Treat yourself to a break away to the Isle of Wight for a fun weekend of sightseeing and entertainment by the bucket (and spade) load! With dramatic white cliffs, pretty resorts and tranquil sand dunes aplenty, the isle received Queen Victoria's nod of approval in the 19th century and still proves to be one of the UK's favourite seaside destinations today. There's also a fabulous drinks offer at our hotel and excursions to Newport and Ryde to enjoy.
