Whilst the hustle and bustle of the summer months comes to an end, the Isle of Wight doesn’t shut up shop. Instead it transforms in to winter wonderland, with plenty of festive things to see and do. Why not make your way to the Isle of Wight for a relaxing Christmas escape? Put on your best knitwear or outrageous Christmas jumper and head on over to the Island for a Wight Christmas.
The Isle of Wight hosts a great range of events to take part in during December. Take a look at the list at the bottom of the page to find out about some of the fantastic events that are happening this year.
And for those last-minute Christmas presents, explore our towns and villages where you’ll find all sorts of wonderful shops selling gifts and produce made on the Isle of Wight. The Island is famed for its local produce and would make the perfect Christmas hamper.
From the 30th November to 3rd December, Tiny Homes are offering a weekend of Christmas craftiness - including aromatherapy candle making, bath bombs, natural firelighters, decorations and a fantastic natural wreath - priced at £285 per person (for two people sharing a Tiny Home). The three-night stay will include five craft workshops on the Saturday and Sunday, in the on-site. All tools and materials, lunches and refreshments, and a breakfast are also included in the price.
On the 1st and 2nd of December Osborne will give visitors the chance to experience the spirit of a Victorian Christmas - having a go at traditional games, taking a ride on the carousel and delighting in jovial entertainers. Also featuring the festive sounds of the season and the smell the roasting chestnuts in the snowy courtyard, it will also give youngsters the chance to make their own traditional toys. Father Christmas and a handful of familiar Dickensian characters will be on hand in the festively dressed rooms. And - new for this year - there will be a Victorian Christmas After Dark, featuring magical festive lights in the grounds.
With over 200 decorated trees in seven venues, The Spectacular Brighstone Christmas Tree Festival is sure to put you in the festive mood. There will be a myriad of attractions, themed Christmas tree galore and a special 'Lights of Love' carol service in Brighstone Church.
One of the Isle of Wight’s most impressive features is its stunning landscape. Here you’ll get to explore all kinds of countryside – grassy hills and fields, vast sandy beaches, chalk cliffs and pebbly coves. When it comes to cool, crisp winters in the countryside, the Isle of Wight has it down to a fine art.
Put on your walking shoes and warm jacket and take a stroll along our coastal footpaths to witness the very best of the Isle of Wight’s landscape. Why not top it off with a well-deserved meal at one of our excellent pubs or restaurants next to a cosy log fire.
The Island has a fantastic range of accommodation; from holiday cottages by the sea to luxury hotels, there’s something for everyone. Take a look at our accommodation page to see what’s available. See our travel page for more information on how to get here. We’re just three and a half hours from London (door to door), making us the perfect destination for a winter escape.
Treat yourself to an early Christmas present and prepare for an unforgettable Christmas with some fantastic offers to make your holiday even more memorable. Don't forget to sign up to our email newsletter too, which is full to the brim with offers and news from around the Island.
