Isle Of Wight Getaway

12th March 2013 : Places : Away

Sometimes, when life catches up with you, and you find yourself doing everything at a million miles per hour and forgetting to breathe, it’s good to just take some time away. Which is exactly what I did. As you may, or may not know, the Isle of Wight is one of those places where I always feel relaxed and have such happy childhood memories there. When i’m feeling stressed, the beach and the sea are the perfect de-stressing combination. I think I could sit on an empty beach all day, just thinking and doing nothing. It’s important that we all take some time away from our busy schedules and life’s many stresses and have some recuperation. I love the Isle of Wight because it’s only around 2 and a half hours away and a short ferry ride and you feel as though you are detached from the usual familiar surroundings. There are so many quaint little towns and villages and it only takes you around 30 minutes to get from one side of the island to the other, and you just feel as though you are surrounded by beaches and the sea. It was so nice to get away! Here are some snaps from my IOW visit. Sadly the one place I really wanted to go was BlackGang Chine (an old childhood favourite) and that was shut for the winter (re-opening on the 22nd I believe), so I JUST missed out on that one, but come summertime, I’ll be back and hyped up for it, haha! I hope you like my photos and that they also bring you a nice sense of calm.

Places I advise to you to visit : 

BlackGangChine (once it’s open)

Godshill (The Model Village & Chocolate Island – The hot chocolates are INCREDIBLE)

Shanklin & The Chine

Ryde 

Sandown Zoo

Owl & Monkey Haven

Ventnor

Go for random drives where you don’t really know where you are going, and anywhere that you see a few cars pulled over, just join them. Chances are they are watching an incredible view of the sunset or know a secret pathway to a remote beach. 

Do you have that one place where you can completely escape life to? Have you ever been to the Isle of Wight?

    Beautiful post. I remember going to Isle of Wight as a child too and it was always so much fun. I always try to take time out when I'm feeling everything is moving a little too quickly. Everyone needs a little RnR sometimes! x

  10. I love going to the Isle of Lewis, I have family there. It's a whole two days in the car away from me though, I live in the Midlands! Even though I only go once every year or two, I absolutely love it.

    Lovely pictures, it sounds like you had a lovely time! x

  12. This looks like my idea of paradise right now, somewhere peaceful. It's good to step back and take 5 minutes every now and then.

    Lovely photos.

    Beautiful pictures, just looking at them made me feel calm. I visited IOW a few years ago but I was only there for about 2 hours. It'd be lovely to visit when the weather's nice.

  16. Lucia

    Aaw… I've been to the Isle of Wight once and I remember the Rock Shop. It's such a cute place. Maybe you've heard of our school? We go there every year around February for a drama workshop.

  17. Wow! This looks like such an amazing place. I have heard of the IOW but I've never heard how pretty it is, definitely been aded to my list of places to visit!

    Thanks for sharing your amazing trip and hope you feel all refreshed :)

  33. Ooooh I ADORE the Isle of Wight and I'm really near so massive bonus. I'm surrounded by some of the best beaches in the world so I'm ridiculously lucky that on my door step are a million adventures and peaceful moments to be had but I'm staying with my Auntie and Uncle soon in Wiltshire and I cannot wait to explore more. Roadtrips are escapes are the best. The very best.

    PS: Stop by my way next time lovely!!

    xoxo

  35. Im from the Isle of Wight, I live in London now as Im at uni and its so nice to go home to somewhere completely different, the ferry ride too makes it feel like your going that little bit further away from what is now reality, to a place which for me is now all about relaxing and enjoying times with family and old friends. It really is a little sanctuary. Glad you enjoyed a corner of the world that I love. :)

  36. lovely

    This place is sooo beautiful *-* wow i would really never know that in England are such lovely cute little places :)the pictures are beautiful , too!

    I escape into my holiday home there is a lot nature and silence and i love to be there :)

    xoxo

    This looks amazing! I've been thinking about this a lot recently actually- my escape used to be Guernsey, as my ex lives there ( andI went a lot when we were together), and now I can't go there, I think I need a new one. I think there is something about British islands- they are just so lovely! x

  50. That looks so cosy – really makes me want to go somewhere and forget everything about all the exam-tests I have at the moment, sigh. ;-)

  51. We went to the IOW for our first ever school trip. Black Gang Chine is awesome! Also….is it alum bay sands with all the different colour sands that they layer into like a guitar for you?! Childhood!

    Nothing like sea air and the sound of the waves to relax you xx

  52. Beautiful pictures Zoe!! I have only been there once but really loved it!

    alittlebitsunshine.blogspot.co.uk

  53. Beautiful Photos! Thanks for sharing! Architecture in the UK & Europe is by far WAY WAY WAY more beautiful then here in the states! My favorite place to unwind is Sanibel & Captiva Island off the coast of Florida. I have a lot of really good memories from my childhood there too! It always relaxes me and makes me happy :) I"m a new follower of your blog & youtube! Thanks for posting such great posts!

    why are you so gorgeous? <3 xx

  55. The pictures are incredibely beautiful! Whenever I see a cottage my heart explodes. :D Other people want white beaches and blue seas, and I just want a good old english cottage on a pretty island. :) The Isle of Wight is definitely one place I want to visit.
    Lovely, lovely post, Zoe! <3

    The IOW is extremely special to me too. I had all my childhood holiday all around the island and it's now the place where I go with my family for day trips. It's become even more special to me since it's the place my boyfriend and I had our first couple holiday together. I'm sure it will always be a special place for me to go and get away from it all, like it is for you :)

  57. Such a beautiful place…I'll have to visit, for sure! :D

  58. Completely agree Zoe :) I live in Portugal, very close to the beach and at the moment as there are no tourists, it's really quiet and peaceful. I love to go there with my doggie woggie and my boy and just take it all in. The sound of waves are very relaxing and I just feel at ease. :)

    I've never been to the Isle of Wright, but having seen your photos, I think a trip is in order! xx

  70. Gorgeous photos, Zoe! I know what you mean about sometimes needing to get away to some calm, remote place when things get stressful! I've never been to the Isle of Wight but from your pictures it looks so perfect I really want to visit it now :) hope your little getaway was refreshing. places by the sea make good places to escape to for me :) x

  71. I've been to that rock shop hehe, when i went on a trip with my school!x …. i bought my first collection 2000 concealer from the boots there hahah!

  72. Stefy

    Such a wonderful looking place, wish I could go there. Maybe some day when I visit the UK I go. Those photos are just beautiful, looks like you had wonderful time.

  79. RCagz

    I think people really underestimate what a gorgeous place the IOW is. Shanklin is especially lovely :) lovely photos, makes me wanna go visit again! xoxo

  80. I'm from NZ too and was just thinking the same thing. I think one day I want to go on a road trip and find the NZ equivalent of this stunning piece of the world :D x

  81. You look so calm and at peace at those photographs, it's great you had such a lovely time destressing there! The Isle of Wight seems like a really beautiful place to visit. Those are such wonderful photographs! :)

  82. Wow, I would love to visit these places one day! The photos you took are beautiful! xox

  83. I've actually never been to the Isle of Wight but I would love to go, the pictures you took are really lovely! I go camping a lot and because I am outdoors constantly I feel that is a place where I feel I can be free from all my stress and just relax. :)

  85. I've never been to the isle of white. The photos look so beautiful and relaxing. Glad you had a lovely time x

  88. Teresa

    looks like you had a great time! i wish the weather was nicer in michigan so i could go somewhere like this :( if i did id have to bundle up! hahaha

  89. If you like the Isle of Wight then you'd love the Channel Islands- Guernsey, Sark and Herm! They are tiny islands between France and England, only 30 minites plane journey, and they're so quaint and gorgeous!
    That's where I love to escape…
    x

  90. IOW is absolutely amazing, when I went I felt so calm for the full week I was there and I have honestly never stayed so calm and relaxed. The rock shop is such an amazing shop, everything tastes so good!

  93. Nicole

    I totally agree! I can't visit my place as easily, but I always loved Drackendorf right down the road from where I stayed on my year abroad. It was really strange, because I lived in a part of the city that could have *seriously* been used for a documentary on eastern Germany, but then you walked past the hospital and you were in a hilly, green village. But the walks around that part of the city were so soothing.

    In the UK, I love driving around the north Wales area – there's a great stretch on the A5 (I think!) between Bethesda and Betws-y-Coed that looks like it's been lifted out of an LotR movie.

    Cute scenery, I haven't been to the Isle of Wight since I was a child, so you bring back memories for me too. Thanks for the post, xoxo.

  97. have you ever studied photography? you're very good :) i loooove the british seaside, its very much under rated. isle of wight seems so cute the shops are like little doll houses x

  98. I would LOVE to go there. But I'm in Texas (;
    very beautiful!

  99. I went to the Isle of Wight in 2011, and it was one of my most favourite times! I took the exact same photo as the last one you've included here, that's so weird haha! The rock shop is amazing too, it makes me want to go back! I completely agree with the taking time out thing, lovely post Zoe <3

    Your pictures are so lovely! I'd love to visit the Isle of Wight one day.. *le sigh* I'd have to say my favorite getaway- though I've only been once- is La Cadière in the south of France. I've never been more at peace in my entire life and I could sure use a little mini break there right about now!

  105. I'd love to go there – I love sitting on the beach watching the world go by :)

    amylaurenblog.blogspot

  107. I've been to all the places you recommended :p I love the island it's so cute :')

  111. this is such a lovely post – and i completely agree – it's nice to have somewhere to disappear off to! :) great photos! you should take more in london too – it's my favorite city in the world and i'd love to know some of your tips or thoughts on the best places to go!!! :)

  115. These pictures look beautiful! I'm from Canada and was in England for 4 months last year and absolutely loved it. Unfortunately I did not get to visit the Isle of Wight but I have always heard many good things. I also completely agree with you with taking some time to "free your mind". xx

  116. Mandy

    Isle Of Wight looks so pretty, I cannot wait till summer for beach visits. Living near London I rarely see places like that. I went to Portsmouth last week and just disconnecting myself and listening to the waves crash feels like a stress relief; Under so much pressure and stress at the moment due to university approaching.

    Last time I went to IOW was when I was 11/12 on a school trip, my most memorable moment was when my childhood best friend and I was finding sparkly stones on this beach as an activity. She found one and had it halved. She kept one piece and gave the other piece to me, sadly she is my distant friend now. I wonder if she still hold that piece of halved stone. *smiles at the thought*

    & Zoe, you look so pretty, I particularly like your outfit with the pink skirt. It's a quite daring piece. I have to venture out these summer colours too (if I'm brave enough).

  117. Taylor

    It looks beautiful xo

  118. M+K

    These photos look professionally taken! We love the pink skirt you are wearing. We've never been to England before but we want to and now that you've shown us all the great places to visit we might just have to come!

  119. I go to Tenby when I feel stressed! It is about an hour's drive from me, it has a beach 20 minute walk away and has a cute, small town. It makes me feel very relaxed and makes you realise how small you are! Loved this post! <3

  120. Chloe

    I went Yes! when i seen you had written a new post :D I love going away to places that i've went to as a child mostly them being up in scotlan but there is a few places i've loved & have amazing childhood memories. The Isle of Wight looks so nice to go to in the Summer :D & i love beaches too – they are so calming :) i love your photos you took too :) the angles in some of them are pretty awesome :D & i love the outfits you have worn in them :)
    might need to visit here in the summer as a mini break :D

    Not as fabulous and peaceful but I live with family currently and go to the family flat in Manchester when I need to de-stress. It's only an hour away. Wish I could go to the IoW, really want to go Bestival!

  123. Lucy B

    These photos are amazing! It looks so beautiful and calm :) how I wish I could just go there now!!

  125. I love going to West Bay in Dorset :)

  126. The little cottages were so cute! :)

  127. Joelle

    I LOVE it there! Been there a few time's and it's just a quick ferry-ride from where I used to live.
    I do love Cornwal more though. It's like my little escape from the big city!

  134. I would love to go somewhere like that! I've never left North America!
    The houses look like play houses or doll houses! They are really cute! Do all the buildings look like that! It's so beautiful.
    I know what you mean… You get so busy doing things that you loose your focus on what really matters! Or you stop giving everything 100%

    I'm glad you got a break! We all need one now and then!

  135. What a lovely blog post Zoe. Your pictures are incredible. I haven't visited the IoW since I was a child so can't really remember what is like there. I leave near the beach and I love taking long walks down there, especially when its snowy and the sun is setting. It really helps me to unwind and calm my soul. Sometimes I do feel it is a bit too close for home and would love somewhere to go that is a bit further away. I may go and visit the IoW under your recommendation as it truly looks stunning. I'm glad you had a lovely time where you could unwind and detach yourself from your hectic life :)

    Those are such gorgeous photos! I love the British seaside in the winter! It's so blustery, wet and cold. It's refreshing to wrap up and just walk for as long as you like, without worrying about bumping into someone you know or seeing big billboards and taxis on every corner. I envy you!!

    The pictures are beautiful! And the houses look just as if they were from a fairy tale, not from a real world place!

  161. jenn f

    i have to say that the photos were wonderfully lovely. the pastel coloring almost was childhood-esque and some of the photos seemed almost like miniature train set models. wonderful wonderful :)

    no i haven't been to the Isle of Wright but i would have to say that Whistler, BC, Canada is consistently my retreat. the mountains and the winter air. perfect.

  162. Wow it looks gorgeous! Would love to go there :)

  164. yay you posted again~! The photos you took are lovely and the places look amazingly beautiful! If only I could visit in real life! Sadly, north america is quite far from the UK but one day, I hope to go to all the places you mentioned!

    geekypinkness.blogspot.com

  165. This is absolutely gorgeous. People think that because I'm from Florida and live by a beach, that it's like a vacation all the time. It's not. I would trade anything to be there any day. It's just so cute! xx

    http://girlmeetsglamourworld.blogspot.com

  166. These pictures are gorgeous! I was super excited to see a blog post from you, but it's good that you've been taking some time for yourself. So often, we run ourselves down into the ground trying to keep up with everything, and we forget to just breathe. Still, these pictures make me so nostalgic of beach vacations. I love your outfit with the pink skirt. You really are a fabulous lady. :) Hope you are feeling more relaxed now.

  167. it looks magical :D I have that in Bulgaria – million places to go to and escape. Today I was thinking so much how I miss that – the untroubled childhood – walking in the warm rain, running in the village with goats, cows,ducks at endless green valleys, which have million shades of green – grass green, lime…
    or in the town – going in the mountain just 2 hours away from the city center – on foot…aaagggrrrr, now here – in Scotland it's nice – high up North – but here in the big city what can you see? a wonderful sunset in the summer, in a park…and someone getting mildly assaulted three meters away – picturesque I guess. :) but hmm when you need to escape and do not have the means (financial, in terms of getting out of town) – getting back to old photos, switching off the phone, tea and good friend (in case the friend is far away – a book, or a pen and paper) r the perfect remedy of escaping.

  168. These pictures are amazing! I came to NYC for my vacation!:)

  169. The rock shop is just cuteness overload!

  170. These are such wonderful photos, Zoella! I really enjoyed reading this post. Yes, we all need some time to breathe and spend time just enjoying life once in a while!

  181. I'm calling my landlord immediatley and moving out. Then buying a house on that bloomin' lovely island, you even made it look warm which I know for sure it is not as Bristol is bloody freezing at the moment.

  183. Such a cute post! I haven't been to the Isle of Wight since I was a child and I would love to go back. This post has definitely just made me want to go back even more.

  185. Amazing views, amazing place. It is nice to have somewhere where you know you can just relax and escape the craziness of the day. For me, when I cannot put up with life anymore, I go for a walk, to a park somwhere near my house. It is not that stunning, but I still like to walk endlessly, whithout caring about the time, the place or the few people around me. I just walk and walk through the flatness of the Netherlands, until I arrive to the next town or the next house. Sometimes, if I have the time, I take the train and go to the beach. The sea has an amazing power to heal our souls, no matter how broken they are…

  186. I seriously love the isle of wight! I went there 3 years in a row and its just the most beautiful place. It just feels so strange because its not that far from london yet feels like your in a different country. Beautiful

  187. Lara

    stunning photos, looks like an amazing place! I wish I lived near the sea, it's just something about it that's so calming.

  188. You are right, when my exams are finished this year, i just need to go somewhere different. I've never been there, it looks so stunning and looks as if it would be fun to explore!

  192. very beautiful place. :)

  193. really nice pictures!! :)

  194. Dear Zoella,

    I've been living in Plymouth for a while and enjoyed the beautiful Isle of Wight, even as the whole coast around Plymouth, such as Porthmouth, Torquay and also Bath! (saw that one earlier on Joe's Vlog). You bring back the good memories, even as the familiar style that I miss back here in The Netherlands. Great fan of yours and England!

    Best,
    Charlotte – The Netherlands

  195. Doke

    Hey, I'm from the netherlands too! :) And although my town (Deventer) is also very lovely, I definitely want to pay a visit to Isle of Wight some day, it looks dreamy…

  200. Emmy

    Love! It looks so relaxing and calm. You are also amazing Zoe, you really inspire me and I never say that because its soppy :) xx

  201. The IOW looks soo pretty. I'd love to go there one day. My go to place for chilling out (if I had the petrol money to waste **sigh**) would be Cornwall.. specifically St Agnes in Cornwall. It's so darn pretty and a really cute village.

  204. It looks so pretty! Definitely on my list of places to visit. I live in Singapore and the environment is distinctly different here. Very busy, lots of people and I like to be in places like the Isle of Wight where you can just take a breather. Thanks for sharing your experience here love x

  205. I'm from Belgium and I can tell you that I really really want to move when I see those beautiful places haha. Lovely pictures and you look great!

  222. I've never been to the Isle of Wight, but now I'm adding it to the bucket list! The Netherlands, I hear, is absolutely gorgeous. Coincidently, I make my way down to the beaches as well when I'm feeling stressed. Here in South Florida, there are a bunch to choose from. Yay for beaches!

    3girls1apple.com

  223. Unfortunately I haven't been to the Isle of Wight. But it's on my list of places I want to visit. I actually have 2 places that I like to escape to if the world overwhelms me or i just want to be alone. The first place is a beach about 45 mins walk from my house and nobody knows about it so it's always empty. Or the second place is a drive up the mountain an sitting at the highest point you can find and just look down to the sea. I definitely feel like I'm on top of the world up there. Oh, and I should mention that this amazing places are on the island were I live, Kefalonia, Greece.(If anyone wants to come visit)!!!!

  224. Why wasn't Alfie in any of the photos?

  225. I've only ever been once to the Isle of Wight and have always wanted to go back. Ventnor beach is one of my favourite memories and these pictures make me want to go back even more! Will have to go there next year sometime… The photos are fantastic! xxx

  226. This places looks absolutely gorgeous. I'm from Amsterdam and I love going to the southern parts of The Netherlands where the lifestyle is so different from what I'm used to. I have so many good memories of holidays spent on the beaches just being a happy kid. Everytime I go back I look forward to long walks on the beach and a stroll throught the old town.

  227. I love Isle of Wight, my nana's brother lives there. It has such beautiful beaches(: Shanklin is probably my favourite place.

  228. Hi there^^,
    I just love this pictures, they´re so relaxing to watch. It must be beautiful there! I wish I could go there! I wonder what you can get in the rock shop O.o, but it looks very cute ♥
    I love you and your blog, its awesome ♥♥♥

  229. I need to take a step back sometimes and slowwww the pace down! Very much needed this post Zoella…so thankyou very muchos! <3 p.s the photographs are taken so well, deffo shows off the IOWs cuteness <3

  230. Jade

    I totally agree. Sometimes it's just brilliant to leave life behind, jump on a train and get off without a care in the world. I could certainly do with doing that right now to be honest. Never been to the Isle of Wight before but it looks beautiful and quaint.

  238. The Isle of Wight makes everything alright.<3 …on a less cheesy note, it is a beautiful place and I would love to go someday. :)

  239. This post reallyyyy makes me want to go a be beside the sea somewhere…

  240. Kelly

    This looks like the cutest little place. I'm sure there are similar places (well not surrounded by beaches) in the US but not anywhere close to me. Did you go by yourself?

  241. Nyssa

    This looks beautiful! Your photos make the island seem so serene and quaint. I hope I get to visit there someday, but for me, Santa Cruz (CA) is where I go when I need to escape :)

  248. hey. I'm from a small town on the south coast -not too far from Brighton- and I love the Isle of Wight! Such a beautiful place.
    Although my favourite place to get away too has to be Newquay. We visited so much when I was a child that I instantly feel happy again.
    You've taken some gorgeous photos here!!
    Much Love.

    I love the Isle of Wight! I literally just got back from PGL on the Isle of Wight a few days before you went! It's so peaceful there, probably one of my favourite places xxx

  250. woah this place looks incredible. Definitely considering a road trip come summer!! :)
    I visit a little village called tenby most summers and have the best childhood memories plus it's god the same stress-free vibe that you describe here! Perfect when you need to take a break from all the stress of reality! x

    Nice work done… You have shared very good information… I enjoyed your post.
    You can visit my blog for more related beauty information.

  269. My escape place has to be Red Warf Bay. Its a beautiful bay in Anglesey, Wales. Its so peaceful and remote however its only a few hours drive. Plus theres always new exciting things to discover there, wether its a secret beach or a old vintage shop. Definitely a place you'd love!

  270. Oh my gosh, all this looks so pretty I could cry! The little cottages and trees look like they came straight out of a story book. I'm definitely adding this to my bucket list – thanks!

  271. OMG, I was in the isle of wight, between the 4th-6th of March. The photography is amazing. I love the isle of wight, the atmosphere of it is so fresh and relaxing xo

  272. Absolutely love these photos! I would love to visit the isle of wight too. it just looks so peaceful. I don't get the chance of getting away from my busy life at all really but when i do get the chance to run and hide away for a while this is one of the places i'd love to visit :) Great post :)

  288. What a magical place Zoe!
    So true, and i have to say, i find great escape at home with all things cosy as well :)

  289. Saskia

    Even looking at these pictures makes me de-stress a little, they're gorgeous! I wish I had such a nice place to go to, but so far, no luck. Just gives me an opportunity to visit loads and loads of more places to find that one perfect spot for me, right?

  291. I've never been to the isle of wight, looks lovely though :)

  292. Oh I wish I had known about these wonderful places when I was still living in the UK.
    Now I'm back in icy Switzerland and even though I sometimes escape to the mountains for a weekend (I probably sound like a real Swiss-Heidi-Girl haha) I miss the beautiful hills and fields of Devon!
    Have a wonderful time and if you ever plan on visiting beautiful Switzerland – let me know!:)

  295. Hey Charlotte!

    Sounds like you really enjoyed your UK stay… I lived really close to Plymouth when I was having my "Gap-Year". Did you ever heard about a pretty little town called Totnes? If you liked Bath and Plymouth you would absolutely LOVE it there.:)
    Go there if you ever have the chance!

    Take care

  297. Love your pictures, i've never been to IOW but it looks lovely and would love to visit some day! The one place i escape to is Northumberland, Alnmouth in particular, love it there :)
    xx

  298. aw the pictures are such beautiful pictures! I agree Zoe, sometimes you do just need to get away! Since i can't drive and don't have any friends that can and living so far in-land it's sometimes hard to get away. So instead of physically going away, i let my mind go away. I either read or write because it just puts my mind into a whole new world that can be however i like.

    I'd love to visit the Isle of Wight though! it looks so beautiful and picturesque!

    i hope you have a good week Zoe!<3

  302. What magical photos Zoe! Thanks so much for sharing them with us. I hope you looked out for some woodland creatures for Louise. Were you able to put a few of them in your pocket? Love that you dressed up a bit in the photos as well.

  303. I am always blown away by your photography Zoe. It looks like you had a fantastic trip and I hope you found some peace of mind while there. We all need to sometime. I'm about to do it to – although my trip is slightly more drastic.
    I am from South Africa and will be jetsetting off to London for two months and in between I am doing a camping Contiki tour of most of Europe!!
    Sometimes we all need to get away ;)

  307. Really pretty pictures. I love England. I live in The Netherlands, and although I kinda like it, it's nothing compared to England. Love it!

  308. I've only been to the Isle of Wight once and that was with my school for a week when I was 11. It was an activity camp thing and I barely remember any of it. I should go and explore more sometime.

    When I'm stressed I will either go and stay with my friend, because we watch films and do crafty things and I find being creative really helps when I'm feeling stressed. Or I will also head over to the beach; which happens to be just over the road from my house. It's a gorgeous little beach that I adore. Music and the beach <3 I wish I had a car that I could just get in and drive.

    I utterly love your photos! I am glad you had a great time :D

  313. I'd love to go there Zoe! Next time I come to UK, I visit this place. It seems so calm ! I really need to be away from where I live for a while because I feel like I am a prisoner of my life :/ That is so sad to say because I have an amazing boyfriend (but I will take him with me when I will go away haha) and my life is not as sad as some people's lives but I don't know… I need to be away ^^ Thanks for sharing these amazing pictures with us Zoe :)

    I really loved this post. I totally agree you do need to take some timeout now and again else the stress level rocket through the roof. My family and I have been thinking of going to the Isle of Wight for a summer break for the past few years and now that I have read this I’m even more charmed by the look of the place. Thanks again for the lovely post.

  331. The IOW is literally a place that holds sooo many incredible childhood memories for me..noone understands how much I want to go back and visit!! I used to go every Easter for about 8 years running.. we had friends that went every year too! we used to stay in the savoy country club (Maybe you've heard of it??) and we would go swimming and go to the kids club then my brother (who is significantly older than me)worked in the bar and we used to go and see him :) amazing place.. need to visit in the summer :) xx

  332. like your bag!
    where you get this? :)

  333. I love this post Zoe, the Isle of White looks so pretty. Cornwall is my 'happy/relaxed' place, like you a lot of my happy childhood memories are there :) xxx

    It looks like such a serene place to visit. I don't have anywhere too near by for me to really escape to, so I usually just take about thirty minutes to an hour about twice a week for a nice long bath. That, or a museum visit can also really help me chill out. I hope you're feeling the calm that the Isle of Wight I'm sure has in abundance. xx

  335. awesome pics sweety!

  336. That looks so beautiful Zoe! I can't believe it's in the UK… I may just have to take some friends and go there myself for a couple of days in the summer. Thanks for sharing!!

    I'm from the U.S., but I originally found your dealing with panic attacks and anxiety video on youtube. I don't have panic attacks, but I had found myself anxious with something, and I didn't know what is was. I saw your video come up, and it really helped me! After that I checked out all of your videos, followed your blog, Tumblr, and everything else you post at the bottom of your videos. You are a very inspiring person, and I really appreciate you trying to help everyone who needs you. You actually inspired me to start a blog as well! You're a really sweet person, and there's never a bad thing to say about you. This post was calming, in a way. I like how you take the time to show us what happens in your life. I would love to talk with you sometime! Thanks for being, well, you! :)

    I love the Isle of Wight, Shanklin is beautiful. Has anyone ever been to the sweet making factory? Shows you how they make classic sweets like bonbons and mint humbugs.

  366. Zoe! Why do you have to be so pretty? Please make some more Youtube Vid's i am subscirbed to you!!

  367. Hi Zoe! I've recently started a new blog and I have mentioned you on the 'I recommend…' page. I was wondering if you'd like to take a look at it? And perhaps, if you like my blog, you might give it a mention somewhere? I'd love it if you did but I understand if you don't:) Still, enjoy looking at it:

    Thankyou xxx

  369. These photos are so beautiful! I live in Iceland and I think it's safe to say that my country is beautiful too. So MANY things and facts. I guess I need to write about that someday. Zoella, you would love Iceland, It's so unique in many ways. For example the Blue Lagoon! Does anyyone here know what it is? Has anyone perhaps been there? SO incredible. You should try it!

  371. YOU ARE STUNNING!!
    just wanted to ask you a quick question: what effect do you use on most of your photography? it is kind of a vintage effect and i love it!! i love everything about you and your style zoe, you are such a role model :-) xx

  372. Oh I wish I had known about these beautiful places when I was still living in the UK. Now I'm back in icy Switzerland and even though I sometimes escape to the mountains for a weekend (I probably sound like a real Heidi-Swiss-Girl haha) I miss the hills and fields of Devon.
    Have a wonderful time and if you're ever planning on coming to wonderful Switzerland – let me know!:)

  376. I love you so much Zoe, and you know what, i love your hair soooo so so much, i'd just love to coe into your house at night, cut it and take it to myself (well that sounds really creepy now, but this is supposed to show, how much i love them) :D

  379. Your blog, YouTube channel, style, friends and just your lifestyle in general has inspired me so much. I've been in love with your channel for so London and began reading your blog in January and it gave me the motivation to start my own one! I cannot explain how much you've actually changed me without even knowing me. You inspired me in my style, and made me so much more interested in make-up and gave me a bit of a wake up call to life. Thank you.

  380. What camera do you have Zoe????

  381. What camera do you have Zoe????

  382. Beautiful and lovely place! Plus the photos are gorgeous!

  383. Thanks so much for sharing Zoe! Lovely to hear your innermost thoughts :) Would you please do a blog about your favourite music? xo

  384. hayya, Zoe, i enjoy your blog so much and i also love your videos, you are so beautiful and you just know, how to write really awesome posts, about a week ago i started my own beauty/random blog to and you are definately my inspiration on that! <3

  385. Such a beautiful place:)

  388. Me and all of my massive family used to go every single year, and Black Gang Chine was my favourite place ever! I actually have a scar where I fell over in the maze once haha.

    I really love the pictures you've taken, they look like there from a holiday website ;) I've never been to the IOW but I'm going with my guide group during the summer holidays and this definitely got me excited!

  390. Lily

    I used to go to the Isle of White all the time when I was younger and I really need to go back there. It is a beautiful place

  391. hey zoella, its always been my dream to live in isle of Wight. weather im 62 or 26 i will live in a little thatched cottage :)
    please have a little wiz through my blog thanks love u :) :)
    ammyammy661.blogspot.co.uk/

  392. HELLO !
    I've been trying to follow your blog FOR AGES. Well…I think a month counts as ages, anyway. I only recently started watching your videos, but I can tell you I am a huge fan already. HUGE. You are so gorgeous, and you are so lucky to have such wonderful friends :) You're so pretty! And your brother is funny as well xd And you are too! And your friends ! I want to be your friend :( Haha :'D Sorry if I'm creeping you out, I'm trying my hardest not to. You're like a role model to me…you're always so positive and you're such a nice person, and your sense of fashion and humour are just enviable. You are a perfect role model. And it's always a good thing that you're a girl, since all my previous role models have been men….ok, that was a bit too much info, eh? Well, but I'm being honest with you! Where was I again..? Oh yes. So you have the honour to be my first "proper" role model…(I guess?) And another reason why I am so jealous of you is….can you guess already? YOUR HAULS. Yes, I have watched every single one…and while doing so, I've been drooling after all those gorgeous clothes you've bought. Worst part? I don't live in the UK. So I can't buy any of those things T__T So I guess it's not very healthy for me to watch those videos but i just can't resist. And sorry if I'm writing an essay again, it's just that I just envy you and…and…BOW DOWN TO YOU. You are beautiful ! x And I've got so much to say! I was actually planning on buying you this set of lip smackers, or you know…those different soft-drink flavoured lip balms? Like…vanilla coke, pineapple fanta? But then, I figured it would be really complicated to send them to you, so I should probably ask whether you can buy them in the UK already, because in one of your videos (I'm telling you I'm not a stalker at all >.<) you said you can't get them in the UK anymore, but that might have been like 2 years ago…I don't know..I should check. BUT, IF YOU CAN'T GET THEM, LET ME KNOW. I'll buy you a set and mail it to you! When is your birthday again? And…um….well, i can't send you lucky charms, we don't have them here. What else….OH YES. YOU HAVE INDEED NOTICED ME BEFORE, ON TWITTER…tehehehee…You favourited one of my tweets :) DUK (did you know) THAT TWEET WAS ACTUALLY MY FIRST TWEET (ADRESSED TO YOU) EVER! And you noticed it straight away! And in case you weren't aware, I consider you famous. So when you noticed me on Twitter, it was as exciting as if….Lady Gaga noticed me on twitter. SO you're like Lady Gaga to me. Fame-wise xd
    So….I guess what I'm trying to say is that I LOVE YOU (in a non-creeper wayyy!!) and you are an inspiration to me…a role model :) And I look up to you and I admire you ! :) But I'll leave it to this for today, I'll come back tomorrow to continue my essay xD
    Byeeeee and I hope to hear from you ! :) xx
    Polished Kiwi , @karinwilkko on twitter :) I also like your videos on youtube xD

    I'm a London girl and love escaping to the isle of wight to visit family there.
    The spy glass Inn in ventnor is lovely..right by the beach -great to have a drink there when the sun is setting- so relaxing x

  394. wow, i'd love to visit there!

  395. The pictures are so beautiful!xxx

    serenecouture.blogspot.co.uk

  396. Lauren

    It looks so perfect there xx

    ravingbeautyx.blogspot.co.uk

  397. i love the isle of Wight too, especially Godshill. i would recommend the Taverners in Godshill they do amazing food using local ingridents ( and make lush apple jucie!)

  398. Wow…really good photos! What camera do you use?:)

  400. Love the post. Made me relax a bit! Iowa is where I am from and on the eastern side there are many little river towns of the Mississippi that one can travel to by boat or by car.

  401. I'm so glad you had a great trip! I'm so jealous. I really need to get away and take a nice relaxation trip….if only. Beautiful pictures as always! I plan on visiting Isle of Wight sometime, and I'll be sure to visit every place there you mentioned! <3 Love you Zoe! If you checked out my blog trulivia.blogspot.com, that would mean the WORLD to me! I'm just starting and trying to get it to kick off. xxx

  403. AMANDA

    Galveston Island here in Texas is my IOW.

    It's a little under a 2 hour drive from me and growing up I only ever got to go about 4 times, but while my husband and I were dating we would drive at least every other weekend and get a cheap beach front hotel.
    -Sometimes a nice one if we had a little change to spare.

    (Though, don't tell my dad, he's a preacher, he thought I was working nights at the nursing home and crashing at my friends the next morning so I didn't have to make a long drive home!)

    Anyway I always feel completely relaxed there and could just walk the beach for days.

    We always go there on our anniversary now or any time we need to get away and just focus on each other.
    Even though the beach water isn't a lovely crystal clear blue but instead a murky grey(or brown…) I always feel warm inside when I think about My 6t3 husband letting 5ft1 me ride piggy back out over my head into the ocean and threatening to abandon me,then giving me a good ole salty saltwater kiss, ha!
    Why am I telling this to strangers?!

  406. I might be road-tripping to the isle of wight now! I've heard of it before but after your photographs it just looks so beautiful – I love it!!

    So when I start my camping / backpack tour of Europe next month I think isle of wight is going to be one of my destinations!

    http://www.bohemianmuses.blogspot.com

  407. It's so pretty there, hope to go there soon
    Faashstash.blogspot.co.uk

  408. Nope, but I'm going to visit Isle of Wight this summer! :)

  409. Amy

    it's so lovely seeing you talk about my little home! im from the isle of wight and i absolutely love it there! i go to college in london and it's sooo nice to come home for half terms back to my little island, like you said, to escape everything! glad you enjoyed yourself zoe, its so exciting to see that people love the island as much as i do :) xx

  413. Beautiful images Zoe, you should be so proud, looks fun! x

  414. That looks amazing and so pretty! I know how you feel. There's an island 3 hours away from where I live and its my favorite place in the world! Its so tiny! There's 1 shop, 1 pub, 1 restaurant and 200 people live there. Its where I've made my best friends and its always where I'm happiest :)

  415. Hi Zoella!
    Thank you for the lovely posting about my home !
    Anybody that is planning to visit the Isle of Wight etc can see some of the reviews about places I have visited, such as The West Bay Spa in Yarmouth and The Met Tapas Bar in Ventnor. I also do beauty reviews, lifestyle etc.

    thanks, love your blog and youtube! xx

  418. Love your pics Zoe! Looks like you had a great time! I haven't been to the Isle of Wight since I was teeny tiny so am well overdue a revisit!

    you're totally right about needing to get away sometimes, I get like that at times and just need to feel like i've recharged my batteries, then I'm back to my old self again!

    xx

  419. ohh wight is so pretty <3 i have a place like that to, just to go and relax. Its a little island in germany :)

  420. Wow beautiful pictures! I've always had a strange intrigue with model villages, the Isle of White looks absolutely gorgeous!

    This is the place I need to be in! I've been to one of the beaches there but by looking at these pictures I clearly haven't experienced the beauty of the Isle of Wight yet

  424. I love your posts <3

  426. Amara

  433. That place looks really nice! I hope one day I'll be able to get to visit the UK and maybe see IOW! Thanks for sharing the pictures!

    -Christine

  434. Wow the photos are amazing! X

  437. I love your photos! :)

  438. The coloring of the photos is absolutely gorgeous. Hopefully I'll get to visit Isle of Wight someday if I study abroad in England!

  439. OMG!This Place Looks so Nice ;)

  440. Gorgeous photos Zoe. I'm from Australia so I am always so jealous of your amazing British winters and sleepy towns. I think I am the same as you- an empty beach is amazing to think and escape on. I also have this very strange love for the beach in the middle of winter, when its cold, and dead and you can drink coffee and watch the waves roll in but have nobody on the receiving end of their force. Maybe they get lonely in winter too? Haha any way, killer blog post as always Miss Zoella. x

    Xx

  459. Hi Zoe : )
    I just want to say, I've just about read your blog from start to finish- I literally only have a few of your last entries before I've read every last one. You are a fantastic writer, and as I'm sure you are told all too often, completely gorgeous (enviably so).

    I just want to say thank you for putting so much time and effort into your writing, photography, and videos. It really shows, and makes it hard to stop reading and watching. If you haven't already, consider planning a book in the future!

    Looking forward to revisiting the UK in the future to see all this beautiful countryside that you've shown us

  460. Gahhh this is where my next spontaneous trip out of the US will be!!

  461. Karla

    That place looks lovely! I wish I could go away somewhere that looks like that. No where in the Canadian Prairies that can compare.

  462. The pictures look gorgeous! It looks so serene and lovely. If I would escape to anywhere it would probably be to Stockholm. I love cities and Stockholm just looks like a really eclectic city. I'm also quite interested in Swedish culture.

  468. Vivien

    These days I strongly feel the urge to escape this familiar place and travel the unknown, I really need a relief..
    Beautiful images :)

  469. Hiya,
    I live on the south coast in Bournemouth/Christchurch/Mudeford :)
    I've been to the Isle of Wight so many times, and must agree with the many memories and feeling chilled there bit!
    P.s. I love you (good film, not intentional haha)

  510. Hey Zoella, I love this post as sometimes when everything gets to me, as I don't have a beach near by I love just going to the park and just thinking and clearing my head. But now seeing this post I definitely want to visit the Isle of Wight now. I love brighton and Clacton as it holds alot of childhood memories for me there. Lizzie xxxx

  511. your photography is lovely :) its very much persuaded me to visit the Isle of Wight :D

  514. i love your beauty sense ill be extreamly happy if you could give me advice on my blog
    hope we can be online buddies :)

  515. One place I'd love to escape to is the Philippines ! :) there's soo many beaches, plus it's always sunny and there's an abundance of unique shops to purchase clothes at and the vibe's just really chill over there !

  516. ahhh I understand how you feel ! I'm basically landlocked where I live ! I wish I could just drive to a beach whenever I feel stressed and overwhelmed. . .

  517. Haven't been there for years. I always used to love Blackgang Chine, I'm remembering the snakes and ladders slides being awesome. Loved going to Brickfields too to see the horses. I remember us being really bored on Needles beach once so we buried our mum in pebbles :)

  518. What a beautiful little place to escape to! The shops and colors are all soo adorable. I'm from California.. I love to escape to the beach.. but need to find a lovely place like that to escape to. Thank you for sharing. :)

  519. You take such amazing pictures Zoella! I've been trying to get this sort of creativity in my pictures but not everyone has that talent, haha. I hope you had an amazing time! :)

    I am going to be honest, living in NZ i feel that the UK dosent really et the credit it deserves for its stunning landscape. ZOe, this is such a stunning post :)

  550. These are amazing pictures, and you're looking gorgeous as always!!
    I'm also from NZ, and still haven't found a perfect place like this, but a place that I do love to go is Eastbourne, which is across the harbour from where I live. I lived there for a few years as a kid and it's such a beautiful place!

  552. Dear Zoella

    I was born on the Isle of Wight. We moved from there to Australia when I was 2, and unfortunately never went back when I've been to England to visit family, my family find it quite boring, so we didn't end up checking it out. Now I wish I had. Oh well, next time I'm in England I'll make sure to do so :)

  581. Wow the place looks very beautiful and you are a cute girl :D

    Do you have a formspring? I found one that's supposedly you but I was wondering if it was fake because you never link it anywhere :-)

  583. Dear Zoe, I live in the United Kingdom but I have never visited there. Your photos make me feel like I am missing out! I agree that everyone needs some time to themselves and away from work every now and then. Have a wonderful Easter! Xox Laura xox

  584. The photos you have taken are stunning

  585. Megan

    I love this post, it makes me want to re-visit all the places I went to as a child and had happy memories at! :) And the photos are so gorgeous, you're really talented Zoe :) x

I can imagine its so lovely to just sit and watch the sun set :-) I love your blog Zoe! http://kierstenduke.blogspot.co.uk/

  599. hi zoe it looks like your having fun over there

  603. Dear Zoe,
    once again you nourished my wish to visit England again. I'd love to see the Isle of Wight. When I need to escape from the world, I just grab a good book, some chocolate and go into the forest to read.
    Have a lovely day!
    xx

  604. that seems to be a very nice place! I hope to have the chance to visit there!! Hello from Hong Kong! :)

  614. Such beautiful scenery. All very nice. And you Zoe is also very beautiful :3

  615. I love your blog and I read every post! The photos you have taken are really great. I have never been to the Isle of Wight, but I may go net summer with my family. You are a huge inspiration to me and my friends. I can't begin to explain how much I look up to you. Keep doing what you are doing. xx

  616. I have never been to the Isle of Wight but after watching your snaps I really feel it's a beautiful places I must visit one day :)

  617. Such beautiful photo's. haven't been to the Isle of Wight in years, definitely want to visit again soon after reading this post.

    Charlotte xx

  618. This actually looks like the nicest place. I also love love that pink skirt you're wearing in one of your pictures. Where did you get it?

  619. Hi, new follower here from the Philippines. I absolutely enjoyed your youtube videos-was searching for what's in my bag videos when yours came up and I really enjoyed your bubbly character and actually finished the video unlike most who bore me to death in the middle:-) I've always hoped one day I could visit UK-just had too many places in my bucketlist that I wanna go too like the Isle and Cornwall etc.

  620. All of your posts make me smile!x

  623. Love this post Zoe!! I've been watching your videos for a while and now reading your blog-I have to say, I love them both!! xx

  624. I go to the Isle of Wight almost every summer with my family. I went last year and I am looking forward to going this year again. It is also a childhood memory for me coming here its so beautiful in every place and I have many great memories. It usually takes about 6 hours to drive down to Southampton from where I live in South Yorkshire and then an hour on the ferry and its well worth it. I love going to the little villages like Shanklin and Godshill just to walk around and I know what you mean about the chocolate island stuff I remember I got one of those huge lollipops hehe it was yummy! It's a lovely getaway from the big cities and its a beautiful place to spend time with family! :)xo

  625. Caty

    Love the photos! I'm going on vacation in a couple of weeks and this post just made me all the more excited! :)

  626. That's really pretty! I love the pictures of the village! Is it a real village or is it more like a themed place? Where is that exact place? My sister and i and perhaps my bf would love to visit that place <3

  649. The Isle of Wight holds great childhood memories for me too :) I too always loved Black Gang Chine as well as the Brading Waxwork Museum and creating little bottles of coloured sand at the Needles Park. There's something about the island that always seems sunny :) Another place I love to escape to is Salcombe, Devon – so beautiful, so many memories :) x

  653. Looks lovely (if a little cold)..

    Living in London, we're always so caught up in the Rat Race, but we really do need to take some time out sometimes for ourselves.. Deffo taking leaf out of your book and booking me a flight! Haha!

  665. Hi ^_^
    I can't be certain, but I think I went to the Isle of Wright just last year, did you have to take this sort of fancy boat which flies on the water? I went there for a day and I found the area so lovely :D we visited the town and although it was a hot day and there was a lot of walking but I loved how old fashioned the buildings were and the icecream was tasty :') xxx

  666. I like the necklace on the fifth picture down.

    Anyone know where i can get it?

  704. Aw I love the Isle of Wight so much! Used to go there all the time when I was younger and my absolute favourite place was Blackgang Chine – I've heard a load of it has fallen into the sea now / had to be removed so it doesn't fall into the sea because it's so close to the edge of a cliff though :(

    – Elisabeth

  711. very interesting photos and great blog ;)

  713. Zoella your so inspiring! Sadly I have never been to the isle of white, but I definitely plan on going at some point after reading your post and looking at all the wonderful photos! x

  715. I love BlackGang Chine, I've only been there once but I remember it so well. The Isle Of Wight is such a lovely place!

  717. how wow this place is gorgeous!! I wish we had a old town like this in Canada :( well one that is closer to my home town:P

  718. Yes! I'm from the United States. If you google Minnesota, you'll find the state on a map. There's a small town where my grandma lives. That's my IOW! Haha.

  719. Zoe, you are truly an inspiration to me, than you so much.

  721. Hey, I am Duru from Turkey. I am new with this blogging stuff, but I want to say that Zoe is my inspiration to start it. Even though she says the opposite, I found her very self-confident. Keep going Zoe. You are the best! :)

  723. The Isle of Wight is my favorite place! I've been every summer holiday since I was born, but it takes us about 4 hours to get there. The scenery is amazing and is so beautiful, my favorite part of the year :)

  725. am currently planning another overseas holiday. after these gorgeous photos, i might have to add this to my 'places to visit asap'. gorgeous!

  727. I grew up on the Isle of Wight and I do miss my daily walks on the beach with no one else around. Now I can't live too far from the sea otherwise I get withdrawal symptoms. I'm glad you love it there

  728. This is such a beautiful blog(: Its nice to have a getaway from life sometimes! and the pictures you've taken are gorgeous!

    dontcoralwithme.blogspot.com

  729. Where did you go on the Isle of Wight? xxx

  730. Where were you when you went (what village on the isle of Wight)?

  731. Would you recommend to go/stay anywhere/ any village?

  732. Wish that I could just drop everything and start travelling too! Unfortunately life just keeps getting in the way >:(

    Photos look so stunning and unreal :)

  733. Looking at all these beautiful photos I've never wanted to visit England so badly in my life! Escape days are the best <3

  734. Hi Zoella,
    You are so inspiring and such a great role model to us all, you have helped me through so rough times and you make me laugh when i watch your videos. You are the reason i brought myself build confidence and start my own blog and really hope you could take time out have a look at my blog, i only started it today so there's only four posts. I hope you enjoy my blog as much as you enjoy yours. lots of love, Sophie xxx

  735. One of the places I've been to here in the states that is similar, in my opinion, to the Isle of Wight is Fire Island in New York. It's a quaint little beach town that is quiet and peaceful and incredibly beautiful, but also a little rugged and.. for the lack of a better word, edgy. All in all, it's one of my favorite places to go to when I visit New York. So many memories have been made there.

    I absolutely love the photos you took. It looks like such a sweet village. I definitely would like to visit there one day.

  736. I remember going there when I was 9 or 10, that's the only time I've ever been to the UK. But it was lovely :) My mom has been a couple of times and since I have a lot of family there, I hope to go back and visit soon :)

    Lovely pictures!

  737. Dear Zoella,
    your blog and youtube channel has inspired me to do different things and to broaden my perspective. Hahaha all I knew before starting my own blog was the life a very studious high school student who really only saw the world in one perspective. I love all your posts and videos you always say how shy you are (as am i) but since doing posts and videos i can really see your confidence shine. You are stunning and so down to earth; when i leave school i'd love to grow up to be more like you.
    From Australia with Love
    Carol xx

  738. Hey you are stunning I wish I looked like you hehe. I love your blog and your youtube your are so funny do you have any tips for me as I also have my own blog and would love if you could give me some tips to make it as good as yours thanks.Oh and I love your accent if I had it I would never shut up im from Ireland by the way x

  740. That pink skirt is to die for! Also, the views are just breathtaking. Looks like your contributing to promote tourism!!

    Loving all of the fashion blogs on here, would love to check more of them out! http://www.chictrends.co.uk

  742. The pictures are beautiful, I absolutely love the IOW, I spent so much time there as a child on the beaches, walking and on the water, I haven't been to Blackgang Chine in years though, I used to love all the massive animals and dinosaurs, the maze and the western village oh and I think I remember some kind of log flume, there are lots of very 90's pics of my brother there, very embarrassing! My grandmother lives on the Island so we would spend our summers there visiting her going to the beach and fossil hunting, sailing and cycling, we used to keep the boat in Yarmouth it's such a lovely place. My Grandma still lives in Cowes but I think you see places like that in a much more magical sense when you are younger, saying that nothing can take away my love for the place, it is a lovely place to escape all you have to do is jump on the Red Jet or the Red Funnel. I love going off on little trips but for the last six months or so I haven't been very well and it has really exacerbated my anxiety so I haven't been able to.

  743. Your blog posts have given me so many new places to travel to when I move to Europe this fall! Thanks! :)

  744. Heyyy, i've only just got a blog and i got one mainly to see yours, I just spent like 10 minutes trying to figure out how to comment then i realised all i had to do was scroll to the bottom haha i need help on here!! love your blogs!

  745. You take nice pictures! And
    thanks for the hotspots suggestions!

    xx

  746. heyy we watch your videos and love you you are so so pretty the photos were fabulous and your boots haul video was one of our favorite videos by you so far x

  747. zoe you should go for some modeling jobs your beautiful!

    come on zoe! post another post! Dont take your followers for granted xx :) and dont give up.

  749. I Live on the Isle of Wight! This is so strange, I followed a link from another blog onto your page and the first thing I see is my pretty little village! (shanklin)

    If you ever want to find a new hideaway let me know and I'll tell you some of the cute little places that are pretty secret!

  750. Heya, I love reading through your posts, you seem so lovely and you're gorgeous! (you probably get that a lot, but you really do seem like an amazing person!) Anyway, thought I'd comment because oh my goodness; Black Gang Chine was my FAVOURITE place in the world when I was younger! I used to go there every summer, bit of nostalgia in the air for me! The picture of the Rock shop you've posted is where I bought my first piece of rock and I was so excited (though I did bite into it so hard it gave me a wobbly tooth ha!) a tad random lol. Anyway thank you for sharing this post, it's brought back so many childhood memories :-) xxxx

  751. I love your blog and your YouTube clips. Really nice pics.

  755. What do you edit your pictures with?x

  757. I'm too from NZ and I also wish there was a place like this here. :)

  758. Hi! I loved your photos. The beach is so similar to some here in Portugal! :)
    I really need to escape to the Isle of Wight someday… For now, the sunset in Leça da Palmeira is the one for me.

  760. making me homesick ! <3

  761. Hi Zoella,
    Your description about escaping every once in a while is beautiful and utterly true.
    I'm glad you had time to de-stress and visit childhood memories.
    I am definitely tempted to escape to the Isle of Wight and just reflect on its beauty someday.
    I actually don't have a place to escape to, a place that would block out the piling troubles of life, but I would love to find a place someday. So far, my ultimate places to escape to are my Harry Potter books, haha.

  762. Also, your pictures are absolutely stunning! They make me feel like I'm a hungry kid walking into a chocolate factory.

  763. Hey, Zoella! Your blog is amazing, i really love it! Me and my friend also write a blog about fashion, beauty and every day life. Check it out http://www.brunettetrend.com

  770. Thank you for being super beautiful and entertaining. I love your blog and your YouTube, you have been really helpful and your make up is inspired. I would love to go to the Isle of Wight some day after seeing those pictures x

  771. I definitely going to see if I can go there sometime this year, it looks incredible. I love your blog and all of your pictures are amazing!

  772. I have a weird place I like to escape i like to go to the woods with my dog. like on a hike. No people. no nagging or chores and you don't need to worry what you look like. Its so calming. Once you find a tree with a good nook or one you climb and sit in a branch I just play some music and bring a book. Its nice. and my dog scares away animals like wolfs and such.

  773. Loved the pictures! This post reminded me of how overdue I am on some get away time! My favorite thing to do is just drive around, and go wherever life takes me.. which in Iowa isn't usually as amazing as this beautiful place, but I still love the adventure!

  795. Hey i live on the Isle of Wight, I would love to see you sometime here :)

  797. Hi, I'm new to the whole blogging world and stumbled along this post first and I absolutely love it! I have just started up my own blog as I suffer from an anxiety disorder and depression and have found writing an amazing outlet to express my emotions! I'm just blogging about all the things that make me happy, such as trips to English beaches! and keeping a list of the things that have a negative impact on my life so I can avoid them! its very scary to put my feelings out there but im eager to eliminate the stigma surrounding mental illnesses and want people to understand the thought processes behind the crazy things I do! any support, advice, promotion of my blog would be much appreciated! best wishes! x Charlotte

  801. I live on the Isle of Wight and its one of the best places I've ever lived. the beaches are amazing especially to the west side of the island. The places you end up if you just go on a drive is amazing down to the cute little villages and the breath taking views. I hope you come back soon because me and all my friends love your videos and would love to meet you :) xox

  804. This looks heavenly , would love to visit !

  806. I love the isle of Wight! I went there quite a few times when I was younger and every time my family and I went we always went to blackgang chine. It is honestly one of my favourite places ever! I really want to go back there soon, even more now because I saw you vlog when you went :) x

  807. you have the most amazing fashion sense! Hopefully one day i'll have a collection half as nice as yours x

  808. I love the Isle of Wight, my gran lives not to far from there on the mainland so my family and used to go there quite a bit but we haven't been in ages…really want to go again

  809. Omg! My best friend works in The rock shop! I can't believe I missed you :'( Would have been amazing to finally meet you!

  810. YES I've been there 4 or 5 times already and going again tomorrow! It's relaxing, peaceful and bliss :)

  811. Heyy, I live on the Isle of Wight, I definately recognise your photos and the places you visited. I recently visited black gang chine and they have some new activities and entertainment which I would definately advise you check out. It was a great day out and can't wait to re-visit. I do love living here although it is expensive to get off the island and wish we had more shops like primark. Be sure to visit my Blog. :) xxx

    Wow Zoe, I didn't realise you visit the IOW! I've been there for the past 7 years with my family and it's lovely there. We stay in a little holiday chalet right on the edge of a cliff in a place inbetween Freshwater and Yarmouth. It's really weird seeing the picture of the rock shop- I go there every year, it's like a tradition! Also- Blackgang chine! I love it there. I'm still terrified of the rumpus mansion haunted house thingy even though I've been there many times!

  814. I totally agree, sometimes you need a break to just sit back and appreciate everything. :)

  815. I am very lucky to live on the isle of wight, and you have truely summed up how beautiful it is. I live in Chale green which is 5 mintutes up the road from blackgang :) Also, fun fact. You may have noticed there is a little house next to blackgang chine, well when i was little my best friend lived there, and she could go into blackgang whenever she wanted, i was very lucky to go in there when it wasn't open, and it was so much fun. Thank you Zoe for this post, made me very proud of my little home town :)

  816. This is perfect! Lately I've been doing the same thing to take the stress away. I'm from Australia and we have some beautiful beaches that are literally two minutes from where I live. I love driving with mates and following the coast line and feeling the energetic bolt of freedom. These are the types of things so simple but make life spectacular!

    Such an amazing place it looks so beautiful!!Always wanted to go the Isle of Wight its so pretty the nature is amazing there!U really escape when goin to such a place!

  818. The isle of wight is my favourite place ever! Me and my family have gone every year since I was about 3, nowadays I spend most of my summer down there, a week or two in a rented house and a few days camping. We just can't get enough of it! I've been at least 18 times or so, I love it! It feels like my second home!

  822. I live in NZ too, but I reckon its pretty darn beautiful down here too! I mean, we have like every time of element here! Mountains, forests, desert, ocean… what more could you want :)

  823. Golly I'm utterly jealous of this gorgeous little town. I live in the States and nothing here compares to the beauty of Europe. Enjoy the peacefulness of your surroundings. Thank you for bringing such gorgeousness to the eyes of a distant fellow blogger.

  825. When I lived in Scotland, there was many places you could go to "get away from it all" for a bit. There was about 10 beaches all within a 5-10 minute drive from my house. Living in England there isn't much apart from maybe Southend … not really a beach though as its mostly stones and pebbles!

    I used to go to the Isle of Wight all the time when I was younger! I don’t really remember too much of it, but I know there are plenty of pictures from visiting Godshill! I’d love to go again, see how much I actually remember and experience it again :)

  833. River Strong

    Zoe I don’t know what I would do without you. Without you I would think I was crazy I used to think I was crazy until I watched you vids on panic attacks and anxiety. This blog post is perfect because now I will go there again (I haven’t been there since I was like 10) for my birthday (the 28th of March). You’re amazing!
