Welcome to Lake

Lake is a small village located on the Isle of Wight, situated between Sandown and Shanklin. The village is named after the small lake that is located in the center of the village. The lake is surrounded by beautiful trees and is a popular spot for fishing and bird watching. The village is also home to a number of shops, restaurants, and pubs, making it a great place to visit for a day trip or a longer stay.

One of the main attractions in Lake is the beautiful beach that stretches for miles along the coast. The beach is a popular spot for swimming, sunbathing, and water sports, and is a great place to relax and enjoy the stunning views of the English Channel. The beach is also home to a number of cafes and restaurants, where visitors can enjoy a meal or a drink while taking in the beautiful scenery.

Lake is also home to a number of historic sites and landmarks, including the Old Church of St. Paul, which dates back to the 12th century.
