I enjoyed my stay at The Kenbury. It's close to the train station and the bus stop is close by. Nice property, lovely staff, comfy firm bed and a nice breakfast selection. Loved having a mini fridge in my room with fresh milk and water, but only quibble is that the fridge is a bit noisy. I would recommend The Kenbury to anyone wanting a nice and cosy place to stay in Shanklin

Great B&B
Very nice B&B and Paolo was great. Good breakfast, comfortable bed and kept very clean. A short walk to the Esplanade or into town. Only downside is parking, there was enough when we were there (even with the typical Mercedes driver taking 2 spaces!) but inconsiderate neighbours parked (or dumped!) their old vans outside making it tricky to get in and out. Would definitely go again and recommend.

Cracking Guesthouse..You Wont Be Disappointed
A great guesthouse which is better than many 4star hotels. Staying in a Superior Room it was a good size, lovely and clean and with great extras such as separate "Dressing Room", fridge, fresh milk, complimentary water, pod coffee machine, slippers and towelling gowns.The usual tea & coffee facilities also had a wide choice including hot chocolate and shortbread biscuits. Breakfast was delicious cooked to order with plenty of self serve toast, cereals, juices, yogurts etc. to compliment. Service was brilliant. I chose this guesthouse on its reviews and was not disappointed. An excellent 3 day break our thanks to hosts Paulo and Paul.
