Gaze out at the rolling hills, sweeping coastline of the Solent with views to Dorset and the sparkling Solent and Channel seas, sights that will leave you spellbound and yearning for more. Beyond the fort’s walls, the Isle of Wight beckons with its abundance of natural beauty and captivating attractions. Golden Hill Fort is ideally located to explore the island’s diverse offerings. Nearby, you can discover quaint villages, with Yarmouth and The Needles close by, stunning beaches at Colwell and Compton and picturesque countryside walks, all waiting to be explored. The Fort is close to top restaurants in West Wight.
For history enthusiasts, the Isle of Wight boasts a rich heritage, including Osborne House, the former holiday residence of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. Carisbrooke Castle is another ‘must-visit’ during a stay. If you seek adventure, there are ample opportunities for watersports, boating, cycling, and hiking, allowing you to connect with the island’s rugged coastal landscapes and island footpath. Residents qualify for a discount on superyacht charters, arranged with the owners, picked up from the picturesque Yarmouth Harbour.
