Ventnor
Ventnor is a seaside resort as well as civil parish established in the Victorian period on the south-east coastline of the Isle of Wight, England, eleven miles (18 kilometres) from Newport. It is situated south of St Boniface Down, and also built on steep slopes leading to the sea. The higher component is described as Upper Ventnor (formally Lowtherville); the lower part, where most services lie, is called Ventnor. Ventnor is in some cases required to include the close-by as well as older settlements of St Lawrence and Bonchurch, which are covered by its community council. The population of the parish in 2016 was about 5,800. Ventnor became incredibly fashionable as both a health as well as holiday resort in the late 19th century, referred to as the 'English Mediterranean' as well as 'Mayfair by the Sea'. Medical advances during the early twentieth century reduced its duty as a health resort as well as, like other British seaside resorts, its summertime holiday trade experienced the transforming nature of travel throughout the last part of that century. Its relatively sheltered place beneath the sloping chalk downland creates a microclimate with more sunny days and also less frosts than the remainder of the island. This enables numerous types of subtropical plant to thrive; Ventnor Botanic Garden is specifically noteworthy. Ventnor keeps a highly Victorian character, has an active arts scene, and also is regaining appeal as a place to see.
