海文霍爾飯店

A very last minute stay arranged to accommodate two major curved balls that greatly affected my plans for visiting the IoW. It had not on my radar originally as it is ‘well outside what I planned to spend’. For some guests staying here will just be ‘chump change’. Wearing a pair of investment boots and coat over supermarket clothing I walked up the hill, pulling my little suitcase for 15 mins, to find a beautiful, imposing locked gate. Happily, a tradesman arrived and I was cordially greeted by David. Haven Hall is a labour of love and expression of a pair of keen intellects who have strived to create a beautiful environment for all visitors that cross the threshold. Your washstand is bespoke - designed, cut to precise measurements and aesthetically pleasing to the eye. The eggs for breakfast are laid that morning by the hens and taken by David to the kitchen. The brass work has ‘ been rescued’ and reworked to gleam under the lamplight. The gardens are carefully designed to provide beautiful vistas without compromising guest privacy. As hosts, David with Arielle are cordial and clearly seek to facilitate a restful, enjoyable stay with excellent advice about IoW sights and places to eat to accommodate all pockets. It is bed and breakfast only but if you stayed for a month you could have a different breakfast each day as the choice is so vast! Whatever, the reason for your visit just be armed with good manners, a respect for property and person for then you will leave feeling totally refreshed and pampered!!!
