Threatening weather After a day of almost unbroken sunshine, at about 4 o'clock the sky had taken a very dark appearance and heavy rain was not far behind.
Friars Cliff Beach from Steamer Point This view is looking west from the cliff top at Steamer Point. It gets its name from the old paddle steamer that was beached here in about 1830, and used as a site office for the construction of Highcliffe Castle. Afterwards, the boat became a beach house for about 60 years but fell into disuse and dereliction at the turn of the 20th century. It has now given its name to Steamer Point Nature Reserve, further up the cliffs to the east.
Waves, groynes and lighthouse view Looking across the Solent on this windy afternoon, the red light of the Needles lighthouse can just be discerned far right of picture.

8.6/10 Excellent! (1,270 reviews)
Unfortunately external building works were being undertaken, which was noisy. Combined with the very noisy air-conditioning at 02:00, made for difficult sleeping. Staff lovely, amenities fair, good position for city centre and university. Bar rather expensive.
