The Isle of Wight is often described as the ‘Garden Isle’ or ‘England in Miniature’, for no other part of Britain contains such a variety of scenery. The peaceful beauty, delightful villages, coastal walks, sandy beaches and mild climate make the island a holiday paradise. The well positioned Ocean View Hotel in Shanklin commands superb views over Sandown Bay and is just a short walk from the Old Village. All bedrooms are en-suite with TV and tea facilities. There are spacious lounges with extensive sea views, nightly entertainment in the ballroom, games room and heated indoor pool. There is a lift to all floors but please note that due to its cliff-top location, there are isolated steps throughout much of the building. Half board accommodation.
