Family-run inn with commanding views over the English Channel, 10 minutes' walk from Blackgang Chine

The Wight Mouse Inn sits on the grassy downs of Chale, commanding far-reaching views over the English Channel. The inn is a 10-minute walk from Blackgang Chine amusement park and offers direct access to spectacular coastal walks. Nearby towns like Newport and Shanklin are within a 20-minute drive of the inn.

The on-site restaurant serves fresh seasonal dishes, with a specials board that changes every few days and includes homemade pies.

Guests can also order the Ploughman's Sharer for two, a menu item that includes two cheeses, ham, pâté, and pork pie.

The large garden and terrace include a children's playground with swings and slides overlooking the sea. A dedicated children's menu offers more than the usual four items, with options like macaroni cheese and child-sized fish and chips. The inn provides cot and highchair facilities, and the family rooms accommodate up to six guests.
