Sail to the Isle of Lurve for Valentine’s Day

With Valentine's Day approaching fast, Hovertravel is claiming the Isle of Wight is the most romantic island in the UK.

With beautiful beaches perfect for walking hand in hand, to a luxurious stay at The Hambrough, a smart boutique hotel facing the sea in Ventnor, the Isle of Wight has something for all Valentine budgets.

After skimming across the Solent on the hovercraft, couples can simply sit and eat some of the best seaside fish and chips just watching the sea. Alternatively would-be romantics can enjoy some fabulous pub grub beside a real log fire in pubs such as The Boathouse in Seaview or The Folly in East Cowes.

If you are looking for something extra special you can treat your partner to gourmet excellence at The Hambrough’s Michelin-starred restaurant, prepared by Chef Patron Robert Thompson; perhaps even stay the night and enjoy breakfast in bed the next morning.

Says Loretta Lale, marketing manager for Hovertravel: “A Valentine trip to the Isle of Wight with Hovertravel is sure to impress. The speedy, ten-minute crossing is the fastest way to the island’s many romantic locations. Also with 2012 being a leap year we may even see a hover proposal or two!”
