As part of a relaxing holiday you can’t beat taking in some art, photography, history and music to refresh the parts work just can’t reach.
It’s no secret that Queen Victoria adored the Isle of Wight and, as well as a stateswoman, Monarch and Empress, she was also a mum and a grandmother who took her family to the beach for their holidays. Follow in her footsteps and plunge into the waters at Osborne’s private beach after dsicovering the history of this vital palace. For more Victoriana, check out Dimbola Museum and Galleries, the former home of Julia Cameron, one of the pioneering photographers of the age.
Contrast history with modern day culture at the Rhythm Tree 2017 and Mondomix music festivals, with major bands and acts from all over the world. Or spend some leisure time at Shanklin Theatre or the Medina Theatre, with their eclectic programmes of plays, musicals and comedians.
