“Faultless - just keep coming back for more!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 September 2011

We made yet another visit to Chris and Lyn and the Miclaran (oh and not forgetting the lovely Reggie) and their care, enthusiasm, and sense of humour make this the very best of places to stay on the island. And then of course there are the yummy breakfasts with loads of choices.

The rooms are spotless,comfortable and most have breathtaking views - it is peaceful and quiet yet just a stroll away from all the activity. A short walk takes you onto the cliff path, where we discovered with Lyn's help, Blueberry's - a little cliff-top bistro which have wonderful tapas and a fabulous Rioja! Only seats a few people inside but a happy, relaxed and friendly place that's worth a visit.

We took my dad and friend - two octogenarians - and Chris and Lynn helped to make their stay perfect. They will take back some lovely memories.

Keep up the wonderful work you two - "we'll be back!!"

“Last minute booking, glad we did it!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 August 2011

Wonderful location, lovely and clean, bedrooms have ample space, great hosts and superb breakfasts.
What more can we say - hotel is situated on the coast road between Shanklin and Sandown, there are also some steep steps down to the promenade which provided a much flatter walk either way alongside the beach.
Very accomodating hosts, willing to help in any way.

Room Tip: Some rooms with sea view but we overlooked the street, which was not at all noisy.

“Clean, quiet and pleasant...”

We had a great stay at the Miclaran. The hotel (more of a B&B really!) was clean, quiet and pleasant at all times. Chris and Lynne were great hosts - thank you once again! The hotel is away from the general hustle and bustle of the main beachfront but within easy commuting distance of all attractions in the Isle of Wight. Great views!
