18 - 25 September 2010
The Isle of Wight during early September can be a funny and unpredictable place! Do you pack shorts and T's or should the cagoules get an airing? - We discover it's best to be prepared!
The Isle is the perfect place to unwind and relax. It's got beautiful country walks and amazing coastal hikes. The pubs are fun and every time we visit we find that another fantastic new deli or food outlet has opened up.
We decided to book a holiday let in Gurnard, just up the hill from Cowes and close to my parents house. It is always a bit of a gamble booking on line, but this time we certainly hit the jackpot! The Stable is a wonderful place to stay and it really did feel like a home-from-home. In fact we loved it so much we have already booked for next year!
Pics show just how rough the sea can get at Freshwater Bay and the delights that await you if you decide to wonder down along Compton Beach...
