Summer Sun on the Isle of Wight with Colin & Pat - June 2011

We started our holiday to the Isle of Wight as we tend to do most times that we visit the Island by first stopping for lunch in a very nice country pub in the New Forest.

Our stay at the Warners Hotel, Norton Grange is always very comfortable and the food and entertainment are excellent.

During the week we visited Osborne House (a must for the first timers)where we toured the house and the grounds. We also paid a visit to the Donkey sanctuary, the picturesque village of "Old Shanklin" and of course the customary trip to see the "Needles" where much time was spent in the sand shop, glass making factory and sweet factory.

During the week we also found time for a swim in the Hotel pool which included the Jacuzzi and steam room and also a game of snooker and darts.

One night we travelled out for a game of 10 pin bowling otherwise on all the other nights we headed for the Mariners Bar for an evening of entertainment and dancing.

Everyone had a good time and all said that they looked forward to their next holiday with JollyDays !!!

Smiles all round on board the ferry.

Hold on tight!
