Queen Victoria and Prince Albert bought Osborne in 1845 and it was used as a family home for over 50 years, the Queen finding solace there after Albert’s death in 1861. She said that “it is impossible to imagine a prettier spot.”

You’ll be able to visit Victoria and Albert’s private apartments and, weather permitting, their bathing beach and their children’s play cottage, and get an intimate glimpse of royal family life in the 19th Century.

The price of £59 (£40.15 for English Heritage members) includes coach travel to & from Southampton, Red Funnel ferry to & from the Island, bus transport from East Cowes to Osborne & return, tour of the house & grounds, & driver’s gratuity.  

 

There will be time for a quick lunch before the tour at one of the five food outlets, or you may wish to bring your own lunch.
