Neighbourhood information

Shanklin is one of the most visited parts of the island. We have easy access to lovely beaches, and seafront bars and amusements. In land we have he beautiful old village with numinous picture post card pubs and garden tea rooms. Linking the sea front to the old village is the enigmatic Shanklin Chine. This is a wooed walk way through a wooded gorge which offers shelter to may play species and wildlife. These is a large waterfall at the old village end. Park land areas can also be found tucked away behind the old village where you can find more places to eat and amusements like crazy golf. There are also easy coastal walks to Sandown and Ventor.
