Carisbrooke Castle (English Heritage)
Enjoy a visit to Carisbrooke Castle, an artillery fortress, king's prison and a royal summer residence.
View and BookSouth Thorness Farm CL is a friendly, well maintained, adults only campsite that welcomes club members to a relaxing holiday venue. Situated on the coast we are close to all the facilities that the sea can provide. Thorness Bay has a sheltered beach overlooking the Solent where sailing, windsurfing, swimming and watersports can be enjoyed. The Bay is a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI), with the Heritage Coastal walk between Newtown and Cowes right next to us.
Dog owners are welcomed, and they will enjoy the lovely walks in the area, including to the local pub. There is a well-stocked local shop and children's play area within walking distance. The local pub, less than a mile away, is a traditional inn, with real ales. We are ideally located for car drivers to access the Island's attractions including the historic sites of Carisbrooke Castle, Godshill old village, and Osbourne House, the hustle and bustle of Cowes and its sailing, and the charm of places such as Calbourne, Yarmouth and Freshwater.
We have beautiful views across rolling countryside to the chalk downs, with great views of sunrise and sunset from your own caravan. With easy access to the shore, fishermen can enjoy beach fishing, or if you fancy offshore fishing, trips can be taken from nearby Yarmouth.
We can advise on the ferry crossing and help with discounted tickets.
Booking ahead is advised, in particular during summer, as the site is popular.
