Freedom Breaks offer a flexible way to enjoy some of Britain's most scenic areas.
The Isle of Wight offers magnificent scenery and is an ideal place to enjoy a relaxing break, any time of the year. The island is diamond-shaped, 25 miles long and 15 miles wide. Our base at Freshwater Bay lies at the foot of the famous white cliffs, with excellent walks on the doorstep.
Highlights of your stay could include:
- Excellent walks along the island’s coast path and chalk downs, including the magnificent chalk cliffs of Tennyson Down to the Needles
- Beaches ranging from quiet coves to stretches of golden sand with cliffs that are often rich with fossils
- Osborne House, Queen Victoria's favourite holiday home. The house has remained largely unchanged since the country's longest serving monarch died here 100 years ago
- Blackgang Chine fantasy park, complete with its dinosaurs, smugglers village and wild-west town
