Ideal for nature-lovers looking for a self-sufficient getaway, lodges are fully furnished and self-catered. Usually made of wood and surrounded by forests or mountains, lodges can be part of a group or a single unit. More remote than holiday homes, lodges are popular for safari trips.
Bryan and his team, the lady who served breakfast was so friendly and the service was really great. We were amazed with Bryan who owns and runs this Chester Lodge due to the service.
Wendy you are a wonderful host. The lodge has got a very good standard of cleanliness and hygiene. Will recommend to all my friends and family too. Had a lovely and comfortable stay 😍
Fabulous guest house, clean, comfortable and inviting. Breakfast was really lovely, great selection and all freshly cooked, sets you up for the day.
Great location, 5 minute walk to Sandown seafront, some nice restaurants.
Stayed in the Gentlemen's room, very comfortable.
Emma and Gordon are such lovely hosts, friendly, helpful and nothing is too much trouble.
We highly recommend The Bell Lodge, you will be hard pushed to find better.
The property was very close to the seafront and only a short walk from the pier and beach. The owners were so lovely, very polite, friendly and accommodating. We had the one of the top apartments (no 6) there was 3 of us (2 adults and 1 child) and it was very spacious with enough room for everyone. We loved our stay and would definitely recommend booking Victoria Lodge.
Bed was comfy, great location, good ensuite size, entertainment and bar on site was good. Room a good size set up like a Travelodge or Premier Inn bedroom very similar in style.
Was a good decision to book here at chester lodge, i arive early and the staff have all ready my room, very clean, very beautiful location, the staff was very friendly.
The Bell Lodge is a very good choice when staying in Sandown. The rooms are cosy and comfortable and the hosts were extraordinarily considerate and affable; they even drove us back to the ferry terminal. Breakfast was spot-on. This is to be ordered beforehand on a form: tea, bacon, sausages, eggs, mushrooms and what-have-you were all highly relishable. The guesthouse is conveniently located a stroll away from the beach, pubs and amenities. An excellent establishment.
Emma and Gordon are the most amazing hosts! I felt from the very first second like home. The Bell Lodge is a very warm, familiar place to stay with a charming interior and extra ordinary hosts. You feel that they care and like to meet new people. I felt so welcomed I extended my breakfast for an hour just to simply chat !!!
Will definitely returning!!
Thank you
