Isle of Wight holiday!

In July 
we had a fantastic holiday in the Isle of Wight. Hubs had booked to do the Wiggle Around the Island bike ride, so we booked Zalia Wight for the week. We love the Island, and can't remember how any times we have stayed. 

The house was fab, very new and clean, plus they welcomed dogs... thank you! It felt instantly like home for us. The best part was waking every morning to a view of the sea from the huge bedroom window. Morning after morining I enjoyed several cups of tea in bed watching the ships sail past and reading my book! To me that's the way to begin the day. 

The house is in Bonchurch, a secret little corner of the island, that feels quite special. We enjoyed several lovely meals at the pub in the village. The best fish and risotto! The Seapot, on the way to Ventnor is a must. The crab sandwich is the best I've had, and I've tried a few. Hubs tried the honey, peanut butter and banana bagel, which soubded awful to me, but has since become one of our favourite sandwiches to make st home! All with a fab view! 

Lovely walks both ways to Ventnor and Steephill Cove or Shanklin make it all round a great spot!
