As Englands largest island, the Isle of Wight has over sixty miles of fantastic coastline, much of it recognised as Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Sandown is a traditional beach resort set in a delightful bay on the south east coast with its gently sloping sandy beaches, miles of coastline, blue sea and great choice of attractions and places to eat.
Popular with clients over recent years, our base in Sandown is once again the very comfortable TROUVILLE HOTEL which is very well situated on the seafront opposite the golden beach. Features of the Trouville include a restaurant with sea views along with leisure facilities including short mat bowls, table tennis and the largest hotel ballroom on the island. All of the well appointed en suite twin/double bedrooms have a sea view tv, telephone and hospitality tray (please note single rooms do not have sea views). A passenger lift serves all floors.
