We had a wonderful stay at No. 29. Our host, Chris, was very welcoming and thoughtful. We loved the personal touches, from the delicious homemade lemon drizzle cake waiting for us on arrival to the cafetière coffee provided in our room. Our room was peaceful, quiet, and spotlessly clean. Breakfast was a highlight, perfectly cooked with a wide selection, including even more homemade cake and the best homemade bread I’ve ever tasted! Chris is a lovely, friendly host, and we highly recommend staying here.

A Hidden Gem

Wonderful guesthouse on a quiet road near to town and the beach. Chris is a great host, very friendly and knowledgeable, as well as a fabulous cook. The room was very comfortable with everything you need including a selection of teas & coffee with fresh milk in the fridge and even homemade cake. Can’t fault it. Five Stars.

Chrissy was a fantastic host. Our room was well equipped - comfortable bed, powerful shower and a fridge. Spotlessly clean and a very good breakfast offering too. (Added bonus of seeing a family of town foxes that visit 29's garden in the evening!)

First class hospitality at No 29!

A truly exceptional place to stay... can't fault it at all! Chris and Luke make you feel so welcome, the room was comfortable, clean and well-appointed and No29 is perfectly situated, a couple of minutes walk from the station and main bus routes, with easy walks to the town centre, the beach and Shanklin Old Village. Homemade cakes and a superb breakfast too! Very much hope to go back!

Excellent Weekend

We stayed in Room 1 which has a lovely sea view. Breakfast was exceptionally good with plenty of choices. The room has lots of extra features such as a real coffee and lemon drizzle cake. The bedding and towels were great quality. Christine was charming and very helpful with local information. The property is about 15 mins from the sea front and about 10 minutes to the old village which has lots of food choices.

Number29 - May 2024

A very clean and comfortable room and very enjoyable stay in what can be described as a home away from home. Chris and Luke looked after myself and my friends very well and ensured we were happy at all times. I had the smallest room which was still very comfortable with all the same amenities as the other rooms. My friends rooms were larger with one having a direct view across Shanklin to the sea. A wonderful breakfast was prepared for us every morning at times that suited us too. We will definitely be returning to Number29 for our next Isle of Wight trip. Thankyou for a lovely stay.

Great few days in Shanklin

Good location and very hospitable host. Close to the front and to Shanklin town. Good breakfast, don't usually have toast but the owner makes her own bread which was very nice. Only minor complaint is that we'd get woken up by a neighbour's dog barking each morning around 7, and couldn't shut the windows due to the summer heat.
