2025 Newport Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in June)

Today I got the Ferry from Portsmouth to Ryde and jumped on the number 9 bus to Newport and the number 1 bus to Carisbrooke Hill. After a short picturesque walk past some amazing cottages, Mill and stream (picture 2) with a small climb to the top of an amazingly stunning village we stumbled across Carisbrooke castle. Plenty of history to read about, part of the English heritage group and suffocating in regal history dating right up 1930s and Beattie the daughter to Queen Victoria. I chose to walk but you can drive to the top and park as I would suggest for anyone facing disabilities of any kind and may feel they would struggle. The bus was cheap and the visit worth the effort. #travel #thingstodo #citydaytours #staycation

#summervacay The Isle of Wight is tailor-made for a #summervacay escape. Just a short ferry ride from the mainland, it offers golden beaches, scenic coastal walks, and charming towns like Shanklin, Ventnor, and Cowes. Summer is buzzing with festivals, including the famous Isle of Wight Festival and family-friendly events. Visit Osborne House (Queen Victoria’s seaside retreat), take a chairlift down to Alum Bay, or walk along the cliffs by The Needles. Whether you want beaches, history, or island calm, this sun-drenched spot checks all the summer holiday boxes.

one of the best bakery places i have been to, good prices and I always make sure I go there when visiting the isle of wight
