Whether you camp or glamp, sleeping under canvas is a great way to explore the great outdoors at your own pace, whilst enjoying new and exciting experiences. There are many different campsites on the Island, and which one you choose will depend on what you’re looking for from your camping break.
ALL-IN FAMILY CAMPING LOOKING FOR:
On-site entertainment Swimming Playground Bar & Restaurant Holiday parks are incredible for parents with children of all ages. They have plenty on offer to keep everyone entertained, they’re convenient for all your essentials and offer somewhere to grab your evening meal and refreshments after a long day exploring the Island. There are plenty of family-friendly holiday parks with camping areas across the Island including Parkdean Resorts parkdeanresorts.co.uk and Away Resorts awayresorts.co.uk who have the full “family fun” package.
OFF-GRID CAMPING LOOKING FOR:
Relaxation Off-Grid Experience Basic Amenities Camping can be one of the greatest escapes from normal life and, if you’re looking for a bit of peace and quiet with not much else, then the Island can cater for that too. Go totally off-grid and sleep under the stars with wild camping. If you’re new to wild camping, Camp Wight campwight.co.uk and Compton Farm comptonfarm.co.uk both offer “rural” experiences with a few essential amenities. Strip back to the basics and just enjoy the simplicity of countryside surroundings with stunning views.
