Haven Hall Hotel

Hotel in Shanklin

Situated within 2 acres of land, Haven Hall Hotel offers accommodation in Shanklin Isle of Wight. The property is located on the cliff top, offering views of the sea, cliffs and the bay.

From

Haven Hall is magnificent, a real home away from home, a spiritual gateway to a bygone age. The interior design is gorgeous: tastefully restored period furniture from the Edwardian era, charming soft cushions, an exquisitely crafted wooden fireplace from 1906, lovely lampshades everywhere, crystal chandeliers, splendid mantel clocks, model sailboats. From the outside you hear a gentle, trickling sound from a water fountain, coupled with the occasional calls of seagulls. However, when windows are closed, your room is absolutely quiet, you have a perfect serenity, I always had such a good night’s sleep. The garden is incredible: manicured lawns, flowers in full blossom, lavish palm trees, sweeping panoramic views to the sea. Birds and butterflies everywhere. Not even on the Mediterranean have I seen such a beautiful landscape. David and Arielle’s hospitality is second to none. Whenever I sent an inquiry before my arrival, they always replied within minutes. I was welcomed like a privileged friend in their house, nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was the highlight of my days. When I mentioned how much I had liked Arielle’s home-made banana bread during my previous stay, she kindly prepared one for the next day, even though it was not yet on the breakfast menu of the season. It was heavenly delicious with rhubarb custard and lemon curd, I could enjoy it every single day. I also adored their Eggs Royale with warm sauce hollandaise. This was my third stay here, but I have already made a new booking for September. I’m ever so happy and proud to have found such a blissful retreat on a fairy-tale island. I simply can’t have enough of this magical world. Highly recommend.

FAQs about hotels on Isle of Wight

Wonders of Wordplay and Nature’s Way

With dramatic cliffs and unspoilt countryside, the Isle of Wight sits off England’s south coast. Ferries from Southampton cross The Solent to Cowes, a sleepy port which bursts into life during its annual regatta – Cowes Week.

Over the inlet is Osborne House, Queen Victoria’s summer home, while Henry VIII was behind the construction of the castle in Yarmouth. Neighbouring Freshwater is the closest town to the multi-coloured sands of Alum Bay. Next door are the Needles which you can’t thread, as the Wonders of the Isle of Wight saying goes. These eroded white cliff formations, one with a lighthouse, extend into the English Channel at the island’s south-western tip.

Near the southern tip is Chale, next to Blackgang Chine children’s amusement park, and close to Ventnor, on a hill sloping to the sea. Around the coast are the most popular beach resorts: Sandown with its nature reserve, and Shanklin with its cute Old Village and the most Isle of Wight hotels with indoor pools on Booking.com. Seaview also has a nature reserve, and nearby Ryde is a Victorian beach resort whose long pier is the docking point for ferries from Portsmouth.

Other hotels on the Isle of Wight are found in Wootton Bridge, with its steam railway, and the county town Newport, home to Carisbrooke Castle.

    The exceptionally helpful and professional staff, together with the welcoming and relaxing atmosphere of the hotel, guaranteed a most enjoyable stay. Our room was extremely comfortable and most attractive with an en-suite bathroom in which everything functioned perfectly. Breakfast at the hotel was one of the high points of the day and for the staff, nothing was too much trouble: the dishes served from the extensive menu were all quite delicious. The Royal truly is a most remarkable hotel.

    Everything. The location - serenity and tranquility. The facilities were just right, nothing more to add to it. Just pure perfection! The bus ride from the transport interchange to the bay, by Bus, was always enjoyable. Took a trip into Bembridge to a Chinese restaurant and a COOP shop. The entire community is beautiful.

    Ryde is a great place to visit.

    Ryde is a great place to visit. The beach is particularly beautiful and has very pleasant walks along its length with lots of places to visit. There are also plenty of buses so if like me you don’t drive or as an alternative to driving, you can get to practically anywhere on the Island. There are also some good places to eat in and around the streets of Ryde.

    Cowes is quite busy and noisy, but we expected that. If you want a quiet IOW break, choose one of the resorts on the other side of the island, but for the buzz of the world's yachting capital stick to Cowes. Bus services to all parts of the island are frequent and plentiful.

    Quiet and scenic bay.

    Quiet and scenic bay. Excellent fish and chips at Golden Sands. The Spyglass pub looks over the bay and does lovely food. Toni's does great toasties and boozey hot chocolates. Really lovely vibe and lovely to see so many dog walkers. Ventnor Boat Charters do a good boat trip along the bay and they're really friendly. It has real charm and a good place to stroll along and forget your worries.

    Ideal location for exploring the Island.

    Ideal location for exploring the Island. The variety of good real ale pubs and eating places were a lot less than when I was first in Newport around 15 or so years ago. We tried several pubs, and a tea room/bakery, but on balance the best were not in Newport. The best for drinks - beer at least and wine - was the Newport Ale House; and for food and drink, the Union Inn Cowes, the Red Lion Freshwater, the Bargeman's Rest Newport, the Castle Inn Newport, and top of the list the Highdown Inn Totland Bay ... but there are more to try when we next go for a week of exploration and hiking!

    Freshwater was ok but the beach was not dog friendly so we went to Compton beach a few times, the dog loved it. The Red lion pub served lovely food but you have to book, it gets a bit busy, but the Vine pub serves proper pub grub and their homemade pies were delicious , booking is also recommended but not vital.

Helpful and pleasant staff in shops and restaurants.An especial thank you to Ivory Unisex hairdressers and manicurist for fitting me in at short notice and doing a really good job as well. We particularly liked the Gossip Cafe which provided excellent food and efficient service. The antiques centre is worth a visit and Scoop ice cream is to be recommended.

    The worst part was the central facilities. the Restuarant and the bar area. We booked a table for the 10 of us. based on the menu online. On arrival we were informed that it was a limited menu. (very limited) the staff behind the bar, 5 at one point where available when no one was there but when anyone wanted serving disappeared. Some were more interested in their mobiles. when the food came out, we only had 8 meals and error (what I still don't understand is they used an EPOS system, but the orders were handwritten). Behind us was a table of six they only got three meals. another table also complained. We had asked for confirmation on ordering of 10 meals. when the meals came out in dribs and drabs no one asked if “everything was ok”. basic management was not evident. Although the food was ok. Generally, we found many minor issues with maintenance in the three chalets we booked clearly no maintenance checks. even found someone's underpants in one of the washers. the images of the chalets show big clocks only one had hands on them the other didn't work. one chalet had Wi-Fi although not advertised. in the amusement arcade many of the machines where broken but wouldn't take much fixing. Their seemed to be a major push on selling holiday homes. which looked good and reasonably priced. but the general attitude of the staff and poor use of the facilities will put many off. It’s a real shame that the staff and management are not driving excellence. Our frustrations are from a position that with a little more care this would be an excellent holiday location I would add that we still had a great holiday. Although the chalets where well equipped with a large fridge freezer there is nowhere to store non chilled food! P.S don’t advertise a facility if you cannot deliver.
