Gotten Manor can be found nestling beneath St Catherine's Down and below the Hoy Monument and the Pepper Pot (which was built in C14th by former manor resident Walter de Godyton as a penance for receiving smuggled goods!)

Quotes from guests . . .
"We love everything but most of all the simplicity, log fire, fresh daffodils and snowdrops, white bedding, fluffy robes and reading about Gotten manor in the book beside the fire. Fellow guests don't go out to eat but enjoy the simple pleasures of cheese, chutney, olives and salami with good wine from the deli in Ventnor; beside the roaring log fire. "
