A lovely campsite in a beautiful setting, facilities basic for price. However, during our stay the only cleaning we saw was the empyting of bins and brushing grass from toilet block floors. This did not bother us too much as it was pretty quiet when we were here.
Only 2 showers in the mens and 2 in the womens which I imagine would pose a problem in the school holidays. A lovely beach on your doorstep with a little bit of surf!
From the campsite you could walk up onto the top of the downs from where there were excellent views all around. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay (the fantastic weather helped) but if you want mod cons and loads of facilities this site is not for you.

We loved this place! Incredible views and surrounded by countryside so that if you stand outside at night you can see every star.
The caravans are basic but immaculately clean and with enough utensils to get by.
Great for kids - especially when they make friends with the other kids on the campsite and do wide games, fly kites and go roaming over the hills. There is also a small playpark which the kids seemed to really enjoy and there are plenty of cows, chicken, geese and ducks roaming about which will delight small children.
There's no shops or anything until you get to Freshwater so you need to get basic food for your first night there before you get to the campsite!
We are definitely going to go back next year!

This was the final destination of our three week coastal tour and what a way to finish! It's a rural/rustic camp site with plenty of space and great walks nearby. You can see the white cliffs from your tent and almost hear the sea crashing on the rocks!
Pitching was very relaxed but be aware that the basic facilities are at the entrance to the site, which means if you park right up the far end you have a good walk.
The nearest nice pubs we found were a short drive away in Yarmouth as there wasn't much at Freshwater.
If we go camping to the IOW again, we'll certainly give this camp site another go.

This is a great site. Facilities basic but very clean and always lots of hot running water (showers cost 20p so make sure you take some with you)
A classic small farm and the children love the animals and the wide open spaces. There is a small playground which the children spent most of their time in.
Quite a steep walk down to the nearest beach but very pretty views.
The Sun Pub at Hulverston was a gem, with a varied menu and reasonable prices. Nearest shop was the Co-Op in Freshwater Bay which is about 3 miles from the site and stocks most things.
We made our decision to go to Compton Farm after reading the great reviews on this site and they sum up the site completely. Lovely!

This is a really great campsite, quite basic but it has all the amineties you could want, but be warned if you want a shower get up early or you may have to queue as there are only 2 in the ladies and 2 in the gents!
The site has some lovely views of the cliffs and sea but can be a little windy if the wind is coming off the sea it comes straight up the valley towards you!
Great place to take the dogs as there is lots of room for them to roam free.
The couple who run it are both very lovely and very helpful.
All in all a great site, in a fantastic location ideal for exploring West Wight! May we also recommened the Sun at Hulverstone for great food and a fab view at sunset!

I completely agree with the other reviews - this is a great campsite! The site and facilities have already been reviewed so I won't say anything more about them. We must have picked the windiest weather to go camping and there wasn't much shelter from the wind that was coming off the sea and up the valley, but our tent survived the week - just! One of the best things about this site for me was the fact that there is a bus stop at the top of the drive. I must recommend buying a 7-day bus pass for £20. It sounds like a lot of money, but we travelled all over the island and definitely got our money's worth! The buses are so frequent that it was very easy to get about and it saved the hassle of finding parking places.
I would like to mention The Sun Inn in Hulverston. It's a lovely pub only about a mile and a half from the campsite, very friendly and they do excellent food. The bus stops right outside it and runs till quite late. What more could you ask for?
So, it's a lovely site and an excellent base for exploring the Isle of Wight - enjoy!
