Ventnor
Ventnor is a seaside resort and civil parish established in the Victorian era on the south-east shore of the Isle of Wight, England, eleven miles (18 kilometres) from Newport. It is located south of St Boniface Down, and built on steep inclines leading to the sea. The higher component is described as Upper Ventnor (officially Lowtherville); the lower part, where most features lie, is referred to as Ventnor. Ventnor is occasionally required to consist of the neighboring and older settlements of St Lawrence and also Bonchurch, which are covered by its community council. The population of the parish in 2016 was about 5,800. Ventnor came to be very fashionable as both a wellness and also holiday resort in the late 19th century, described as the 'English Mediterranean' and also 'Mayfair by the Sea'. Medical advances throughout the very early the twentieth century decreased its function as a health resort and, like other British seaside resorts, its summertime vacation profession endured the transforming nature of travel during the latter part of that century. Its relatively protected area underneath the hilly chalk downland creates a microclimate with even more sunny days and fewer frosts than the remainder of the island. This enables several types of subtropical plant to thrive; Ventnor Botanic Garden is especially noteworthy. Ventnor keeps a strongly Victorian personality, has an energetic arts scene, as well as is reclaiming popularity as a place to go to.
