I think four days is too much for the IoW. You'd want to head back as soon as you got there.

Turn left off the ferry, head towards Ryde keep going round the island, you'll be back on the ferry in an hour.

With 4 days, go to Wales. Wales is great. You'll love Wales (assuming you don't drown). You could spend more than 4 days in Wales quite happily, but 4 days is a good amount of time for Wales. That's it. Go to Wales Smile

Potholes, shit horrible roads, too much traffic and an overpriced ferry to get there. Ignore the IoW. Try Wales as ChickenStrip says, or the Isle of Mann. Still an overpriced ferry but better roads, less traffic and its better!

I sometimes have to go to 'the island' for Work, it's kinda shit and best avoided.

Am going 8/9 Aug for one night. It's very small. Not a lot to see.... burgers however...burgers. Thumbs Up

One road I know of you can do 170 down but that could be a faulty speedo Wink
