Close. You can walk down to the beach and it's at the top of the wooden steps from the beach. I haven't been for a long time, Shanklin and Sandown are crapholes (not carpholes :lol ) but the rest of it is very nice, we were staying just outside Freshwater at Brighstone.

The tasteful mid blue transit with attachments selling ice creams looks pretty special but the winner has got to be the Renault 5

If anyone want to do better drop me your email address and I'll send the 3 original JPEGs.

That must be the silver thing that nudged the B3S Touring over the edge and took it's space then.
