General

  • Family-friendly site on a hillside wooded glade with an old farmstead
  • A 15-minute drive to Brighstone Bay and 20 minutes to Compton Bay
  • Communal firepit and easy access to footpaths; dogs allowed

All set to start your family break on the Isle of Wight? With Camp Corve as your base, it’ll be off to a flying start. The dog-friendly site is surrounded by an ancient woodland in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, 15 minutes’ drive away from the nearest family-friendly stretch of sand.

What activities might you get stuck into around here? Walking, cycling, skateboarding, sitting around a firepit, swimming and surfing, to list but a few. There's a barn-based skatepark a couple of minutes’ walk away and it’s a five-minute drive to Military Road, which has sweet coastal views and beaches.

Beach time? Head for the family-friendly Brighstone Bay, accessible from Grange Chine (15 minutes’ drive), or Compton Bay (20 minutes’ drive) for its north-westerly chalk cliff views and surf school. The quiet leafy lane leading to the site becomes a bridleway that leads onto extensive hikes through Isle of Wight landscapes too.

Tucked into a hillside, Camp Corve's wooded glade is on an old farmstead with six acres of space. Vast skies and rolling countryside? Indeed. Private and sheltered by young and mature trees, wild plants and grass? Oh, yes. Birds and small animals also call this place home, so kids won’t be the only ones playing about.

No need to sacrifice home comforts here, as the site has a ‘Squirrels and Hedgehogs’ toilet and hot shower building fashioned from recycled bricks from around the old farm. Power sockets are available, as is an accessible toilet. The ‘Ash Circle’ has two communal firepits with logs available and an outdoor sink for washing up. Cars are parked in the farmyard area, where there’s a wheelbarrow-trolley to transport your gear.

    Camp corve was fabulous. Nestled in a beautiful part of the Isle of Wight, a little off the beaten track, Hamish & his partner have created something special. Excellent clean bell tent, brand new showers & loos. Altogether it was all that we had hoped for and more. Highly recommend it.

    Disliked: 

    Would have liked a fridge to put things like milk. Otherwise it was pitch perfect!

    Clean toilet facilities, very picturesque rural setting, great camp fire area. Glad trolley provided for moving stuff between car and pitch. New showers are cool! Site staff very friendly and very responsive to texts

    Disliked: 

    Small area for pitching tents so they were very close together so it was fairly noisy with children and dogs etc but it was school holidays. Top car park can get full up. Didn't realise when i booked that you can't park next to tent but it didn't matter too much. Noone around on arrival but i should have contacted the number provided on the signs to check in

    Toilets and showers really need improving

    Washing up area only has cold water and the drainage pipe is a half round gutter so splashes on your feet

    There is no provision for rubbish / waste

  • Liked: 

    We liked how chilled the atmosphere was, the gentleman how owns the campsite is so easy going and nice to talk to. Shower was lush and always clean! The campsite is centre to everywhere really and we didn’t have to travel long to get to various places. There’s work ongoing at the moment to produce more showers/toilets but this didn’t generate any noise or caused any disruption!
    Also the little campfire under the trees was so relaxed and a nice touch to top it all off!

    Disliked: 

    Not a dislike but on-site bins would be good for throwing away rubbish. We had to find bins across the island on our days out but it wasn’t an issue for us.

Local attractions

With white cliffs and golden sands, the Isle of Wight's coast is likely to snatch your attention. Get the classic golden sand at Brook Bay (15 minutes) and then track down the traditional fishing cove Steephill Cove (15 minutes).

If you want a vintage kind of beach day, head to Ventnor (20 minutes) to hire traditional beach huts with wheels. Blackgang Chine (10 minutes) is another spot full of heritage – it's famed as the UK’s oldest amusement park. The 400-foot drop tower has views of the sea before the big drop.

Those of you keen on gathering some historical knowledge can pay a visit to Carisbrooke Castle (15 minutes), Mottistone Gardens and Estate (20 minutes), Model Village Godshill (10 minutes) or the 88-acre Robin Hill (20 minutes).

The Needles Landmark Attraction (half an hour), of course, is a must-see with views of white cliffs and demos like glass blowing or sweet making. A botanic garden, zoos and a farm park are within a short drive of the site.
