"There is something quintessentially English about the Priory Bay Hotel in Seaview, on the Isle of Wight.  From the traditional afternoon tea served in the Drawing Room to the red squirrels scampering across the croquet lawn and the statute to Churchill sitting on a bench looking over the landscaped grounds towards the Solent."
Financial Times July 2011
