We are rated four star by VisitEngland and have recently received their coveted Silver Award for the high quality of our accommodation. Our beautiful garden overlooking the sea has been shortlisted for the Wight in Bloom award for 2016. Please note we only accommodate children over 10yrs.

With a beautiful cliff top location, The Clifton boasts views over Sandown Bay from its conservatory lounge and garden. Leading onto Keats's Green, it has a bistro that uses local produce in its menu.

Many bedrooms have views of the Isle of Wight’s coast, and some have a balcony. Each room features free Wi-Fi, a TV, radio, a private bathroom and free tea, coffee and hot chocolate facilities.

The dining room provides home-cooked food using seasonal ingredients from the nearby farmland. Special dietary requirements can be catered for. The bar stocks beers brewed on the Isle.

The garden opens onto the Coastal Walk between Shanklin and Sandown. The picturesque Shanklin Old Village is 5 minutes’ walk away, and Shanklin Chine and the beach are also just a few minutes’ walk.

A guide to great places near The Clifton

  1. Shanklin Chine

    The cream tea for £4.50 is delicious. Beats the £50 people pay in London!

  5. Shanklin Beach

    It can get crowded during the summer when at high tide. Low tide is much better.

  6. The Crab Inn

    Poor Carvery on this occasion. Stone cold mash and watery cauliflower cheese (not even grilled to finish). Shame. Think it was because the chef was clocking off at 4pm so we had the 'dump & run' :(

    325 m from hotel
    94 High St

  7. Grace's Bakery

    Great for buying local bread. Wouldn't recommend sitting in though.

  8. Shanklin Railway Station (SHN)

    It's like a model railway

  9. Small Hope Beach

    A good, sandy and family friendly beach. There are also beach huts and a cafe. It's best to visit when the tide is low as there's more room!

    Parking is a nightmare. Store is very busy and pallets of stock are left in the isle.
