we were greeted by lovely warren, hospitality was fantastic. He offered us drinks and introduced us to the island, the village, & then grange bank house. He led us to our rooms, the house is very well kept clean. Everything you need is there from coffee making fascilities, fridge & water which is being restocked daily and anything you need, you can just ask. Even bathrobes! It was like being in a hotel! Chocolates are left by your door every evening too!
Our second day, we met the lively pete who served us breakfast. Breakfast is freshly done and enough to keep you full for the rest of the day! You can order from cereal to cooked - cannot be faulted! Breakfast is always full of laughter & it gives a great vibe to start the day. They do allow guests to bring in take aways but not to eat in rooms, you can always let them know & they can set up a table with plates & cutleries in the dining room.
They have a very beautiful lounge with a honesty bar full of drinks to choose from. Wifi was strong but internet in the village has dead spots spots.
There is ample parking, also a large car park in the village. Everything is walking distance to the beech, to shanklin chine, shops, restaurants & it is a very good base, no matter where you want to go in the island. They do cater for guests with pets as well.
I will not hesitate to recommend this place to anybody and surely be coming back on our next visit. Warren & Pete are the best host!
