LOCATION
Located on Queens Road, The Clifton is perfectly positioned on the clifftop, providing spectacular sea views across Small Hope Beach and Sandown Bay.
Shanklin, a town to the southeast of the Island, is one of the main holiday destinations on the Island. There are extensive sandy beaches nearby with a lovely coastal walk from Shanklin to the town of Sandown and beyond.
The main town of Shanklin is just a short walk from the hotel, comprising a range of amenities from small boutique stores, larger retailers, restaurants, cafes, salons and much more.
DESCRIPTION
Built in 1860, The Clifton retains much of the original features you would expect from a Victorian establishment, whilst being tastefully upgraded and modernised over the years. There are 14 en-suite bedrooms with a separate well-appointed 4-bedroom owners’ bungalow, which offers potential to be separately let as self-catering accommodation, increasing the potential turnover.
The current owners have occupied the property for around 15 years and are selling due to retirement.
The hotel is licensed and trades from March through to October on a bed & breakfast basis. They also open to the public throughout the day, serving café style food, freshly baked goods and a range of beverages.
Both the flat and pitched roof were replaced in 2018 with a 20-year guarantee. The external fire escape was also recently replaced in 2018.
