Who is the Isle of Wight Guru?
Isle of Wight Guru was founded by former BBC journalist Robbie Lane, who has an unwavering passion for the Isle of Wight, and for saving money.
It aims to give impartial and unofficial advice to holidaymakers who want to know how to save money on the ferry, which are the best beaches, where to find unusual or cheap accommodation, things to do with teenagers, toddlers and children and so on.
Robbie isn't a caulkhead, but he grew up on the Isle of Wight in Newport and Carisbrooke and spent most of his teenage years at Compton Bay. More recently he has become a proper grown up with a real wife and children and everything, and has rediscovered many of the brilliant things on offer for younger visitors to the Isle of Wight.
The website is a joint effort with family, friends and random people who get in touch with suggestions. Mrs Guru does lots of social media stuff and all the boring bits which Robbie forgets to do.
Robbie has also worked with Visit Isle of Wight and Visit Shanklin on copywriting and blogs and is available for weddings and bar mitzvahs.
