Isle of Wight Winter Photos of Previous Years

Saturday, December 17th, 2011

We think every season is beautiful on the Isle of Wight and winter is no exception. This year we have had a warmer run up to Christmas but in the past we have had beautiful picture post card scenes covered in a thick blanket of soft snow.

Here are some of the photos we have gathered over the years of the Isle of Wight under the snow.
