I used Mount House as a base for a one week walking holiday. The accommodation is clean and comfortable and the proprieters are a friendly and helpful couple. The breakfast is first class. Good variety of excellent restaurants and pub food within easy walking distance.

The only good thing I can think of is the location of the b&b which is only10mins walk to the beach. Room is ok but the shower rom is small. Don't like the bedsheet as it's 100% nylon rather than cotton made. The lady owner Sally was very rude to me as we had some confusion with the breakfast time. Really bad customer service. Won't recommend to anyone!

Very cosy just right for a long weekend and welcoming hosts. Rooms adequate and clean although shower cubicle small but English breakfast more than makes up for it ! Would definately stay again for a short break.

Victorian house with very special design. Looks kind of strange at first sight, but clean and has its own charme. Very friendly and talkative host, good breakfast, parking ok. Not far to beach and about 15 min walk to good restaurants. room and ensuite bath very small.

Mount House was in a good location easy walikng distance from Shanklin Station the proprietors Graham and Sally were friendly and welcoming and willing to advise on bus routes or the best places to eat out in the evening .The bedroom was small but clean quiet and the bed very comfortable .The shower worked well and we enjoyed a good english homecooked breakfast !. We would recommend Mount House as value for money Thank you we went home refreshed . It was as described a small room

The full English breakfast was lovely! The staff happily provided us with more toast and let us pick and choose from the breakfast menu. They were friendly, helpful and made us feel very welcome in their home. Mount House is within good walking distance of Shanklin's high street and our room at the back of the B and B was quiet, with a view of the garden. Customer parking was available and our room was comfortable and clean. Great value for money! The decoration of the B and B was a little chintzy and our shower was rather small. However the chintzy decor is what you expect from a B and B so it adds to the English holiday charm. Perhaps the shower would have been a little better if it had had a glass door instead of a shower curtain. Please don't let this put you off Mount House. It is a clean and comfortable B and B that offers good value for money.
