About

Highlands offers a selection of 5 luxurious apartments in an imposing mock Georgian manor on the cliff tops of Shanklin. Taking its name from the grand Victorian house that once stood on the site and was built by the Lord Mayor of London as his holiday home, the old house was later used by the Bishop of Salisbury, became a hotel and then part of Upper Chine School before the current house was built. This was left derelict for many years before being converted and restored to form the apartments.

Each of the apartments has its own special features, with curved lounges for apartments 2 and 3, apartment 4’s roof top conservatory and balcony, which enjoy views across Sandown Bay, the very spacious long open plan living area in apartment 5 and duplex loft living in apartment 1. The apartments are found over four floors, garden to second floor, plus apartment 1 in the annex.

A summary can be seen below for each apartment:

Apt 1 (sleeps 4): Duplex loft style apartment, private entrance + direct garden access, king bedroom, bunk bedroom, Jack and Jill ensuite, loft kitchen, WC, living area with dining
Apt 2 (sleeps 5): Ground floor apartment, double bedroom with ensuite, twin bedroom, single bedroom, bathroom, kitchen/diner, lounge, direct garden access via French doors
Apt 3 (sleeps 4): First floor apartment, double bedroom with ensuite, twin bedroom, bathroom, kitchen/diner, lounge
Apt 4 (sleeps 3): Second floor loft style apartment, double bedroom, single bedroom, bathroom, kitchen/diner, rooftop conservatory lounge, private balcony
Apt 5 (sleeps 4): Garden floor apartment, private entrance + direct garden access, king bedroom with ensuite, twin bedroom, bathroom, open plan kitchen/diner/lounge

There are views galore around the property to enjoy with sea views of Sandown Bay and beyond for apartments 1 to 4, as well as views of Shanklin town and the countryside views of the Downs towards Ventnor. Apartment 5 enjoys garden views.

All 5 apartments have quality furnishings with oak furniture and floors, leather sofas, granite topped kitchens with oven/hob, fridge/freezer, microwave, washing machine and dishwasher (not apt 1), 32” LED TVs with Freesat, DVD players and radios. There is a communal garden laid to lawn.

Prices include linen and towels, wifi and all utilities. We welcome families and are able to offer travel cots with linen and high chairs for our guests. There is off road parking for 1 car per apartment and bicycle stands are also available, plus we are able to offer 15% off Red Funnel and Wightlink crossings. The apartment is non smoking and pets are not allowed.

Highlands is located right on the coastal path to Ventnor and Sandown, perfect for exploring the coast, and also a short walk from National Trust land and also Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Just down the road is the famous Old Village with its thatched cottages and main town, plus access to the beach and esplanade is just a few minutes away.

For guests with larger parties, we also have The Priory (sleeps 4) and Shanklin Manor (sleeps 4), which a just a short walk away and available to be booked with Highlands.
