2026 - Turkey & Tinsel Isle of Wight

Turkey & Tinsel "Victorian Christmas" Shanklin, Isle of Wight

 

Join us to the Isle of Wight for our first Turkey & Tinsel, Staying at Bourne Hall Hotel this elegant, family run, Country House Hotel

was originally built in the late 1860's, said to be for one of Queen Victoria's  ladies in waiting. Uniquely located on an elevated position

at the foot of Luccombe Downs. A few minutes walk south of Shanklin "old village"

 

One of our excursions will be to Osborne House, the private family life of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert at Osborne on the Isle of Wight.

From sumptuous interiors and art collections inside, to a peaceful beach and marvellous gardens outside, a day out at Osborne has

something for everyone. Explore Osborne’s vast grounds, follow the interactive tree trail and find the unusual Swiss Cottage,

where the royal children played, gardened, cooked and collected unusual objects in their own private museum.

Victoria and Albert bought and built Osborne to fulfil the queen’s desire for a ‘place of one’s own – quiet and retired’.

Its dazzling interiors, art collection, gardens and grounds reflect their personal passions, taste and style.
