- 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.

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.
