Windmill Campersite sits down a quiet lane in Newport, Isle of Wight, overlooking Carisbrooke Castle, with picturesque views and walking trails right from the farm. The site is known for its quirky, individually themed glamping creations, from a converted helicopter and submarine prop to shepherd's huts and a milk-float cabin, alongside campervan and camping pitches with electric hook-up and awnings included. Onsite you'll find a social area with free firepit, BBQ and silent disco space, a shower and toilet block, an honesty shop and even an onsite cinema. Dog owners can let the hound run in a 20-acre field near the castle. Carisbrooke village is a short stroll away with a Co-op, pubs and restaurants, while Carisbrooke Castle Museum and Newport Roman Villa are both close by, and any beach on the island is within a 20 minute drive.
