4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 June 2013 NEW

Recently stayed as part of a cycling group. We were in the annexe and the rooms were all fairly new and decently equipped for the price. Attractive building and gardens and well located within Bonchurch. Breakfast was fantastic with loads of choice and an excellent full English. Only disappointment was the Croissants!

Have just returned from a 3 night stay with my mum (aged 70). Wonderful location, beautiful house. Upon arrival we were greeted by Richard (owner) polite & sort of welcoming. Our room (number 5) was totally beautiful & over looking the gardens & with sea view. Double & single bed, small shower room - but perfecly adequate & with a... More

The Lake Hotel is such a wonderful retreat in spectacular gardens, a credit to the owners. We have been returning to the Lake for a number of years as it provides a relaxing atmosphere with an excellent breakfast. The rooms are comfortable and the beds provide a wonderful nights sleep. Richard, Carole and Julie are always available for anything required... More

Excellent hotel in great surroundings, warm welcome, clean & comfortable bedrooms, and superb breakfast menu extremely well cooked. Staff very friendly. Hotel nicely situated for travel around the island. Would recommend my friends to experience it.

I first stayed at this wonderful bed and breakfast when I was a child and found it quite by accident last year when I stayed with my daughter. Of course many changes but the building is as pretty as ever and the garden amazing a new interest around every corner, we loved it so much we booked again this year... More

We spent 4 nights at the Lake & really enjoyed our stay. The house was lovely as were the grounds. The bedrooms were a little old fashioned but comfortable & clean. The breakfast that Richard & Carole served was one of the best we had ever had. Everything was thought of - & we lacked nothing. Delicious! Shame the weather... More

We travelled to this hotel for the second May Bank holiday weekend with our dog and thoroughly enjoyed it. Another reviewer said you will be put in the annexe if you have a dog, but this is not correct. We were upstairs in the main building with wonderful views of the garden. My only complaint (which the hotel can do... More

We went for a Bank Holiday weekend with our dog. I would say The Lake accepts pets but is not especially Dog Friendly. It is, as other reviewers have said, a beautiful place, in a lovely spot, in gorgeous surroundings. But be warned - if you are taking your dog you will be in a room in the annexe, where... More

A beautiful Hotel, with large, beautifully furnished rooms. Our bedroom at the top of the stairs was lovely, roomy and had garden and sea views. A comfortable night's sleep and a great breakfast the next morning, which set us up for the day's travel. Unfortunately our Host, whilst pleasant, didn't really make us feel especially welcome, which was a shame.... More
