I found this place last minute and although Paul had family commitments he went out of his way and above and beyond to accommodate us! What a gem it is, it is just before the roundabout to robin hill. It was just want we were looking for. Very private and secluded. The lodge was very new and decorated and layout very thoughtfully to a high standard. We especially appreciated the good showers and lovely kitchen. Obviously what set it apart is the hot tub and very large decking area complete with new bbq, fire pit and very lovely loungers. All in all an outstanding stay in a great location. We visited Compton bay, Caris Brooke castle and Amazon world. We can’t wait to come again and thanks again for the welcome food and wine!
A Lodge With a Family Connection
Our business begins with Killymoon Lodge, whose name reflects a connection with the Stewart family history through Killymoon Castle in Cookstown, Northern Ireland. Here on the Isle of Wight, the lodge combines that personal connection with a countryside setting and space for couples or small groups of adults.
