Stayed here with friends for four nights in April, site easy to find and a friendly welcome. Chose hard standings as it had been very wet and we had had problems at a previous site, pitches were large and well spaced, facilities excellent as you would expect. The site is very large and the grass pitches are surrounded by very tall conifer hedges which offer wind protection and shade depending on where you pitch The local pub is very good and very friendly though the walk to and from is a bit fraught as the road appears to be rat run for the locals. Enjoyed our stay here, did not think much of Sandown but Cowes including Osborne House was very interesting and the Needles once you got past the commercial bit was beautiful and well worth the walk from the Car park, which by the way is free if you can show a National Trust card. We used the Yarmouth Lymington ferry, not cheap but very quick and you avoid Southampton etc.
