Touring and camping

  • Half a mile from sandy Shanklin beach
  • Kids' clubs, pool, spa pool, diner, bar and restaurant
  • Varied entertainment in the evenings
Location, location, location… Lower Hyde Holiday Park is only half a mile from the glorious sandy sweep of Shanklin Beach, one of the most popular spots on the Isle of Wight. If the sun has got his hat on, you can stretch out on the loungers beside the heated outdoor pool and watch the kids zoom down the flume; if it’s raining, there’s a spa pool inside instead. And whatever the forecast, you can look lively with a kickabout on the all-weather sports court. The site also has the Barnhouse bar and restaurant, and evening entertainment is sorted at the spacious Squires Showbar with its busy schedule of live bands, discos and cabaret. Lower Hyde also has a full range of kids' clubs, with characters such as Sparky to keep the younger ones fizzing, and suitably cool activities such as film making for teens.

What customers say

Spacious, well-kept sites & clean facilities, especially showers, are often praised. Friendly, helpful staff add to a great atmosphere. Location is a big plus, with easy access to local spots. While many enjoy the entertainment, some note dated facilities and occasional cleanliness hiccups, especially at busy times. Wi-Fi can be spotty.

Liked The electric tent pitches were very large leaving plenty of space between tents. The layout was really nice and we were close to the toilet and shower block.
Our children enjoyed the swimming pool and slide as well as the arcade. We also had fun at bingo.

Liked We stayed here with our campervan and had a great experience. The pitches are very spacious, giving us plenty of room to relax. The on-site bar was a nice bonus, and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The toilets and showers were spotlessly clean. Highly recommended!

Disliked Some of the turns—especially the one below the pool—are quite blind and tricky to navigate with a larger vehicle like a motorhome.

Liked First time staying at lower hyde in a tent and had a fantastic stay. The reception team was very accommodating as we was put in a sunny pitch and we asked to be moved over into a shade area. Shower block and toilet was clean.

Liked Good shower block it had a bath@@ fantastic 👏

Disliked 3 different check in times given! 12pm on shower doors which could have done with..2pm from pitch up and 4pm on the day from the park...hot day could have done with dip in pool . Instead hung around waiting for 4pm by which time pool closed..gave us a pitch that was like concrete. Wanted to charge us extra for transfer to pitch with softer grass...

Local attractions

Aside from its fab beach, Shanklin also has a good variety of shops, seaside amusements and eateries, with some of the best examples of the latter to be found in the Old Village, a picture-perfect cluster of thatched cottages and winding streets. The Shanklin Chine is a lovely wooded gorge with waterfalls and nature trails, and is doubly atmospheric when it’s lit up on summer evenings. For those who like exploring by bike or Shank’s pony, there are miles of footpaths and cycling tracks around Lower Hyde Holiday Park. Some of the Isle of Wight’s most popular family attractions are nearby too, including Carisbrooke Castle, Dinosaur Isle and the Blackgang Chine theme park.
