Birthdays, anniversaries and family celebrations in Shanklin
Some occasions are better kept small. We host birthdays, anniversaries, baby showers and family reunions, and we host them with care. We plan each one with you so the day feels the way you want it to.
The occasions we host
Birthdays, anniversaries, baby showers and family reunions all fit well here. We also host gatherings to remember a loved one, and we handle those gently and quietly, with the space and the time a day like that needs. For an intimate wedding reception, see our weddings page.
Catering and afternoon tea for groups
Group catering is by arrangement. We can offer a cold or hot buffet, charcuterie and cheese boards, or a sit-down meal. Afternoon tea for groups is a popular way to celebrate, with finger sandwiches, pastries, cake, freshly baked scones with clotted cream and preserves, and a selection of speciality teas.
Securing your event
Smaller private events are secured with a £100 deposit. Full buyouts and bespoke events are planned personally with the team.
Take the whole hotel
For a bigger celebration, you can take the whole hotel for your group. We close the hotel to the public and the team is there just for you. Prices start from £3,995 per night in low season. See our exclusive hire page for what that involves.
