Yes, absolutely love it.

My grandparents had their honeymoon in Ventnor and went back every summer for about the next 50 years. They took all us grandchildren there in the 80s so we all have a lot of affection for it.

I took my own family on a pilgrimage there two years ago and loved how it still seemed to look exactly the same.
