There are good train links via Portsmouth (Hovercraft and FastCat) or Southampton (RedJet).  Once on the Island please catch a connecting bus to the Newport Bus Terminal.

From Newport:

Via Yarmouth: catch the number 7 to Yarmouth Bus Station, and then Needles Breezer bus.

Via Freshwater Bay: catch the number 12 to St Agnes Church (the thatched church just past Freshwater Bay).

You can then catch the Needles Breezer bus.

Or you can walk via the Footpath as per the section on Walking.

CYCLING

Cycle along Moons Hill or Alum Bay Old Road until you reach Weston Lane (opposite the Highdown Inn).

WALKING

To prevent walking along the roads (Moons Hill or Alum Bay Old Road), take the footpath along the Downs by Tennyson Monument (or at the base of the Downs).  When you reach the National Trust Car Park Tennyson Down, walk along Highdown Lane until you reach the Highdown Public House.  Stoats Farm is directly opposite.
