The village of Wootton Bridge is an eclectic mix of modern and Victorian buildings and also boasts the renowned Sloop Inn on Mill Square.

Visitors will find places of interest to suit all ages and tastes including the Roman Villa at Brading, a wax museum housed in the island’s oldest domestic building dating from 1499, The Isle of Wight Steam Railway, the Butterfly and Fountain World, interactive dinosaur museums, Carisbrooke Castle, Osborne House, the Botanic Gardens at Ventnor, traditional craft studios and Firestone Copse with its picnic sites and walks. A short drive leads to Cowes, host to regattas every summer as well as the famous Cowes Week, whilst the natural harbour at Bembridge throngs with yachts and pretty houseboats. A wealth of outdoor activities can be readily accessed – golf, riding, sailing, cycle hire and fishing are all found nearby and windsurfing, jet skiing, sailplane flying and hang gliding are also available.
