For a taste of the local flora and fauna, wander through the idyllic Naturezones, a 10-acre wildlife garden, wildflower nursery, education centre and art centre or visit the Carisbrooke Castle Museum that is rich with artefacts charting the island’s history. A leisurely trip to the Isle of Wight isn’t complete without staying at The Retreat, truly a haven away from home.
