Ryde Castle Hotel, Ryde, Isle of Wight

The Ryde Castle Hotel Ryde Isle of Wight, was originally a large and spacious Victorian family home, overlooking Ryde Esplanade and Harbour on the Isle of Wight with stunning views across the Solent. This majestic building which was to become the Ryde Castle Hotel is claimed to have been commissioned by Henry VIII to defend the Spithead, Southampton Water and the Solent from the invasion by the Spanish Armada during his daughter's reign.
