We are perfectly situated for an overnight stop along the Coastal Walk around the Island, or a weekend away from the rat race on North Island (England). The Wight Mouse is a large old pub/restaurant/hotel only a couple of minutes walk away, very convenient! We love the Buddle in Niton too, good food, good vibes and some quality music at weekends. Its a bit furtheraway though, not really a walk back home unless you are very keen.

We have two rooms for bed and breakfast; the St Catherine's room ( looking east over the school, the badger set and a heavy horse meadow) and the Cherbourg room with itsstupendous view of the channel and cliffs. There are also some options for those who want to camp, we recently installed an extra al fresco camping washroom loo with solar lighting...

There is a lovely little walking stick twisted hazel tree by the pond, set in a sheltered glade with a picnic barbecue table and cheery lighting for you to enjoy on those balmy Island evenings. You may have to put up with some dodgy guitar playing pilots around the brazier after a great days flying of course!

Butterfly Paragliding, the flying school and Tandem Flight centre, with its simulator, paramotor and paraglider shop is on site in a separate building. If the wind is not suitable for hill soaring, we can use the winch for tow launch training and tandem flights.

Take off is within 50 metres of breakfast in the conservatory, overlooking the channel. Sea breezes often allow extended soaring flights along 16 km of cliffs, sometimes to Freshwater and back again, known as the famous "Blackgang Run".

A fabulous lostland area of outstanding natural beauty (AONB) with private adventure trail leads down to a very secluded beach. Abundant wildlife and flora populate the extraordinary landscape; badgers, foxes, pheasant, partridge, kestrels, buzzards,doves, cats, dogs, rabbits, gulls and peregrine falcons are seen on a daily basis!
