About the hotel

Oaklands House is long established with a relaxed atmosphere, heated swimming pool, licensed bar, free Wi-Fi, air conditioned bedrooms and parking. Children over 12 years old welcome.

From our location on the Isle of Wight it's just a short (uphill) walk to Brading Downs, making Oaklands ideal for both walkers and cyclists

The heated swimming pool (June to September) is open most days from 14:00 until dusk.

The friendly village pub, The Yarbridge Inn, is just across the road. Walk just a few more metres for fishing on the River Yar.

Oaklands was featured in the April 2006 Sunday Mirror article 'The Best of British at Bargain Prices'. Oaklands has again been awarded 5 stars by IW Council for food hygiene standards and has 'Gold' status from Green Island Tourism

A light buffet-style breakfast is included (see below). Minimum booking is for 2 nights. Rare red squirrels come to the garden to feed - so no pets allowed.

Green Tourism:
Caring for the environment is important to us. We are very pleased to have been given a Gold award by Green Island Tourism (2007/2008).

Computer facilities:
Should you have forgotten your laptop, one is available for guests’ use. This computer is available free of charge and is in the bar lounge.

Guest privacy:
We respect our guests’ privacy and will only enter guest rooms on request (or if an emergency occurs).

Non-residents:
Only registered guests are allowed in the bedroom area. Friends of hotel guests may be entertained in the bar. They cannot use the swimming pool.

Parking:
Providing good sense is used, our car park can accommodate approximately 10 cars. However, if the car park is full, alternative free off-road parking is available nearby.

Website photographs:
