(23)

Our well equipped, modern holiday chalets are located on a peaceful site with views across Sandown Bay stretching across the English Channel to one side, and rolling countryside continuing to Culver Down on the other side. The open green areas are ideal for relaxation and for children to play. Sandown Holiday Centre, is an ideal holiday base, situated on the historic site of Yaverland Battery, con

structed in 1863 under the direction of the then Prime Minister , Lord Palmerston. Sandown beach is one of the Isle of Wight's finest, and most recognised beaches with miles of soft, golden sands crowned by Sandown's pleasure pier. Popular with tourists and surfers, Sandown is a traditional bucket and spade holiday beach with all you'd expect from an English family beach. Sandown's esplanade has traditional seaside cafés, souvenir and beach shops, whilst the pier has amusements galore, including a crazy golf course. The beach has several outlets to hire deckchairs, sun loungers and windbreaks, and beach huts. Patrolled by lifeguards in the peak season, there are also pedalos, kayaks and banana boats for fun on the water. Attractions include Sandown Tiger Zoo, Dinosaur Isle, tennis courts, putting green, and leisure complex . The Isle of Wight is situated approximately 3 miles off the English southern coastline. It is known for its breathtaking scenery with much of the Island being designated as as Area of Outstanding Beauty. The Island first became popular as a holiday destination during Victorian Times and it's unique charm attracts 2.5 million visitors each year. It is quite easy to appreciate why the Island attracts so many with its scenic coastline, award winning golden beaches, charming little villages and temperate climate - in fact the Island can boast more hours of sunshine than most other destinations in Britain. For the more energetic, the Island offers over 500 miles of maintained footpaths which makes it ideal for walkers and cyclists alike. The Island offers a comprehensive range of shops and amenities including many 'High Street' names together with popular cafés, bars and restaurants. All in all the island is a wonderful holiday destination, catering for all ages and with activities for all interests.

Huge Congratulations to RT Café Grill & Thompson's on winning Best New Restaurant in the British Restaurant Awards! Aren’t we lucky to have this on the Isle of Wight!😀

To everyone that voted for us, my dream team at and of course, my guests.

I was over the moon to be nominated for “Best New Restaurant” and along with some of the team we checked into the awards evening after a very nice lunch!
Up against stiff competition, I could not believe it when my new café grill by the sea in Ryde, Isle of Wight gets called out - WE WON!!!!

The pleasure I got from accepting the award on behalf of everyone there on the night, and on the Island, was and still is…..immense.

Big love, Robert ❤️

Interesting!😀

"Move over Cornwall, the Isle of Wight is officially the hottest destination for a summer holiday to travel to sans-passport. And no, we're not just talking about heading to the annual festival. Located off the south coast of England, it's surprisingly easy to reach from the mainland via a train journey (two hours from London to Portsmouth) and a 45-minute ferry ride.🏝☀️

"UK staycations have really peaked in the past few years. Just because you can go abroad doesn't mean you have to. Especially when you take into account the numerous benefits of holidaying closer to home, from reducing your carbon footprint to bringing along furry friends.🐶

"With its own micro-climate, sandy beaches and breathtaking coastal views paired with quintessentially picturesque British towns, you get a little bit of everything. And while there's plenty to keep you busy for a week's sojourn, a weekend visit is also a realistic option as it takes only an hour to drive from one end of the Island to the other."🤩

We visited the newly renovated Appley Tower this week, now open to the public. It’s free admission too.

Take the outside steps to the 1st floor which has display boards with loads of interesting info and pictures about the history of the tower. The volunteer steward was great, giving us fascinating info, and even pointed out the location across the Solent where the Mary Rose sank and was raised.

On the ground floor, there will be various art or craft displays - on our visit a lady was selling her products made from re-purposed ‘skirts’, no longer needed by the hovercrafts that regularly cross in front of the tower.

You will usually be able to visit the very top floor of the tower, although we couldn’t on our visit as there was a private function up there - the views from the top will be amazing - something to look forward to another day.

For more about Appley Tower, or to book the top for afternoon tea, visit Monkton Arts!

Fort Victoria Country Park is a favourite of our family - children and adults alike!

“These fascinating, guided sessions cost just £2 per person or £5 for a family and are a great way to explore the beach at the West Wight country park, near Yarmouth.

Going on a fossil hunt
Hunt for fossils of animals that lived here millions of years ago, including turtles, crocodiles and sharks, before exploring the rocky beach, home to all sorts of sea creatures including crabs, fish and anemones.

Sessions are held throughout the summer holidays though days and times vary due to the tides.

Timings
The next sessions are being held on:

Wednesday, 31 July at 1.30pm.
Thursday, 1 August at 2pm.
Friday, 2 August at 2.30pm.
For future dates and times, follow Fort Victoria Country Park on Facebook.

Sessions last around an hour to an hour-and-a-half and there’s no need to book, just turn up (numbers allowing). Meet outside the ranger’s office.”

Huge turnout for today's rockpooling and fossil hunting session with the ranger, keep an eye on our page for future dates and times through the summer..
