Local Area Information

Godshill is one of the most photographed villages on the Island. It is quintessentially English with thatched cottages, tearooms and gift shops…and of course the amazing Model Village!

The village has 2 pubs and a restaurant – all within easy walking distance of The Old Vicarage Apartment. Nearby towns and villages also boast some great eating places and we are happy to point you in the right direction based on our experiences!

For the self-caterers the local shop provides the basics, with Sainsburys and Morrisons in Newport or Tescos a 30-minute drive to Ryde.
