What's on at The Grange By The Sea...

The Grange Christmas dancing.

Shanklin, Isle of Wight: tinsel is creeping into the village shops and Santa's grottos are already popping up here and there. Christmas seems to be approaching fast, some would say too fast, and The Grange Team is getting excited about it! We can't help but shout about the fun Christmas and New Year events that are coming up at The Grange, the place so many have described as 'home from home'. 



If you have already made your plans for Christmas, you may still fancy a short break beforehand. Perhaps a restorative yoga weekend that is coming up soon and is suitable for all levels. It's taught by the wonderful Ken Eyerman. Plus there's an upbeat, moving and grooving Salsa weekend with the energising John Harris, suitable for both absolute beginners and intermediate levels of dancer. 



With AA rated Four Star Guest Accommodation, The Grange is the perfect place to spend a weekend relaxing before the Christmas rush begins. Please do not hesitate to contact us on 01983 867644 regarding information on any of the weekend courses or to reserve your place on our festive breaks.

An offshoot of Skyros, the leading course based holiday, The Grange in Shanklin on the Isle of Wight offers weekend courses, events and 4-star guest accommodation as listed in the AA's Best British B&B Guide. Nestled in greenery, it is very secluded. Yet it's only moments from the Old Village with its thatched pubs and cosy tearooms, the local train station, shops and restaurants and, best of all, the long sandy beach. Isle of Wight breaks at The Grange have it all!
