Unforgettable places to stay in the Isle of Wight countryside

Stay at Tapnell Farm

There's a reason Tapnell Farm is regularly voted one of the best places to stay on the Isle of Wight. When you escape with us, you're free to make every day extraordinary.

This is a place where nature feels bigger and closer. Where coast and countryside views stretch in every direction and spectacular sunsets are part of the experience. Where you can swap screen time for quality time – with endless opportunities for adventure, relaxation and good, honest people-powered fun.

And it all starts here – with family cottages, romantic lodges, rustic tents and luxurious, dog-friendly domes. Each is packed with home comforts and promises a unique taste of life on the farm. We've worked hard to make them truly special, so you can enjoy an Isle of Wight stay you'll never forget.

  Luxury Family Glamping

We stayed 4 nights in the dome meadow in the most beautiful dome tent. On arrival the accommodation was spotless and so well presented with everything we needed for our stay. The dome was heated with a Dyson heater so we had a lovely warm welcome. The fridge was stocked with fresh milk and cold water, the fires were ready to be lit and all our beds were being warmed by electric blankets ready for the evening. The farm park was a 5 minute walk across the field, past the lambs and llama!! I have already recommended our stay to friends and we hope to be returning soon!!

  Great venue for a weekend break

Booked a long weekend break for the whole family + dog as a surprise 70th birthday treat for my wife. We thoroughly enjoyed it, the cabin style accommodation was really nice and for a group of 6 adults, 2 toddlers and a dog it did not seem cramped at all. The on site attractions were just right for the kiddies and we didn't have to go off site for anything, plenty to see and do. Heartily recommend it for people of all ages.
