Your holiday information...

Staying in the seaside town of Shanklin, we explore the island’s many highlights, from the yachting
town of Cowes, Osborne House, Queen Victoria’s beloved royal residence, where we have time to
browse the house and wander the beautiful gardens. The charming, thatched cottages and nostalgic
feel of Godshill, where we stroll through the delightful Model Village before unwinding in one of
the welcoming local tearooms. A visit to the lively town of Ryde, with its traditional seaside attractions
and classic pier, brings a touch of old-fashioned coastal fun, while Quarr Abbey offers a moment of
tranquillity amid peaceful grounds and monastic charm. We also enjoy a scenic journey to the world-famous
Needles Landmark Attraction, one of the Isle of Wight’s most iconic sights and a unique part of Britain.
