What customers say

Peaceful, rural campsite with secluded, spacious pitches among trees. Clean facilities, especially hot showers, praised. Great island base. On-site skatepark a hit. Some found few bins and wanted more charging points.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Nicely laid out site, excellent showers, hot water for washing up, very helpful hosts, location, there were no dogs when we were there, very pleasant fellow campers so must attract the right people 😊. Use of secure space to store and charge electric bikes. No cars in the camping area made it safe for children and peaceful for all.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Camp Corve was a lovely place to camp. Hamish the owner was welcoming and a joy to be around. He showed us around the camp site and where we could pitch. We loved that it wasn’t a vast field, it was in fact a natural environment with little pockets of camping pitches. The fire pit area was a great addition as was the skate park. We booked our children on to one of Hamish’ classes and they loved it so much that we booked on again. Definitely recommend the classes. The eco showers were fab, as were the shower indoors if you prefer less spiders.
We will definitely be back and cannot wait to see what Hamish and his wife add further.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Definitely somewhere we'd stay for longer, if we were on the IoW again, Camp Corve is lovely, well thought out, secluded, and peaceful. Loved the hand-painted signs and map! Great facilities for what is actually quite a small site (it wouldn't be the same if it were lots bigger).
It's about 90mins bike ride from Yarmouth (if that's how you roll!). We weren't carrying enough food for a meal for all of us, so we rode 15 mins to the White Mouse Inn for a meal, which was good.

Erin and Hamish very welcoming and the indoor skate park is real! Our kids loved it.

And yes, I saw a red squirrel scurrying about in front of me while everyone else was asleep.

Liked Landscaping, privacy, feeling of nature, family run, good washing bathroom facilities. Cars left away from the camping. And a skateboarding park for the kids run by the owners.

Disliked Hard to fault this camp, but if I'm being fussy a small shop to buy a pint of milk would have been nice.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked We LOVED this campsite. Everything has been so well thought out. We had our own little clearing, and although you're aware other people are there, the plants and trees around you make you feel you are out in the wild.
We are not seasoned campers, so it was great to have everything needed on site and close by. Proper toilets and great showers out in the field, washing up facilities and even ready made fire pits. Hamish was really friendly and always around the site if you needed him.
He helped us book our 8 year old in for his first ever skateboard lesson, which he thoroughly enjoyed and was one of the highlights of the stay. There were lots of walks from the campsite and the views were beautiful.
We really enjoyed it our stay here and will definitely be back.

Disliked Couldn't stay longer

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.
