Excellent location in Shanklin, a short distance walk from everything. We stayed during the peak of hot weather, so my only grumble is lack of some air con. Otherwise staff were friendly and breakfast was cooked well. Dog friendly and dog also enjoyed his stay and sausage at breakfast!

Nice B&B

For the price it was a very nice B&B. The room was adequate but had all I required. Breakfast was very nice. The hotel is situated close to the town and only a short walk to the beach, although the walk is quite steep. The owners are very friendly and happy to help out with information and directions. If I ever need a B&B in Shanklin again I will certainly look for the Braemar again

Lovely clean room although a bit small as we booked the cheaper room which is small which we didnt realise. Excellent location right near beach and town. Boz was very helpful and gave us lots of hints and tips on where to go. We will be back.
