Celebrity Getaway on the Isle of Wight

It isn't a problem for many of us but being photographed by the paparazzi or having to face penetrating questions from morning television hosts must become very tiring and send you reaching for the holiday brochures. You would want something luxurious enough to impress when you tell your celebrity friends at the next magazine launch and quiet enough that you can escape the attention of the press.

With this in mind we have picked out a few places that will be very suitable.

Monks Path near Brighstone offers a quiet location with a large private garden which is safe from all but the very longest of long lens photographers. The secluded swimming pool gives you a chance to swim without worrying about displaying normal signs of ageing on the front page of the tabloids. To top it off this 5 star Gold Award holiday retreat is luxurious enough to brag about at any society drinks night with fellow celebs and football stars. - islandcottageholidays.com/isleofwight/cottages/monkspath/

The Beach House in Seaview may be more the scene for a sociable celebrity who doesn't mind mixing with the society in this up Market seaside resort. The Beach House offers the best accommodation in town and inspires the admiration of companions at the Michelin Star rated restaurant nearby. When relaxing at this 5 star Gold Award property you have a choice of admiring the sea from the balcony, your bedroom or ...well any room in the house actually. The beach is only a hop skip and jump from the end of the garden and the sea is pleasant for bathing. In the evenings there is plenty of space to enjoy dinner and drinks with friends or head down to your private cinema to take in a film. - islandcottageholidays.com/isleofwight/cottages/beachhouse/

Orchard Bay House near Ventnor & St Lawrence maybe the ultimate celebrity holiday home on the Isle of Wight. This large 5 bedroom house is placed along the entire length of Orchard Bay and is probably the most luxurious holiday home on the Isle of Wight. The 5 star Gold Award rating barely does this holiday home justice with its fantastic location, exquisite interior and array of facilities. Provided a celebrity visitor could keep their holiday plans a secret they would be very unlikely to be disturbed at this idyllic retreat. - islandcottageholidays.com/isleofwight/cottages/orchardbay/

For the rest of us who don't have the dubious pleasure of being famous these Isle of Wight holiday homes are still available to enjoy a luxurious holiday away in peace and tranquillity and you can find more at our Luxury Isle of Wight Holiday Homes page.
