Welcome to Hillis Corner

Hillis Corner is a small village located on the Isle of Wight, an island off the south coast of England. The village is situated in the west of the island, close to the town of Freshwater. Hillis Corner is a quiet and peaceful place, surrounded by beautiful countryside and stunning coastal views. The village is home to a small community of residents, many of whom have lived in the area for generations.

One of the main attractions of Hillis Corner is its proximity to some of the Isle of Wight's most beautiful beaches. The village is just a short drive from Freshwater Bay, a picturesque cove with clear blue waters and golden sands. The bay is popular with swimmers, surfers, and kayakers, and there are plenty of opportunities for coastal walks and hikes in the surrounding area. Hillis Corner is also close to the famous Needles, a series of chalk stacks that rise out of the sea and are a popular tourist attraction.

Despite its small size, Hillis Corner has a strong sense of community and a rich history. The village is home to a number of historic buildings, including the Grade II listed Hillis Corner House, which dates back to the 18th century. The village also has a small church, St. John's, which was built in the 19th century and is still in use today. Hillis Corner is a charming and peaceful place to visit, with plenty of opportunities for outdoor activities and relaxation.
