty of choice.

The location is superb overlooking the Solent, it was lovely having breakfast in front of the open patio doors overlooking the water. We have been to Villa Rothsay before for dinner, but not stayed. While the villa is amazing decorated to reflect a bygone era and it's so interesting looking at all the pictures and artefacts, our room was more modern, very comfortable and clean. We'd definitely stay again.

Very comfortable and clean room, with a squeaky clean bathroom, and a balcony which overlooks the sea. Only 5 mins walk to the beach in West Cows. Very friendly and helpful staff. Also, the accommodation has a nice victorian decorated for breakfast with a nice view of the sea. Breakfast was lush and generous. We had a lovely stay, and I would definitely come back there again. Highly recommended in general.
