This is a lovely guesthouse, cleanliness is outstanding. A huge selection of breakfast which was excellent quality. Hosts & staff are warm & friendly, nothing is too much trouble. Excellent location with private parking. Great value, we would highly recommend.

I have been visiting the Island since 1967. The birkdale is the best place I have ever stayed at. Lesley and Colin make you so welcome and you have everything you need in your room. Nothing is too much trouble for your stay. The breakfast is the best I have ever had while on holiday, they check if you require any more tea toast or anything else.The orange is placed on the table in a caraffe and fresh milk is on the table (fresh milk in your room is in the fridge and bottled water)The next time we go to the Island we will be calling the Birkdale. The Birkdale is spotlessly clean and its welcome is lovely. When you arrived a cuppa welcomes you.Lesley makes biscuits that are in your room and they are LOVELY.

The fighting Cocks at Hale Common has lovely food but the portions are very big. The New Inn Shanklin is very nice as well. A visit to Havenstreet is a must for steam trains if you like them. I do like to go to Cowes as well. A ride out to Freshwater along the military road is lovely (not a lot to do there) but the views are lovely.

We had a very warm welcome and were looked after very well during our stay. Colin and Lesley are so friendly and helpful. The Birkdale is an excellent standard throughout - very comfortable bed, fabulous thick towels, lovely, high quality décor, fantastic breakfasts, and everything very clean. Without a doubt, one of the best places we have ever stayed.

We particularly enjoyed: Osbourne House, Carisbrooke Castle, Quarr Abbey, IOW steam railway, Bembridge Lifeboat station, The Needles (National Trust -the old and new Battery) and for walks - our favourite was to the Wishing Seat and Devil's Chimney.
