Emergency Road Closure – Belgrave Road Landslip

Please be advised that due to a recent landslip on Belgrave Road (2025), a temporary one-way traffic system is now in place.

Access to the hotel is available by foot, bicycle or car via the PO38 1JJ postcode, passing The Royal Hotel.

At this time, there is no estimated date for when the debris will be cleared. Please continue to follow these instructions until further notice or until this message is officially removed.

Accessibility:
We are not suitable for those with walking difficulties. Due to our cliffside location, there are multiple flights of stairs and no ground floor. Unfortunately, we do not have a lift or wheelchair access.

Pets:
We welcome dogs at our hotel for a non-refundable cleaning fee of £30 per room, per stay, payable at check-in. Assistance Dogs are exempt from this charge with certification provided.

We are a no parking accommodation, but there are public and residential parking options nearby on Belgrave Road and Park Avenue. The Grove Car Park (2 Marlborough Rd, Ventnor, Isle of Wight PO38 1TE) is a short walk away and offers parking payable by coins, phone, or card.

Beach Access:
While we’re not directly on the beach, our location offers private steps from the terrace that lead down to the beach.
