After our tour to The Shanklin Hotel on The Isle of Wight sold out by March last year, we are including it again for all those who missed out. Come with us and see for yourself why this hotel is so popular.
We will enjoy an excursion to The Needles, an iconic landmark in Alum Bay, home to the famous coloured sands the Island is known for. We then continue on to Cowes, famed for it’s regatta. We finish with a visit to The Donkey Sanctuary, home to over 100 donkeys, mules and Shetland ponies. The café is in a beautiful, converted barn overlooking the paddock where you can enjoy a tea and cake.
On ‘Christmas Day’ you will have a free day in Shanklin to explore the old town with it’s thatched cottages and quaint Christmas Shop, or walk along the front to Sandown, stopping for a coffee on the way at one of the beachfront huts. You will have a free lunch at the hotel and a visit from Father Christmas.
Our final excursion is to Quarr Abbey, situated in an area of outstanding natural beauty and home to Benedictine monks. Wander round the gardens and enjoy a coffee in the tea-rooms, or light a candle in the Abbey at this time of Remem brance. We continue on to Ryde, the largest town on The Isle of Wight, with a rich history, a lively seafront and plenty of shops. Bembridge was voted the National village of the year in 2019 due to its windmill, picturesque harbour and bustling village centre, and we will include a visit during our stay.
