About the site


This is a small, family-run working farm and it has many unusual and friendly animals including: alpacas, pigs, goats, a pony, a horse, a water buffalo, a donkey, poultry and small pets. It's a stone's throw away from the beach where you can fish or walk your dog or even sunbathe. One of the few unspoilt and non-commercialised coastal sites with unpolluted sea air, your base will be on the IOW's beautiful coastline. It's just off Military Road - one of the UK's most scenic drives. Waiting for you are pitches that range from back to basics spots without electric up to spacious fully serviced pitches. Sea views are thrown in, of course. Not ready to fish the tent out of the attic and get it in working order? Camping pods offer an alternative to a traditional camping holiday, each comes with insulation, a lockable door, electric, and a window. Please bring everything you need for camping, aside from the tent. Up to two dogs are welcome onsite! Please just ensure they are kept on a lead. Raised BBQs are permitted here. Sorry, campfires are not allowed.

Grange Farm is open from 27/03 to 02/11. Pitches from £23/night for 2 people.

A note from the site themselves...

In the early 15th Century, monks at Quarr Abbey were given a plot of coastal land to farm. This is what became to be Grange Farm. Back in 1628, King Charles I sold the land to the City of London, and it has had many owners since.

The farm now provides natural habitats for wildlife as well as facilities for our wonderful campers and holiday makers. It sits in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI), so there are stunning landscapes all around.

We hope to welcome you soon, David!

The Brighstone Forest is approx two miles away, and there are some spectacular views around the island high up on the Downs. Brighstone, and its near neighbour Brook, lie on the sunny side of the chalk downs that march east-west across the centre of the island.

The whole area is ideal for cycling, fishing, fossil hunting - as well as being a walkers paradise.

  • Two churches
  • The Three Bishops pub
  • Shops
  • Museum

The Isle of Wight is world-renowned for its dinosaurs. Many fossils have been discovered on the Isle of Wight, there is a chance a fossil or two might be found on the beach at Grange Farm or if you are wanting to look at a few fossils already found, the dinosaur farm is approximately 3 miles down the road.

Just a 20 minute drive will take you to Blackgang Chine, a lovely family amusement park with great rides, slides and treats for everyone.
