The attentiveness of the staff was a highlight at breakfast and that was also outstanding- best poached eggs I have had in ages! We also enjoyed the wonderful garden and the art in the house, and the lovely patio area.

The B&B was less than 5 minutes walk from Sandown beach and was well decorated, spotlessly clean and Margaret was a wonderful host! There was also free on street parking outside the property and we never had trouble parking.

Enchanted Manor rooms are adorned with artwork by Josephine Wall, and most come with hand-carved four-poster beds. An en suite bathroom is included, as well as a TV and tea/coffee making facilities.

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at The Enchanted Manor. The hotel was lovely, and the customer service and friendliness from the hotel owner Peta and her staff was second to none. The food was divine - it was a vegetarian menu, and though my husband and I do eat meat at home, we certainly didn't miss it during our stay. The garlic mushrooms on toast for breakfast was a particular highlight! Peta in particuarly was extrememely knowledgable about the Isle and gave lots of good tips and suggested places to visit when we asked - as newcomers to the Isle of Wight we were extremely grateful. The staff went out of their way to be helpful and accomodating, and there were little touches everywhere of just small things to make your stay more comfortable - from DVDs to borrow, to a little fridge in the room to store bottled water and milk for your morning tea, as well as thoughtful bathroom additions. Our booked room was upgraded on arrival to a suite as we were celebrating our wedding anniversary, and the team thoughtfully gave us a bottle of sparkling wine and a card as well. There was one small issue during our stay - the boiler stopped working properly a few days in to our stay, which led to occaisionally not getting baths or showers when we wanted. However the team tried to resolve as best they could until someone could fix it so we always did manage to get to shower - and they gave us a lovely gift at the end of our holiday to apologise for the hot water issue.

    The Grange is a great place to stay. It's a beautiful old building that is really well kept with lovely period features. The staff, particularly Wendy, are so friendly, and no request is too much trouble. The breakfast was wonderful with a large choice of options. Our room was really comfortable and large with a sea view and looking out over the gorgeous terraced gardens.

    Location and surroundings are excellent - easy walk to village and beach (with options for test of knees and stamina if you wish!) Peace and quiet with very comfortable beds and lounge areas. Garden is excellently designed and maintained. We had a balcony room and the view on a sunny morning was spectacular. The staff are all friendly and helpful without being suffocating. The hotel is not cheap, but if you value having a peaceful and pleasant retreat with lovely views this is it!

    Wonderful staff, lovely breakfast. View fantastic. Brilliant view from a very comfortable and well designed garden overlooking the sea. Nearby lift down to the sea front was very ideal.
