Its a pub but mainly a restaurant. Excellent food, lots of home made options and far beyond the proverbial pub chip menu. Look and the sister restaurant the Blacksmiths near Calbourne

Twinned with the Pointer Inn in Newchurch this pub offers fantastic food with spectacular views to the Solent. Not the proverbial chip menu here, homemade dishes.

Steephill Cove is a gem of a place right next to the sea and beach. This little place offers fantastic sea food, my favorite is the mackerel ciabatta and crab pasty (also to take away)

"Basking in the microclimate of The Undercliff, Ventnor Botanic Garden on the Isle of Wight is one of the great gardens of Britain. Our subtropical and exotic plant collection is unrivalled; plants that should be found in protected glasshouses thrive and naturalise out of doors. Our garden is an immersive landscape, transporting the visitor to experience Mediterranean regions from around the world. Our plants grow in association with each other as in the wild. We hope you enjoy this unique and wonderful garden (Curator says) http://www.botanic.co.uk/
