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.

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.

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.
