Compton Farm Campsite sits on a family run beef and arable farm on the Isle of Wight, in a sheltered down land valley on National Trust land with views over the chalk downs to Compton Bay. The site offers touring and camping pitches as well as caravans, and is just a quarter of a mile from Compton Bay, a sandy beach safe for children and swimming and popular with surfers. You can enjoy walks over the Downs, spot wildflowers, or take a clifftop stroll. Further afield, the Isle of Wight's Museums & Galleries are within easy reach, including Dimbola Museum and Galleries, West Wight Heritage Centre and Yarmouth Town Hall, all a few miles from the farm.
