Isle of Wight Scenic & Steam Late Summer Special

Enjoy a fabulous, great value weekend break on one of the UK’s most popular holiday islands. The Isle of Wight may be just five miles off the mainland, but it’s a different world. Nowhere in the country can match it for geographical variety in its 23 mile long and 13 mile wide, stretch of land. You will find quiet fishing harbours and quaint towns and villages, along with stretches of golden sand and unspoilt, award-winning beaches. More than half the Isle of Wight is designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and with spectacular scenery and a rich royal heritage, the island has plenty to offer all year round. Our charming seaside town base of Sandown, nestled on the island’s eastern coast, beckons with its captivating blend of natural beauty, history and fun. Whether you’re seeking a tranquil beach retreat, an adventurous exploration of the island’s treasures, or a journey through its rich history, this break offers a short yet memorable visit.

We’ll whisk you away and over the water on the short crossing from the mainland to then arrive at your hotel in Sandown. The Burlington Hotel is in a central seaside location set back just 2 minutes walk from the beach and town centre.

Whilst on the Isle of Wight, you can relax and simply enjoy time in Sandown at your own pace, or if you wish to explore further, join us on our included excursions, from the charming, popular town of Newport to the seaside town of Ryde plus a wonderful journey on the Isle of Wight Steam Railway on their special gala weekend. Not forgetting time for you enjoy the historic resort of Sandown at your own pace.

An ideal choice for:

* Anyone looking for a chance to explore the best of the Isle of Wight at a great price
* Traditional seaside lovers looking for a relaxing weekend away
* Lovers of picture-perfect settings and scenery

Return Collections

The Company has access to most UK airports flight arrivals information and relies heavily on the live updates being provided by the major Airline Companies.
