“The owners were very welcoming and enjoyable to visit with, giving us good advice on places to go and public transportation to use. The room was very comfortable and well appointed. The breakfast each morning was delicious and gave us a nutritious jump start to our day. The location was an easy walk to Cowes High Street for an evening meal. I highly recommend this Guest House in Cowes, Isle of Wight”

“Loved it. Perfect location (walking distance to everything), excellent service, spotlessly clean and spacious rooms with everything you could need. Although this is a 'Guest House' the Caledon is much more like a boutique hotel - but at excellent value and well run.”
