Awesome place to stay in Bembridge, Natalie was especially welcoming and made the whole stay really fantastic all round. The view from the terrace is stunning and the food is so so good. A real BnB gem for sure, and I hope to be back soon.

A Little Gem

This hotel is a gem nestling above the beach st Bembridg with great views out to sea. It is in a great location for coastal walks, a 10 walk to the bus towards Newport and Ryde. It is just 15 to 20 minute walk from the village. Our room, Culver, was spacious and comfortable. The shower ensuite was particularly good, with a gentle monsoon shower at perfect temperature. We ate there too the first night and the food was excellent. Breakfast was particularly good. It is the first hotel I've stayed in that offers smashed avocado with your choice of eggs for breakfast. And with all this, the staff were very friendly and helpful. I woukd recommend the Crab & Lobster whole heartedly.

From the moment we arrived was a perfect fit, originally staying one night & booked another - great location and pub interior makes such a difference as soon as you walk in as exterior very traditional.

Fantastic stay, even if it was only one night, I got there a little late, but the host opened the kitchen back for me. The beer was good as so was the open fire and views, room was great again with a sea view!! And comfortable compliment with a great breakfast in the morning, truly this place is a little gem

The Crab & Lobster week stay

I was part of a group of 3 couples who came for a week's holiday. We ate every night at the pub and really enjoyed the food and service. One of the rooms had a problem with their shower, but the manager got a plumber there very quickly. All of us would stay here again.

The view was stunning from the terrace area however you could see the sea from our room but it was a limited view and that was the only negative I could find . What a stunning part of the Island ,such friendly and caring staff that took a genuine interest in your holiday . Loved it and would stay there again in a heart beat. Picturesque setting.
