Holmwood Guesthouse Review

This charming 1934 guesthouse is set in lovely cottage gardens, just a short walk from the beach and the center of Cowes. You can choose between three rooms, all with private bathrooms, in the main house, two stylish cottages built alongside, or a three-bedroom budget studio apartment, each with their own courtyard garden. Guesthouse rooms have a slightly old-fashioned feel (one is called the Jane Austen Room), but the cottages are modern -- one's theme is seaside or nautical, the other Asian. The studio has one double and two single bedrooms and is self-catering. Breakfasts are hearty, and you can stay in for dinner if you choose. The guest lounge has a fireplace.

Facilities:
Restaurant; bar; bikes; room service

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
