Get over those winter blues with a break to the beautiful Isle of Wight. Famous sights such as The Needles, several castles and stately homes have drawn visitors from all over the world. Queen Victoria and Prince Albert established a favourite residence at Osborne House in East Cowes, which we enjoy as one of our included excursions. Charles Dickens and Lewis Carroll are just two of the literary and artistic greats who were inspired by this ‘enchanted isle’.
