Each week we bring you one of the best beaches in the world as our beach of the week. This week’s best beach is one of the most beautiful beaches on the Isle of Wight.
BEACH: Steephill Cove
WHERE: Ventnor, Isle of Wight
WHY: It is no wonder the locals have kept schtum about this secret cove, with nautical buildings lining the shore, fishermen hard at work, rock pools to explore and striped deckchairs scattered along the sand, this is the perfect place for some bucket-and-spade type fun.
HOW: With no road access, the only way to uncover this gem is to start off at the Ventnor Botanical Gardens, follow the path that runs past Ventnor Cricket Academy and then make your way down the steps off Love Lane.
H2O TONE: Cornflower blue
SAND TONE: Custard Cream
STAY: Meeting the sand, The Lighthouse is a fabulous beach house offering stunning sea views from every room. Lying in the master bedroom it feels as if you are actually in the ocean itself.
WHEN: Only half an hour from the Isle of Wight Festival site, why not spend the weekend of 21st June combining seaside respite with rocking beats?
