Myself and my wife have just returned from a 3 night stay at The Avenue. You simply couldn’t wish for more kind, hospitable hosts than father and son team Simon & Jonathan. We were greeted warmly and felt very at home straight away. Our room, room 6, was spotlessly clean, spacious, lovely en suite with a great shower. Very comfortable bed and peaceful surroundings ensured a good nights sleep. Breakfasts are allocated to your personal table, everything cooked fresh and high quality with plenty of choice. Cereals, fresh fruit beforehand, there isn’t anything else you could need. Simon and Jonathan are really genuine and sincere in their wish that you have the most comfortable and pleasant stay. I’d like to give them a huge thank you for giving us such a lovely break in Shanklin 🙂👍

From the moment you are greeted by Jonathan and Simon a father and son team you know you are in for a real personal experience. No reception desk you are guided to the lounge with its comfy seating where you are given a full run down of amenities from the very reasonably priced and exceptionally stocked honesty bar, to the breakfast room where you are allocated your table to the lovely garden area and spacious comfortable conservatory. Simon gave us a rundown of what we could find locally from restaurants to busses and trains and what was on at the charming Shankling theatre. We went to a terrific Carpenters tribute band. The room (8) was huge with a comfortable bed, leather couch and all the things you would expect. Bathroom was also large and well appointed with a good shower. Everything was immaculately clean and nicely decorated. Breakfast was good and cooked for you fresh and individually by Jonathan, served to you by Simon who was always polite professional and interested in what you had done and what you wanted to do. Advice freely given on all aspects. We would certainly return to this charming guesthouse if we come back to Shanklin.

A fantastic B&B close to good bus routes and train station and lots of good restaurants nearby. The accommodation is very bright and clean and in a perfect location in Shanklin. And able to easily walk to beach, old village, shops etc The father and son host are excellent very friendly and welcoming and nothing is too much trouble for them. The breakfast was excellent and a great way to start the day. There is a nice bar and lounge area to chill in the bar is a honesty bar you help yourselves and write down your room and what you have and pay for before you leave the property.

I booked 2 nights here as we had got married 20 years before in this hotel. What can I say, Simon was fab with the booking, understanding I wanted a certain night (our wedding anniversary) and sorted out no problem (we even got the room we spent the night of our marriage in) Simon and his son where so helpful and informative about the local area and the island (we are islanders ourself) the information around the hotel and in the rooms was fantastic. The room was lovely and clean and the bed very comfy. I had heard loads about breakfast on here and wow what a breakfast, all dietary requirements where no issue and we started the day very full up. The Avenue had changed alot since we last came and everywhere was clean and tidy. Would definitely recommend family and friends to stay here Big thank you to Simon and his son ( sorry forgot your name) for a lovely stay. Might be back in 10-20 years. :)
