Away from the beach, the main town offers a multitude of shops, cafés, bars, and restaurants. The Old Village is renowned for its pretty thatched cottages, cosy tea rooms, pubs, restaurants and craft shops. The seaside town of Shanklin is well served by public transport around the island with regular buses and the railway ‘Island Line’ to Ryde and Sandown.
Outdoor pursuits on the island include horse riding, fishing, cycling, paragliding, golf and water sports. There are numerous attractions across the island to discover for all ages such as The Needles, with its chairlift, amusement park, boat rides, lighthouse and coloured sands of Alum Bay. Blackgang Chine, Dinosaur Isle, the Isle of Wight Steam Railway, Ventnor Botanical Gardens, Tapnell Farm Park and Carisbrooke Castle are other attractions. Or why not pay a visit to Queen Victoria’s favourite holiday residence, Osborne House, and its gardens? The sailing towns of Yarmouth and Cowes also make for a great day out. Whatever you decide, the Isle of Wight has plenty to offer.

A great place to stay. Hosts are very quick to respond if you have a question which was appreciated. There is everything you could need in a holiday house and more. Very comfortable and convenient for lots of attractions. Lots of little extras including a welcome basket which was a really nice touch. I would highly recommend

We chose Old School Mews as it offered the facilities we wanted without realising the additional benefits of its location on the Isle, as It is close to the beach, station, bus routes and convenience stores. Shanklin is a few minutes away by car which has some very good restaurants. OSM itself is a home from home and we wanted for nothing during our stay. Our hosts Kerry & Steve catered for everything and the welcome pack was an unexpected and much appreciated treat. We have already recommended staying here to our family and will do so to our friends. We thoroughly recommend the Old School Mews.
