Itinerary

Day 1 Morning departure for the journey to the island and onto Shanklin for a two night stay.

Day 2 Today you will travel by way of Ventnor and along the coastal Military Road for a short break at the Isle of Wight Pearl before travelling to the pretty chocolate box village of Godshill. You will then travel to Osborne House to arrive approx. 13.30 hours. Take a trip back in time and delight in a celebration of a Victorian Christmas. Surround yourself with good cheer as the sound of music and smell of roasting chestnuts fill the air. Be captivated by Victorian toy makers, have a go at traditional games and marvel at daring jesters and their breath-taking fire shows. Warm up with a tipple from the Christmas courtyard and choose a gift from the stallholders and maybe sing a carol or two. After dark see the magical festive lights in the grounds whilst sipping a glass of mulled wine.

Day 3 After breakfast, enjoy a morning at leisure and lunch before departing the hotel to commence the homeward journey.
