The Clifftop Collection

Luccombe Manor is part of Luccombe Hotels

The Clifftop Collection – two beautiful clifftop hotels sharing one extraordinary setting above the sea, and the Island’s most awarded home for dog-friendly breaks.

Victorian in spirit, unhurried in pace, and genuinely personal in welcome – this is the kind of place where sea views greet you at breakfast, dogs are treated as proper guests, and the staff remember your name. Whether you’re here to walk the coastal paths, explore the island, or simply slow down and breathe – the Manor offers the comfort, space and quiet hospitality to make it feel exactly right.

At the Manor, the pace is calmer and the welcome unmistakably personal – and that welcome extends just as warmly to your dog. This is a relaxed clifftop base for walkers, coastal explorers, and guests travelling with dogs who don’t want to compromise on comfort or hospitality.

Why Us

What Makes Us So Special?

Because it’s not just about the clifftop views (though they are breathtaking — and yes, they really will stop you in your tracks). It’s about how you and your dog feel the moment you walk through the door.

Dogs are never an add-on here. They’re treated as proper guests – with dedicated facilities, nearby walks and doggy treats, the reason we’ve won more dog-friendly awards than any other hotel on the Island.

Rooms are thoughtfully designed with space to settle in (paws included), many with sea views and easy garden access.

Slip into the outdoor pool, soak in the clifftop hot tub, or ease away the day in the outdoor spa pool — all set against a backdrop of landscaped gardens and open sea. Feeling competitive? Challenge someone to pool or table tennis in the games room. Or simply find a quiet corner of the clifftop gardens and let the views do the rest.

“Superb hotel with great staff”

We always stay at Luccombe Manor when we travel to the island and as always it was fantastic. The rooms are really well appointed and clean with really comfortable beds, and the views from the sea facing rooms are spectacular particularly the sun rise. The staff are really welcoming and happy to help you if needed. The breakfast is also excellent with lots of choices. The gentleman who works on an evening in the bar is really friendly and helpful. We will definitely be returning in the near future

Tripadvisor Review Jan 2025

“Amazing”

This was the second stay in as many months! Love the friendly staff, amazing service, wonderful food and the way that the doggy’s are treated as good as their humans. Rooms were well appointed and the beds so comfortable. Everything you’d want from a beautiful setting to gardens for running around in (Minnie, not me). Would highly recommend and looking forward to our next trip in June! Can’t wait. X.
