Competition! Win an Away Resorts Isle of Wight Holiday Worth £750

17/8/2024

18 Comments

 
Beach at Whitecliff Bay Holiday Park
The winner can choose from four resorts, including Whitecliff Bay Holiday Park...
Accommodation at Whitecliff Bay Holiday Park
...which has a range of lodges, caravans and quirky accommodation
It's competition time, and we reckon it's our best competition ever (to be fair, we've only done about three in the last eleven years).
 
We are giving away an Away Resorts holiday on the Isle of Wight worth up to £750.
 
The prize is for a three night stay at an Away Resorts holiday park on the Isle of Wight and is for up to six people. The holiday needs to be taken by 31st September 2025 and is valid during all dates except between 17th July and 31st August.
 
You can choose from any of the four Away Resorts parks on the Isle of Wight:

  • Whitecliff Bay Holiday Park
  • The Bay Colwell
  • The Lakes Rookley
  • St Helens Coastal Resort

To enter, you need to go to the relevant post on Facebook, Instagram or TikTok. You need tag a friend and complete this phrase:
 
"The first thing I would do on the Isle of Wight is..."
 
We will choose one winner at random from all the entries we receive on Facebook, Instagram and TikTok by Sunday 25th August 2024.
 
We will then pass your details to Away Resorts, who will get in touch to arrange your holiday.
 
As with all competitions, we are aware that there is a risk of scammers turning up to ruin the fun. We will try to stop this happening, but please don't click on links that are posted in the comments claiming that you've won. We will announce the winner on the original post on the day after the competition ends and will ask you to send an email to hello (at) isleofwightguru.co.uk.
 
Here are the full terms and conditions:
 
Maximum prize value of £750. Prize must be booked by an adult, over the age of 18. Off-peak periods only (on peak dates are between 17th July and 31st August). Travel, meals, and additional activities are not included. Maximum six people. Guest passes for facilities and entertainment will be included for each member of the booking. Pet friendly and hot tub options available upon request. If the holiday is cancelled less than two weeks prior to the arrival date, then it will not be rescheduled, and the prize will be lost. Applicable to The Bay Colwell, St Helens, The Lakes Rookley or Whitecliff Bay. Full booking T&Cs apply and can be found at www.awayresorts.co.uk/terms-conditions. Subject to availability. Prize must be booked and taken before 31st September 2025.

Here's our comparison of the four Away Resorts on the Isle of Wight, including advice on location and value for money.

The first thing I would do on the Isle of Wight is drive straight off the ferry in Yarmouth to Colwell Bay for breakfast in the Captain's Cabin. We have done this every year for the last 15 years! My daughter was 2 when we first did this and she is now 17 and it has become our signature way to start our holiday.
