Sandown & the Diamond Isle

5 & 7 day holidays

The diamond shaped Isle of Wight has a sparkle all of its own - and is one of the UK’s sunniest and warmest spots. The sea is never far away and the views are stunning. Sandown is the largest resort on the island, with miles of golden sandy beaches and colourful gardens, and the level seafront promenade is just yards from shops, cafés and restaurants.

 

Highlights

• Isle of Wight Coast and Country • The Needles • Alum Bay • Yarmouth • Ventnor • Godshill • Newport

 

Chines and Needles

Our full day begins with the drive to the island’s ‘chines’. Blackgang Chine offers superb views of the cliffs and rocks that have claimed numerous ships over the centuries. We continue along the coastal road to Alum Bay, famous for its multi-coloured cliff face and views of the Needles, before returning via the port of Yarmouth.

 

Gems of the Diamond Isle

Today we visit the 'gems' of this lovely island beginning at Ventnor, with views across the English Channel. Moving inland we come to the prettiest village on the island, Godshill, where you will have time to explore. In the afternoon we visit the island’s capital, Newport, where there is time to enjoy the antiques and craft shopping or just wander along the busy quayside.
