It is definitely Autumn now on the Island - the pretty kind though - the sun is still shining, the air is brisk - step outside and take deep lungfuls of fresh air - sea air, if you are right by the coast!
It is a photographers paradise here - country lanes where the leaves are turning golden, clear pathways across rolling hills with views to the mainland, or away across the English Channel, beaches where the waves roll in against the cliffs, shooting spray high and wide...
Now is an ideal time to visit the Isle of Wight, and at
WightStay, we have all kinds of accommodation to tempt you to stay on the Isle of Wight. Have a look at our new list of
camping and touring sites on the Isle of Wight, our
hotels in Sandown and Freshwater, and our
self catering cottages and chalets - farm and country holidays to suit you! One great example is
Gurnard Pines, set within 55 acres of woodland and just a short stroll from the beach, it is a beautiful place to stay - and you'll see exactly what I mean about Autumn colours there.
Many of our hotels, B&B's and self catering locations also carry special offers - give them a call, or check out the
website to see who has the best deals!
