    great location

    cozy vibe
    slow wifi
    breakfast not included

    I recently stayed at The Swiss Cottage in Shanklin and found the experience quite enjoyable. The Deluxe Twin Room was lovely, clean, and had all the essentials like a mini fridge and kettle, which made things convenient. The owners were super friendly and really helpful throughout my stay. The location is fantastic. just a 10-minute walk to the beach and shops made it easy to explore. I also appreciated the upstairs lounge with books and movies for relaxing. One downside was the breakfast not being included in the stay, and the wifi was a bit slow at times.

    cozy seating
    sun terrace
    snug shower

    I loved relaxing in the cozy seating area upstairs and making myself a cup of tea right in my lovely room. There’s a great sun terrace to soak up some rays and a leisure room filled with movies for those chill nights. Just a heads up, the shower was a bit snug, but it didn't ruin my stay at all! 😊

    would have extended the stay

    Had a 3-night stay in a Deluxe Twin Room. Nice clean room with a flat-screen TV, mini fridge, and tea/coffee facilities. En suite bathroom had free toiletries. Christine and Keith were super friendly. Location perfect for exploring – close to beach, shops, and the Old Village. Thoughtful extras, like a fan or extra blankets, were appreciated.

    great location but needs better soundproofing

    I enjoyed the convenience of having a spacious twin room that was exceptionally clean. The thoughtful amenities like the mini fridge and tea/coffee setup made my stay more comfortable.

    The room could benefit from improved sound insulation as noise from neighboring rooms was quite noticeable.
