Property details

Relax at a restored seaside hotel positioned directly on the shoreline of Freshwater Bay, with seasonal coastal dining and sweeping ocean views
  • Maritime charm: Standing proudly on the edge of Freshwater Bay, The Albion captures the essence of refined coastal living. Following an extensive, thoughtful restoration, the historic building seamlessly weaves its Victorian roots with contemporary boutique comfort. Calming maritime hues fill the public spaces, where expansive windows invite views of the crashing waves and salt-tinged sea air into every corner.

  • Shoreline dining: The hotel's seaside restaurant, The Rock, offers seasonal dining paired with uninterrupted views over the bay. Taking full advantage of local Island produce, the head chef crafts crisp menus celebrating regional ingredients and fresh seafood. Settle into the coastal setting for daily breakfasts, afternoon tea treats, or relaxed dinners as the sun sets over the ocean.

  • Coastal wellness: Beyond restful guestrooms with modern air conditioning, the property encourages a slower pace of life right by the water. Unwind in the welcoming public bar or the peaceful residents' lounge, or join a weekly yoga class held right by the sea. Step straight outside the hotel front door to experience refreshing coastal walks along the rugged cliffs. 

How to get there 

The hotel is located in Freshwater Bay on the Isle of Wight. From Yarmouth Ferry Terminal, it is roughly a ten-minute drive or a 20-minute bus journey to the hotel. From Fishbourne or Cowes ferry terminals, expect a drive of around 40 to 45 minutes. We’d recommend hiring a car in order to get the most out of the beautiful area.
