    As the guest house was full, parking meant people would inevitably block each other in. Not too much of a problem if you're happy to discuss what time you plan on leaving with the other guests over breakfast, though. 🙂

    Really friendly hosts. Very comfortable stay.

    The bed was comfortable but small so it wasn't a double for us. It's hard to adjust the hot water in the bathroom.

    Double bed was little small for us.

    The breakfast was great, prepared with love and care. The room was very spacious and airy, with a large bathroom. It was clean and cozy, and the bed was comfortable. There was plenty of tea, coffee, and milk available to make our own drinks. The place was quiet, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

    Would be lovely to have a bigger bed as the room was certainly large enough to hold a king size or even larger bed. The breakfast time was too early for us, it would have been good if it was a bit later as some people like a lie in on holiday. The check in and out times were very precise. We understand that the B&B is their home but a little more flexibility would be good. This said they are running a successful business and they do make all this clear when you book. 😀

    The rooms were very spacious and well equipped. It was very clean and had parking on the drive. Comfortable mattress and pillows . Very quiet and not overlooked. Close to the town and walking to the old part of Shanklin and the beach.

    All great!!

    Very clean, quiet and comfortable place to stay. Not far from the station, with shops. the old village and restaurants all nearby. Caz and Mike were really nice and kept checking with us if we needed anything. Great home cooked breakfasts, with lots of choice. A big thank you to Caz and Mike for opening he breakfast room earlier one day when we had a early coaster bus to catch to visit or friends in Freshwater. If you want a quiet place to stay with home comforts, I recommend the Richmond B & B.

    Nothing.

    We booked this B&B on the recommendation of our friends who moved to the Isle. They had stayed here before and their recommendation was on point. The owners were professional and helpful and we were able to park on the front drive. Checking in was a doodle and after arranging breakfast we were shown to our room on the first floor; it looked out at Regent Street. You can see the owners have not only invested in the property but they have given thought to what is needed when staying at a B&B. Not only is there plenty of storage space, a hairdryer and sewing kit but you get makeup removing eye wipes to sanitary bags. You can make a cuppa in your room with a huge range of teas and coffees including Decaffeinated coffee including plenty of milk and sugar For those - like me - we had a shower that was definitely not cold! You get shower gel and hand soap if you've forgotten yours! A TV is provided in the room which is a godsend for me because I don't sleep very well. The bonus is it had a timer I could programe so I could go to sleep with it on. Breakfast : Take your pick! They had fresh juice, tea and coffee and yes they had decaffeinated! My husband had an English fry up both days and I had poached egg on toast. There were cereals, today, fresh fruit and yoghourts. All in all... First class. Will we return? Absolutely!
