My wife and I will spend two or three nights on the Isle of Wight in June.
I've just begun to investigate the trip. Please recommend B&Bs and
attractions. I prefer accommodation in rural or village B&Bs rather than
towns. Many thanks.

Latest Festival News

With the Isle of Wight Festival now approaching its sixth successive
year, in recent months the rumour mill has gone into overdrive here on
the Island as speculation as to who will be performing at this highly
acclaimed event reached new heights.

However, the worst of the wait is now over as this week Promoter John
Giddings from Solo announced the names of 10 bands who have agreed to
perform at the Isle of Wight Festival 2007 during the weekend of
8th-10th June.

This year's festival will bring together some of the finest live acts
of our time, including performances by the biggest selling band of
2006, Snow Patrol (Friday headliners) and Best Live Act Brit Award
winners Muse (Saturday headliners).

Kings of the rock 'n' roll scene Kasabian will appear as special live
guests on the Saturday whilst GQ's Band of the Year Keane will wow the
50'000 strong crowd as they take to the stage as special guests on
Sunday.

Also appearing on the line up throughout the weekend are Best British
Female Brit Award winner Amy Winehouse, Best British Male Brit Award
winner James Morrison and Best British Breakthrough Brit Award winners
The Fratellis together with a host of the hottest newcomers around
including Paolo Nutini, Wolfmother and The Feeling. With more acts to
be announced including the Sunday night headliner, the Isle of Wight
Festival is set to be sizzling this summer!

Please ensure that you keep referring to the official Isle of Wight
Festival website for the very latest information.

Why was it a narrow escape? The festival is held on the outskiirts of
Newport. Newport town centre - eg Macdonalds and Morrisons will be
extremely busy in the mornings, The Fairllee road going towards the site has
traffic restrictions., The rest of the Island is mostly unanaffected.
In fact you'd probably find that the the island seems quieter than usual
because "everyone" is at the Festival!! :-)
