Very hospitable father&son team.

Very good hospitable father&son host. Poached eggs at breakfast the best we've had. Other gussts had good ideas/suggestions too as to what was happening in the area for free too, but was too late for us as we were leaving after a 2 night stay. Bed very comfortable. Maybe just a bit of updating in decor needed, but otherwise, yes we would stay again.

Pleasant stay

When we arrived we were greeted with a very warm welcome. We were asked about dietary needs/requirements which is a lovely touch and shows the owners care about their clients. We’ve never been asked at other hotels in the past. Room was clean, tidy and very comfortable. Bathroom was clean and had a lovely big shower. Breakfast was cooked fresh, plentiful and nothing was too much trouble. Overall one of the best places we’ve stayed at so far.

Wonderful guesthouse in a quiet location

We had a lovely stay at The Avenue. The owners were extremely friendly and helpful and made us feel at home. The breakfasts were amazing. It is in a nice quiet neighbourhood but very close to everything in Shanklin and the beach. The rooms were very nice and clean and everything is being done perfectly in respect of Covid. The only minor thing was there were no chairs in the room, only a stool, and therefore not quite as comfortable spending time in the room as i would have liked but this is just a minor thing to mention in what is a very well run guesthouse. Recommended.

Excellent hosts

Excellent hosts. Welcoming, attentive and friendly. Excellent breakfast and choices. Wanting to ensure your stay is as comfortable as possible. Honesty bar with good selection of alcohol and soft drinks. Great location to Shanklin. Rooms clean and good size. Tea and coffee making facilities etc. Ensuite excellent. Double size shower tray piping hot water. Mattress was very 'springy' and could probably do with being being replaced. However overall an excellent experience

Memorable experience.

Great B&B within walking distance of all of Shanklin main attraction run by a dynamic and very knowledgeable father and son duo. We went over for our anniversary and it was an amazing experience, with very helpful hosts. The Avenue was well presented, clean and with everything you need for a trip. The bar is well stocked and reasonably priced. Great breakfast which on good days can be eaten outside in the back garden.
