“Isle of Wight was a bit of an unknown to us. But lots of interest, good scenery, not too many steep bits; even with lockdown / Covid remnants.”Mrs Crompton, UK
“Everything worked seamlessly for us, all the hotels, transfers were brilliant. Each hotel had its own charms and the island was really magical. We were especially pleased with the final booking at the Lakeside. Such a beautiful location and the spa was much needed after 5 days of walking. The itinerary worked really well, and as I mentioned above, we had no problems at all with any of the bookings made for us. The taxi company around Freshwater Bay were especially helpful. Well organised, beautiful scenery. I would also encourage people to stop off at Quarr Abbey outside of Ryde. It was a complete delight and totally unexpected, a really lovely place.”Mrs Brain, UK
