Bembridge Windmill
Recommended by
Overview
Built around 1700, this is the only surviving windmill on the island and has much of its original machinery intact. It was last used in 1913, and the stone-built tower, with its wooden cap and machinery, has been restored so that visitors can explore its four floors. The mill also provides breathtaking views across glorious, unspoilt countryside.

About the area
Small and intimate – at just 23 miles by 13 miles, the Isle of Wight is a popular holiday destination; with its mild climate, long hours of sunshine and colourful architecture, it has something of a continental flavour. Visitors can walk along the island’s varied coastline using the well-established Coast Path or step back in time to explore the island’s history at some of the forts and castles.
