Nice B&B

For the price it was a very nice B&B. The room was adequate but had all I required. Breakfast was very nice. The hotel is situated close to the town and only a short walk to the beach, although the walk is quite steep. The owners are very friendly and happy to help out with information and directions. If I ever need a B&B in Shanklin again I will certainly look for the Braemar again

Very friendly and welcoming. Owners went to a lot of trouble to help me with my ferry booking. Good quality food - I had poached egg on toast - very good though I would have appreciated the offer of accompaniments e.g. mushrooms. Very clean and comfortable room and bathroom. Unfortunately the water pressure was low in the shower. I would happily stay there again.
