Away from the beach, the main town offers a multitude of shops, cafés, bars, and restaurants. The Old Village is renowned for its pretty thatched cottages, cosy tea rooms, pubs, restaurants and craft shops. The seaside town of Shanklin is well served by public transport around the island with regular buses and the railway ‘Island Line’ to Ryde and Sandown.
Outdoor pursuits on the island include horse riding, fishing, cycling, paragliding, golf and water sports. There are numerous attractions across the island to discover for all ages such as The Needles, with its chairlift, amusement park, boat rides, lighthouse and coloured sands of Alum Bay. Blackgang Chine, Dinosaur Isle, the Isle of Wight Steam Railway, Ventnor Botanical Gardens, Tapnell Farm Park and Carisbrooke Castle are other attractions. Or why not pay a visit to Queen Victoria’s favourite holiday residence, Osborne House, and its gardens? The sailing towns of Yarmouth and Cowes also make for a great day out. Whatever you decide, the Isle of Wight has plenty to offer.

Good location with added bonus of parking. Lovely property very spacious. Met all our requirements. Right near to a bus stop which is very handy for seeing the island. Road is a little noisy. Would recommend.

Everything in the property was very good, well equipped and clean, the welcome pack was much appreciated, and had its own parking space. We had to use the car, or a bus to get into centre of Shanklin as not so fit now but anyone younger, fitter could easily walk in and around. Loved the island and hope to return.
