We stayed for a couple of nights in May 2013, and enjoyed our stay. Well positioned for exploring the east and south coasts of the IOW. Very clean and well equipped. Beautiful scenery for walking or cycling. Would certainly recommend.

This was the first time we have stayed at Rosemary Bed & Breakfast on the Isle Of Wight, I would certainly recommend it to anyone who wants to be thoroughly spoiled and fussed over.
