Mrs Davies and I really like the Isle of Wight, we’ve been visiting since we first got married in 1989 and make the return journey as often as we can to mark our anniversary. We found the Birkdale in 2017 whilst doing a search for a place to stay with a difference, the four poster bed in the room we booked into grabbed our attention and we subsequently stayed and had a fabulous time. Time and tide turned and by the time we were looking at another stay we were all locked down, no travel, no IOW that year. This year however, all restrictions have been lifted, time to escape. We were more than pleased to find the four poster room in the Birkdale available and booked it without hesitation, ferry booked and away we were. The Birkdale has changed hands since 2017 but has managed to maintain the warm welcoming feeling that was present with the previous owners. Everything is spotlessly clean and well presented, tea, coffee & milk all replenished on request (fresh milk in a glass bottle! Real bonus) There’s a fridge in your room, two bottles of water in here along with the milk, again, glass bottles for the water so you refill them from the bowser in the entrance hall. Breakfast I here you ask, what about the breakfast? All very good, chosen the day before from a vast selection on the menu, freshly made fruit salad, home made natural yogurt followed by a full cooked or smoked salmon, the choices are yours. It’s worth mentioning the sausages here…. They are to be tasted to be believed, knock spots off supermarket sausages (I asked where they got them from so I could get some to take home) On the morning of our anniversary, at our table, a card and a bottle of Prosecco, this simply added to what was turning out to be a fabulous few days away. Thank you very much Colin & Lesley, already looking forward to our next visit Oh yes, a huge thank you for being my co-conspirators in getting an anniversary card and gift to Mrs Davies without her seeing it 😊
