Immaculately (and expensively) decorated large county house set in the corner of a park. Our room "Elm" is one of the smaller ones although perfectly adequate. The bathroom is very compact and has a shower. It overlooks the garden at the rear. Breakfast was very nice and efficiently served from 830 to 930. Evening meals were good are a fixed... more

We stayed for 4 nights on a DB&B basis and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Carole and Mike together with the whole team just made it home from home and considering we had never visited the IOW their travelling tips were as good as any travel agent. Mike's kitchen was superb so much so that after a memorable dinner it was... more

My wife and I have stayed at Rylstone Manor on approx 15 occasions over the past dozen years under both the previous and current owners and have yet to find anything to fault the place. The location in the gardens makes it seem like you are in a rural area rather than a couple of minutes from the centre of... more

My husband treated me to Rhylstone Manor to celebrate my 55th. I had always wanted to stay there. We stayed in the room called Ash overlooking the front of the house and beautiful gardens. It was quite magical. Most evenings we enjoyed being entertained by a band in the gardens. We also greatly appreciated Angie's great ability in making teddy... more

If you are looking for a small family run hotel where nothing is too much trouble, try staying here where Carole and Michael will spoil you and Angie the morning waitress will cheer you up with her sunny outlook on life. Visit Osborne House, Ventnor, Yarmouth and Cowes. This is a beautiful unspoilt island apart from the 'amusements' at the... more

I wanted somewhere peaceful and reminiscent of the old Isle of Wight that lives now only in my memories. I found all this and more at Rylstone Manor. The hotel was charming, the service friendly and... more

We booked the hotel for the weekend as a surprise for my parents for their Golden Wedding Anniversary. Their honeymoon was is Shalklin and as soon as we saw Rylstone Manor we knew they would love it. Right from the start Carole & Mike were so helpful, they let us in to have a look around, although we could't see... more

Stayed at The Rylstone Manor to celebrate our wedding anniversary. What a delightful hotel. The location is great, a walk through the park to the edge of the cliff, down the steps and onto the beach takes you to Shanklin Seafront. Although it was raining quite hard, it did not matter a bit. A nice romantic escape. The room was... more

Both Mike and Carol were accommodating hosts. The hotel in General is to a high standard set in a superb location with a five minute walk to Shanklin town. I would highly recommend the half board option as the evening meal was excellant value and was complimented with a good selection of quality wines at affordable prices. We simply could... more
