The Isle of Wight - Coast Path
7 nights

 

From imposing chalk cliffs to peaceful river estuaries, the Isle of Wight coast has a huge variety of coastal landscapes and moods.  Heading in a clockwise direction we'll absorb the ever-changing sea views as we explore this much-loved island. We stay at one hotel for the week at Freshwater Bay and each day travel by private coach to start and end the walk.
