Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

Godshill is a nice place to look around, all old building, there is a model village and the old smithy.
Robin hill is a good place to go for the kids.
Calbourne water mill is nice, they have a little cafe there and give tours around the mill showing how it all works.
Shanklin Chine is a very nice place to walk through.
Ventnor down is a good place to get some good views, park up at the top and have a picnic, just make sure it's a clear day.
Carisbrooke Castle.
The iow Steam Railway.
Butterfly & Fountain World.
Isle of Wight Donkey Sanctuary.
St. Catherines Lighthouse.

There is loads to do.
