The Isle of Wight’s hotels and B&B’s are set firmly among the best in the country – and Europe – according to a recent poll by leading online holiday company TripAdvisor.
Shanklin leads the way, with all of the businesses featured in the Traveller’s Choice Best of the Best Awards for the UK and Channel Islands, based in the picturesque seaside town.
The Rowborough Hotel features as 2nd best value hotel in the UK, 7th best small hotel in the UK and ranks an incredible 11th as best value hotel in Europe.
Michelle Tarrant and Caroline Reze are the owners of the Rowborough Hotel. Michelle is overjoyed:
“We are delighted to receive the Best of the Best Travellers Choice awards having already been fortunate to win 3 in 2017, 2018 and 2019”.
