About Southland Situated on the outskirts of the small village of Newchurch in the beautiful Arreton Valley, Southland Caravan Club Site presents an ideal location from which to enjoy your holiday. Half the island is designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and there are over 120 attractions and places of interest for you and your family to visit. Southland Caravan Club Site offers flat, level, well drained meadowland pitches, and has a large playground and play areas. Trees and shrubs punctuate the site layout, giving a peaceful feeling of privacy. The caravan park is convenient for all parts of the island, and within easy reach of some of the island's finest beaches. The island has an excellent bus transport system and you can catch buses from the Isle of Wight Zoo which frequently run into Sandown and Newport. Sandown and Shanklin are only 3 miles by road - both these towns share the same sheltered bay with its sandy beaches and safe bathing, ideal for families. Newchurch village with its charming Norman church is 5 minutes on foot and there you will also find a pleasant country inn serving fresh, hearty food. The garlic farm, a short distance from the site, is said to make the best coffee on the island. Slightly further afield there are loads of fun activities available including sea and freshwater fishing, golf, tennis, squash, swimming, horse riding, windsurfing, sailing and more. The well stocked information room at the site offers plenty more ideas for getting out and about in the local area.
