Review 15:No real parking. I had to park up the street - not far away though.

Review 16:It was exactly was wanted. You don't feel like you're at a stop-by place where you just want to escape back to a more homely environment. It's homely.

Review 17:Nothing that I did not like. Woke up to Road traffic noise in the morning, but although my room was at the front this was not too bad

Review 18:Friendly reception Clean comfortable little room to stay in Very good breakfast with excellent coffee Company with others sailing for other teams

Review 19:breakfast peripherals not good - the fruit on offer was well past its best.

Review 20:bedroom (en suite) light and airy and very clean, off road parking adequate. The cooked part of the breakfast was excellent - cooked to order. A short walk to the town.

Review 21:There was nothing to dislike - an en-suite room with a bath would have been a bonus, but I hadn't expected it at the price which was very good value - I'll be back when I get a chance, preferably with family and a less rigorous schedule. Many thanks.

Review 53:Fantastic breakfast and lovely staff!

Review 54:Wi Fi not available on 2nd floor

Review 55:Well appointed bright and airy room well equipped good sized bathroom very modern and clean Warm welcome Helpful information given about locality/places to eat Excellent breakfast

Review 56:There are few if any problems with this b&b. however, if I was to be particularly picky then this time we couldn't get a room with ensuite and no robes we're provided to wear to get between the our room and the bathroom which was a floor down. But really a minor point.

Review 57:This is our 2nd time at the Caledon. It's a great location for Cowes which is our primary reason for choosing. However my favourite thing about this particular hotel is their breakfast, great choice and great local ingredients. We will certainly be back again when we come to visit the island next time.

Review 58:Not much to add, this is a very well run and appointed guest house within a very reasonable distance of the main parts of Cowes. Perhaps not quite so suitable for a person with walking difficulties. Overall very good!

Review 59:We were welcomed with a warm friendly smile at the door on arrival and this continued throughout our stay which was delightful. The decor is perfect and to a high quality and standard. Thank you Mark and Andrea.

Review 60:Everything was just great: - The location -easy 3 minute walk into Cowes The accommodation - exceptionally clean well maintained property The room - light and airy, warm, lovely decorated, comfortable bed, good en -suite with plenty of hot water, plenty of storage space. The breakfast - lovely dining room, lots of choice, well cooked, delicious. The Caledon is well run by a helpful friendly couple. We will return.

Review 61:There wasn't anything negative to say really!

Review 62:Great location for Cowes (west) just up the road from the town centre. Useful parking meant that we didn't use the car during our stay. Breakfast was lovely with wide choice and quality produce. Friendly owners who were not in the least intrusive.

Review 63:No en-suite but then even that wasn;t a problem as there was plenty of bathrooms that where clean and at no time did we have to wait for them.

Review 64:The decor the staff the food.

Review 65:The only tiny thing i would have preferred is a bigger quilt on the bed as we kept waking up everytime one of us moved - but i'm sure its just us being messy sleepers and used to a bigger one at home

Review 66:Absolutely loved the warm, welcoming atmostphere offered by Andrea & Mark, rooms were lovely and spacious, bathroom was perfect. The whole accomodation was everything you could want, breakfast was amazing too!

Review 67:At breakfast the menu has a map on the back showing where all the ingredients come from on the island. The bed was super comfortable. We got a friendly text after we booked online to coordinate our arrival time - which we then messed up - and we were then allowed a late check in. Very friendly, informal and comfy.

Review 68:The only problem was that the bed was uncomfortable but it didn't matter as the room was perfect and our stay was a very happy one!

Review 69:The rooms were clean and tidy, the owners were super friendly and accomodating. It felt like a home away from home. The breakfasts were incredible and we felt really relaxed there.

Review 70:the house was a little bit noisy

Review 71:the owners were very friendly and helpful, the breakfast was delicious and I like the idea that all the food comes from farmers from the island

Review 72:Beds FAR TOO HARD. Didn't sleep a wink :-(

Review 73:Good breakfasts. Tea, coffee and biscuits in room. Shower gel and shampoo in bathroom. Room cleaned and beds made every day.

Review 74:The shared bathroom could have been a little cleaner, there was a littlebit of mildew on the tiles. But seemed only a slight cosmetic thing.

Review 75:The breakfast was lovely and catered to my dietary needs. The staff weresuper friendly and welcoming. Even speaking to friends on the islandthey agreed with the comments and recommend the hotel too. It'sslightly out of the main square (a couple of minutes walk) which is agood thing as less noise in the evening. There was a lovely tv and dvdplayer in the room. We shared a bathroom, but it was next to our room sowe had no concerns sharing it especially as there was only two roomswhich shared this bathroom too so it was easily shareable.

Review 76:Andrea & Mark were very friendly and accomadating.The breakfast was cooked fresh to order, scrambled eggs and crispy bacon for me, my friend had a big bowl of fab porrigde with seeds and cranberries. It is also very convenient to walk to the town for the bars and restaurants. Loved and hope to return soon.

Review 77:As soon as I walked through the door, there was a feeling of light and space and cleanliness. I had a budget room with shared facilities, but the bathroom was down a couple of steps. My room was fresh, clean, modern and as a solo, mature age female traveller I felt totally safe at all times. Breakfast was included in my accommodation, and was plentiful, tasty, and with amazing coffee!

Review 78:Decor in bedroom

Review 79:Smallest shared shower room on a half landing. TV in the bedroom did not work. No fresh fruit or yogurt with the breakfast.
