A travel destination website has placed the Isle of Wight in the top three of holiday hotspots this Easter.

Big Travel 7, working with global comparison site EnjoyTravel.com has released a list of the 15 best UK destinations, with the Island proudly at number three ahead of Dorset, Brighton and the Cotswolds.

Based on special Easter events and the average cost of stay and family-friendly activities, only London and Glasgow were placed higher than the Island.

Will Myles, MD at Visit Isle of Wight said:

"The Isle of Wight has a host of incredible attractions offering a range of activities and some fantastic accommodation for families, so we’re not surprised to be placed this high in the Big Travel 7 top ten this Easter.

"Visit Isle of Wight continues to work with our partners here on the Island to reach as many people with our marketing messages."
