The Squirrels Rest is a bar at Fairway Holiday Park on Perowne Way in Sandown, Isle of Wight. Its setting within a holiday park gives it a clear leisure focus, while its dine-in format provides a place for drinks and socialising.

The bar serves beer, wine and cocktails, covering familiar choices alongside mixed drinks. With a moderate price level, it suits a relaxed stop for refreshments without presenting itself as a formal dining destination. The available format is centred on drinks, seating and time spent in the bar rather than a particular cuisine.

Live music forms part of the venue’s offer and adds an entertainment element to the bar. The music provides a reason to visit beyond ordering a drink, with the setting suited to occasions when groups want refreshments alongside a shared social experience.

The combination of group-friendly use, dine-in seating and a drinks-led menu gives the venue a straightforward role within the holiday park.

Beer, wine and cocktails make the drinks choice broad enough for different preferences, while live music gives the atmosphere a more event-focused character at suitable times. The venue also has outdoor seating, providing an alternative to staying indoors when that area is available for use. Seating arrangements may vary, so checking before arrival is sensible for groups with particular requirements.
