<strong>The</strong>re’s more to the Isle of Wight<br />

than you’d expect too!<br />

Everyone loves the character of the Isle of Wight. For<br />

instance at Shanklin you’ll find, Fisherman’s Cottage – a<br />

free house featured in the Good Pub <strong>Guide</strong>.<br />

Nestling on the beach, at the foot of the famous<br />

Shanklin Chine, and the first building on the shore,<br />

Fisherman’s Cottage was built in about 1817 by William<br />

Colenutt who excavated the path through the Chine.<br />

His son-in-law was the first operator of bathing<br />

machines and who provided hot brine baths (bath now<br />

in the Chine). Now it is the popular ‘thatched pub on<br />

the beach’.<br />

With two free moorings in the bay, it is the ideal place<br />

to bring the family, to relax and enjoy a drink, or sample<br />

the varied menu of hot and cold meals.<br />

Yarmouth; everyone’s favourite destination and it hardly<br />

needs to be promoted here.Ah but there’s a secret gem<br />

Where Next?<br />

<strong>The</strong> Fisherman’s Cottage is right on the beach<br />

here too; the Royal Solent Yacht Club. When you’re next<br />

in town pay them a visit, they will make you welcome.<br />

<strong>The</strong>ir clubhouse has been beautifully extended, they do<br />

great food and the views are to die for!<br />
