Gareth and Sarah James welcome you to Old Shanklin Guest House!
Opened in 2011 Old Shanklin is modern and comfortable and right in the heart of Shanklin Old Village, in a quiet side road, 5 minutes walk to the beautiful beach and coastal walks and seconds from the traditional tea rooms, pubs and great selection of restaurants on offer.
We have five en suite rooms all supplied with Duck Island toiletries. We have sourced local artwork for you to enjoy and local produce for you to eat! The guest lounge is available morning to evening, whether it’s to relax with the paper after a tasty breakfast, which changes on a daily basis or to enjoy a well deserved slice of homemade afternoon bake or an evening game of IOW monopoly. Or you could lay around in the secluded south facing garden on the day bed. There is free parking for four of our five rooms (see facilities) and free wi fi.
For that Special Occasion we can arrange flowers and chocolates for your room. See Private Bookings & Special Offers page.
Old Shanklin Guest House was formerly the Woodthorpe Hotel until the 1990s. Gareth and Sarah took over the house in 2011 and look forward to many years serving breakfast and cakes to our welcome guests!
The Isle of Wight offers something for everyone and whatever your reason for staying with us we hope to make your stay a relaxing one.
Dinner, bed and breakfast is available to groups occupying all the rooms. See Specials Offers & Private Bookings page for sample menus.

We have a cat who is rarely seen. He tends to do a lot of sleeping! Hooper was named after Richard Dreyfuss' character in Jaws. We can't really remember why. He is bit goofy though!
