This holiday has now departed but we're back on the Isle of Wight in November and December or browse all our breaks.
The Isle of Wight may be only 45 minutes from England’s south coast but a holiday here will make you feel that you might be a million miles away from home. Over half of this much-loved island has been designated as an ‘Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty’ and a drive along the coast provides a never-ending series of spectacular views. Inland you’ll find olde-worlde villages with pretty thatched cottages, where time seems to have almost stood still! It’s also one of the few places in Britain where the red squirrel thrives!
