The Isle of Wight - the perfect place for a family holiday or short break

The Isle of Wight is a magical combination of different landscapes and places of interest. Island View Holidays offer self-catering holiday accommodation across the Isle of Wight, with four holiday parks only minutes from sandy beaches and spectacular coastline, and one at the centre of the Island’s lush rolling countryside.

The Isle of Wight is only 26 miles in length so you’re never more than a short journey away from the Island’s many family attractions and sites of historical interest. The Island is well-served by Southern Vectis buses, with regular services taking in all the major towns, villages and attractions that the Island has to offer, and there are regular IslandLine trains run from Ryde Pier to Shanklin, stopping at Brading, Lake and Sandown on the way.
