    Best video I’ve seen of. our lovely island. And what a lovely family too. You packed so much in. Probably needed a diet for a couple of weeks afterwards! 🤣

      Ah thank you James! We had so much fun as we love action packed holidays. I can confirm I did have to get some extra runs in for about two months afterwards to shift some of that food 😅

    I visited the IOW for a week back in the 70s from London with my primary school as a child and I absolutely loved it. Last year for my 50th my partner took me back there… We stayed in Ryde, travelled by hovercraft over to Southsea and back and drove around the island just loving to see all the random places we travelled through and taking in all the tree’s and plants that don’t usually appear on the mainland. The IOW is truly a special and beautiful island x

    I really enjoyed your video about your holiday on IOW. My grandparents bought a house in Ryde after the second world war, my father was stationed there near Shanklin, in the RAF and my uncle was a prison warder/PT instructor at Parkhurst prison. So from the age of 2 I have spent many happy holidays there, every school holiday right up to when I was a teacher of handicapped children in London and took two groups of 16 year olds there for a week every year. I have always loved the laid back way life is on the island, its always 3 to 5 degrees warmer there than the mainland, its very clean, very little crime and a great place to take kids. The food and the beer is plentiful and you know what it is, the money's British, we drive on the left, we speak English, there's hardly any bugs......Who needs Spain of Portugal? It brought back many memories for me, well done. PS..I am now 73.

    Fantastic video. I used to visit the island with my family in the 70s/80s. I'm 50 now and live in Australia and miss the island an awful lot. Whenever I got back to the UK I would always get the ferry over for a few days. Fingers crossed I'll be able to again soon!

      Yes, I've no idea why I typed Southampton, especially as I'd already said in the opening scene we were on our way to Portsmouth! A 'DOH' moment!
      Ventnor was quite hilly, and the walk from the gardens to Steephill Cove was quite a trek - but it was all worth it for us! :D

    Very comprehensive tour of most places of interest on the island - you must have done a lot of research first.
    Maybe you'll be doing other places in Britain too.
    Music a little tedious, perhaps a touch too loud over your fine dialogue.
