The Belmont - Shanklin, Isle of Wight

Motor Sport

IOW Car Club
Our events are focused on car control rather than outright speed – most courses will only ever require 1st gear and stay below 30mph, the usually last around 60seconds.. This makes our events very competitive with often the top 10 times spread over only 2/3 seconds, it also means you don’t need a purpose built car to be competitive, 90% of your time will be down to the skill of the driver rather than how fit for purpose the car is!

I stayed in Room 20 and it was lovely. The hotel is beautiful and I thoroughly enjoyed my stay (3 x nights). The breakfast was delicious with a good choice. Linda & Des were really welcoming and friendly. There were lots of lovely little touches around in the room and throughout the hotel (little shop with snacks, essentials you may have forgotten etc) There are lots of accommodation choices in the area, but I would thoroughly recommend The Belmont Hotel. An absolute gem!
