Ventnor (/ˈvɛntnər/) is a seaside resort and civil parish established in the Victorian era on the south east coast of the Isle of Wight, England. It is situated south of St Boniface Down, and is built on steep slopes leading down to the sea. The higher part is referred to as Upper Ventnor (officially Lowtherville); the lower part, where most amenities are located, is known as Ventnor. Ventnor is sometimes taken to include the neighbouring settlements of St. Lawrence and Bonchurch.

The Ventnor Exchange is the town's unique creative hub. Located in a former Post Office the building now houses a studio theatre, record store and craft beer bar with over 50 guest beers. It's the best place on the Island to catch innovative new work, as well as the perfect place to browse vinyl, meet friends and relax with like minded people. The Ventnor Exchange is also the HQ for the annual Ventnor Fringe.

We ate here last night. We were late as we got lost! Worth the walk! The food was excellent. Pasta, fish, steak and pizza on offer. The food was fantastic. Lovely quirky venue.

Steephill cove is a beautiful Hidden gem. With its ever changing beach of sand, shingle and fantastic rock pools it is no wonder that families return here year after year. Over the years Steephill has become a hot spot to eat as well. Cove Coffee Shop with Home made cakes, light lunches, ice cream, sweet treats and more along with gorgeous goodies to buy for you and your home (Hoodies, Tee shirts, mugs, body lotions, creams, hand wash, candles etc with the amazing Cove logo) The Crab Shed serving fresh crab pasties. The Beach Shack serving fare (all only open during the daytime hours). Steephill can only be reached by foot which adds to its safety and pure Charm... A true gem of old fashioned English seaside. A must visit for anyone on the island!
We stayed in Steephill Cove in delightful accommodation just off the beach. Myself and my two grown up sons, we explored the coastal path past the Botanical Gardens all the way along the coast and round to the far side of St Lawrence and walked back via the road route, some amazing views along the sea path and some interesting Victorian architecture on the road return route, it took about 1.5 hr. On the Sunday we walked into Ventnor from the Cove along the coastal path, it takes about 35 minutes with some steep steps but well worth it and a reward of a pint outside the Spyglass inn.
