About Kingates Farm
Tucked away near Whitwell, Kingates Farm offers a peaceful adults-only retreat with a distinctly laid-back Isle of Wight charm. The shepherd's hut accommodation sits in quiet countryside, with Ventnor's sandy beach just a ten-minute drive and plenty of footpaths threading through the surrounding fields for walkers and their dogs. The on-site swimming pool is a welcome bonus after a day's exploring.
It's worth noting there's no WiFi, so this is genuinely a place to switch off – perfect if that's what you're after, though it may test the patience of anyone needing to stay connected. The site welcomes dogs and stays open year-round, making it a solid option for a simple, screen-free escape whatever the season.

What visitors say
Stayed in the stables for a long weekend - such a beautiful tranquil property in a great location. We made the most of the hot tub, pool and steam room. Thanks Julie for a lovely stay - and the freshly baked bread!

Second time visiting the Shepherds hut at Kjngates Farm. Both July visits. Every need is carefully considered and responded to in the hut. We love the ensuite bathroom for comfort and convenience. We've really enjoyed exclusive use of the pool. The hot tub is amazing in inclement weather, turning us both into well soaked prunes. We will return.

Peaceful location only a short drive from Ventnor with smaller local town facilities within walking distance. Beautiful views and fantastic facilities (private hot tub, bbq, fire pit, shared pool and steam room which can be reserved for private use, secure garden and fields for dogs).

Absolutely beautiful hut! Had the best weekend. Hot tub, swimming pool, sauna room. Walking the beautiful private grounds/paddocks in gorgeous weather was just stunning. Will definitely be visiting again. Also, freshly homemade bread baked and delivered to our door in the morning - perfection!
