The Clifton

About

Stunning Cliff Top Location:

The Clifton’s privileged location on the clifftop offers an amazing sea view and makes it an ideal retreat for those in search for tranquillity. The stunning view of the bay can be enjoyed from the conservatory lounge and the lovely garden offering the perfect visual tonic to relax and revitalise, During the day you can relax in our lounge with stunning sea views, our comfy sofas let you take advantage of daily papers, selected quality magazines, and don’t forget there is free Wi-Fi too. Refreshments are available throughout the day at the Clifton, whether it’s a cappuccino, a glass of wine from our excellent, fairly priced wine list, a G+T from our gin menu, a local beer, perhaps some nibbles or a cream tea from our cafe menu.

The award-winning garden opens out to Keats Green and the lovely walk between Shanklin and Sandown (part of the Isle of Wight Coastal Path), with fantastic views across Sandown Bay. This also leads to the famous Shanklin Chine with a pathway down to the sandy beaches. Within easy reach by foot are the picturesque Shanklin Old Village with its thatched roofs, and the beautiful Rylstone Gardens.

Breath-taking sunrises and spectacular sunsets are available on the Isle of Wight. Our garden conservatory provides continuous front-row views every morning of the sunrise, weather permitting. With clear skies that lack the light pollution of many areas, the night sky is quite often wonderfully spectacular.
