Visiting Isle of Wight
The Isle of Wight is a small island and quaint British holiday destination situated just a few kilometres off England’s south coast. Since the 19th century, people have been spending their summers soaking up its rugged coastal scenery, playing on its sandy beaches, and having fun in its seaside resort towns. It was so popular that even Queen Victoria wanted a slice of the action and had her very own Italian Renaissance palace, Osborne House, built as her very own summer residence here on the island. Today, much of the island’s Victorian influence remains from its architecture to its seaside resorts. However, its kitsch boutiques, chic restaurants, and cool bars give it a marvellous modern touch.
