Sunnyside is now an organic working farm with sheep situated between the lovely villages of Godshill and Whitwell, approximately 4 miles from the seaside town of Ventnor. All fields are down to grass, so there is no restriction to where you can go.

We have a couple of ponds for fishing, they are well stocked with carp, please use bardless hook only, you will need a national fishing licence which can be obtained from the local post office at a cost of £3.50 per day.

There are footpaths / bridle roads, leading directly from the farm onto Stenbury Down for the magnificent views.

A 20 minute walk will get you to a great pub in Godshill, with several others nearby, even an Indian takeaway restaurant who will deliver.

GODSHILL - is a lovely quaint village with plenty to do and see for the whole family, with its charming thatched-roofed cottages, delightful medieval church and a winding main street lined with tearooms, Godshill is the quintessential English Village. Godshill's name derives from the 15th Century church set upon a hill overlooking the village and with its unusual churchyard monuments, it is among the top 10 most visited churches in the UK.

The village itself is host to many attractions including the Model Village, which depicts the entire area in miniature and The Old Smithy, a former blacksmiths forge, which is now a gift shop and fashion boutique. There are also numerous shops offering local crafts and produce, such as ciders, pickles, mustards and biscuits and welcoming tearooms, serving home made cakes along with traditional pubs, suitable for all the family with beamed ceilings and cosy fireplaces. All of which contributes to its old-world charm.

NITON - has a pub, grocery store, post office and chemist. There are several small hideaway cove’s between Ventnor and Niton for you to explore, providing superb swimming and the opportunity to buy fresh crab and lobster from the boat.

VENTNOR - A Victorian town with a Mediterranean feel, Ventnor is one of the sunniest spots on the Island, thanks to its sheltered southerly aspect. Ventnor beach provides superb swimming and the opportunity to buy fresh crab and lobster. Stroll along the sea wall to Bonchurch, the Island's best preserved Victorian village, with pretty cottages, village pond and the tiny 11th Century Old Church of St Boniface. Bonchurch has a sheltered mainly pebbly beach, with adjacent cafés and studio pottery.

BLACKGANG CHINE - an adventure playground is a day out for all the family to enjoy, the kids will love it, take yourself back to the wild west and even further to the dinosaur days and much much more.
