The caravans (added by manager 10 jul 2023)

  • Peaceful, rural adults-only caravans with private gardens
  • A 10-minute walk from Binnel Bay and 25 minutes from Woody Bay
  • Ventnor's shops, restaurants and attractions within 10 minutes’ drive
The caravans at Far Out Caravan Retreat are each named after a crystal, which should be your first sign that this is a stunning and precious retreat. Set between the cliffs and the sea near The Undercliff area of the Isle of Wight and within a Site of Special Scientific Interest, the caravans are a real treat for holidays near the sea. First of all, they’re just 10 minutes’ walk away from Binnel Bay, a quiet, rocky bay which has good access to the Isle of Wight’s many coastal walking trails. Woody Bay is also 25 minutes’ walk away, with large pebbles and high cliffs accessible down a small trail from the Isle of Wight Coastal Path. Second, there are tremendous country walks around. The adults-only caravans are decidedly rural, you see. At the same time, however, the conveniences of Ventnor’s shops and restaurants are just 10 minutes’ drive away… Not that you will be heading to Ventnor for just your grocery shop or dinner. The seaside resort has a roster of attractions, including the gorgeous Ventnor Botanic Gardens, a seafront toddlers’ pool, signature crab dishes famed across the isle and a long beach. Each caravan at Far Out Caravan Retreat has its own private garden and, as well as being named after crystals, it’s decorated in the colours of its namesake. Across the site, expect stunning sunrises, sunsets and views of woodlands or boats out to sea.

Local attractions

People seeking the coast have been coming to the Isle of Wight since the Victorian times. Times may have changed, but its attractions are just as splendid as they were in the olden days… and many have survived since then. It was in Victorian England that Blackgang Chine (15 minutes’ drive), the UK’s oldest theme park, was first built – its rides are still going full steam ahead, although they’re very modernised nowadays. The Isle of Wight also has some really stunning views, of course. St Catherine's Lighthouse (40 minutes’ walk) is quite the vision, set on dramatic cliffs alongside a valley and down. Military Road (from 15 minutes’ drive), built during World War II, is always a lark too, stretching along the west coast towards Blackgang Chine with views of the channel and white cliffs. Don’t miss out on Godshill (15 minutes), whatever you do. The model village is always worth a wander around, along with the medieval church and thatched cottages. There’s a popular farm shop just outside, which has local fruit, meats and cheeses up for grabs.
