The Woodvale

Lovely place to stay, food amazing room great clean /modern/ peaceful.

Excellent place and great food . Would stay again

We had a great 3 night B&B at The Woodvale in Gurnard. The pub has great views over the Solent and is only a minute from the beach at Gurnard. Accommodation is clean and thoughtfully presented. Even the tea boat had decaf tea and coffee. Food and drink is very good indeed and the breakfast is superb. Call Nathan the Manager directly to get the best rate.

I visited The Woodvale whilst over on the island on a family weekend away. We went for a meal on the Sunday lunchtime on our way home. I ordered the roast beef Sunday dinner and can hands down say it was the best roast dinner I have ever had. Generous portion sizes and great value for money. I had to request for the beef to be well done as I am currently 7 months pregnant and it was cooked to perfection. I understand that currently there is no permanent head chef in the kitchen and one of the regular kitchen staff has stepped up in place and you would never have known. In my opinion you’ve already got the perfect kitchen team as I couldn’t fault the food! The food was so delicious, crispy but fluffy roasties, rich gravy, a great selection of veg, a generous portion of perfectly cooked meat (I had beef and others on the table had lamb), perfectly seasoned stuffing and a large homemade Yorkshire pudding to suck up all the juices. For dessert I chose the toffee apple pie, and when it arrived I was AMAZED by the size, it was huge! It was delicious and the vanilla custard just topped it off.. safe to say, I will definitely be heading back to The Woodvale on my next visit over to the Isle of Wight!

Had breakfast with a large family group and the food was really good , the staff very friendly and the location is superb with fantastic views across the Solent. We had a lovely table in a more private setting as we were a large group so overall a great experience!

I stay in hotels all over the UK weekly for our business and this hotel and pub was fantastic. I don't drink alcohol but I had a great time. The hotel room was clean, comfortable, had everything needed and the views were brilliant. But the a**osphere in the pub was superb. I had a quality burger and took part in the quiz night which was excellent. They couldn't have done more to make me feel welcome and I would recommend it to anyone who has the chance to go. 😀

Staff were very very accommodating, particularly Molly who went out of her way to make our stay very enjoyable.

Great food menu for lunch and dinner, great views and easy no cost parking. Breakfast arrangements in the week could be better - only one on when we were there , so a long wait. Staff are friendly and they make a good a**osphere in the pub.

A year ago I posted a terrible review on the back of a terrible meal following a change in ownership. I'm so pleased to see the restaurant is back on track... well done! They seem to have embraced hearty home made grub again and dropped the bookers cheapest cuts and microwave/fryer meals. The view is to die for and I'm proud of them.
