It's an ideal springboard for the island's beachesβ€”Sandown and Shanklin are both close byβ€”while walkers can strike out onto nearby footpaths or catch public transport from the village into the surrounding countryside. On site, facilities are thoughtfully arranged: expect clean shower blocks, a dedicated parent-and-baby washroom, and recycling bins, plus a play area to keep younger guests occupied. Cars park right by your pitch, and barbecues are welcome for those warm evenings. Note that pets aren't permitted, so it's one to leave the dog at home. With free WiFi and a shop within easy reach, it's a well-placed, low-key base that hits the essentials without unnecessary fuss. ## Photos Photos via Google ## Can I bring...? β›Ί Tent pitches βœ“ Yes 🚐 Caravans welcome βœ• No 🚌 Motorhomes welcome βœ• No ✨ Glamping available βœ“ Yes πŸ›– Lodges & statics βœ• No ## Pitch types - β€’ 3 x Safari Tents - β€’ Safari Tent (Dog Friendly) Pitch details as listed by the booking provider β€” availability and exact pricing shown at checkout. ## Lodges & pods - πŸ›– 3 x Safari Tents - πŸ›– Safari Tent (Dog Friendly) ## Hook-up ⚑ Electric hook-up βœ“ πŸ”Œ EV charging βœ• ## Facilities 🚿 Hot showers βœ“ πŸ“Ά Free WiFi βœ“ 🏊 Swimming pool βœ• πŸ›’ Onsite shop βœ• 🎠 Children's play area βœ• πŸ– BBQs allowed βœ“ πŸ”₯ Campfires allowed βœ• 🧺 Laundry βœ• 🎣 Fishing βœ• πŸ› Hot tub βœ• β™Ώ Accessible facilities βœ• πŸ…ΏοΈ Hardstanding pitches βœ• 🍽️ Bar/restaurant on site βœ• 🚻 Toilets on site βœ“ Play area Car parking by pitch/unit Free wifi Parent & baby washroom Shower available Toilet block Washing-up area Family friendly Barbecues allowed No dogs allowed No pets allowed Recycling available Public transport nearby Shop nearby Tiny (1-10 pitches) Golf nearby ## Takeaway & food delivery Handy if you fancy a night off cooking β€” here's what delivers near this site. ### πŸ₯‘ Just Eat β€” 5 takeaways deliver to this postcode (PO36 0LZ) Domino's - Shanklin (Isle of Wight) β˜… 5.0 Β· Pizza, Chicken The Codfather @ Sunrise Hotel β˜… 5.0 Β· Fish & Chips, English Artista Pizza β˜… 5.0 Β· Pizza, Kebab BLONDIES β˜… 4.5 Β· Burgers, American The Roast Dinner House Roast Dinners, English Checked 26 Aug 2026 β€” always confirm on [justeat.co.uk](https://www.just-eat.co.uk/) before ordering, as coverage can change. ### πŸ›΅ Deliveroo β€” 36 restaurants nearby McDonald's Burger King Subway KFC Pizza Hut Restaurants Checked 26 Aug 2026 β€” always confirm on [deliveroo.co.uk](https://deliveroo.co.uk/) before ordering, as coverage can change. ## Nearest supermarkets Handy if you're self-catering or need to stock up on arrival. - Morrisons, Sandown 1.6 miles - Aldi, Sandown 1.7 miles - Lidl, Shanklin 2.3 miles - Co-op, Sandown 2.6 miles - Asda, Newport 3.9 miles - Tesco, Ryde 4.6 miles - Sainsbury's, Newport 4.8 miles Straight-line distances β€” the drive will be longer.

We are a family of 4 with 2 girls aged 9 and 3. We were searching for somewhere that would give us space of our own, some cooking facilities but that was back to nature. We haven't camped with our youngest yet and didn't fancy the gamble so glamping was ideal. I stumbled across Southland glamping safari tents and was immediately interested. I checked the reviews online and instantly felt that it was what I had been looking for. All the fun of camping but with a few more home comforts to ease our youngest into it. Upon arrival we were cheerfully greeted by name, talked through everything, given a nature quiz for our kids to do and handed the key to the site. The accommodation was perfect. Enough outdoor space for the kids to play near us, a BBQ but also indoor cooking facilities meaning we could have lazy breakfasts together and outdoor dinners. The safari tent was spotless and I honestly think it's the best sleep I've had in months, even when we had a thunderstorm! I liked that the bunk beds included a second lower bunk too so that we could have both kids lower level if we wanted, and they liked that they were partitioned off from us (if wanted) so they could have privacy and sneaky late night movies together. The toilet and shower block was spotless and hot showers available every time we went. They were close enough to our tent for our oldest to have some independence and go alone and we felt incredibly safe throughout the site. The addition of the little playground was lovely and a nice way for the kids to meet others and burn some energy. We saw staff around the site often and they were always friendly, asking how our day had been and giving recommendations of places to visit. The site is really well located (excellent location to Amazon World), less than 15mins to Sandown beach and less than 10min to Godshil and the Donkey Sanctuary. We had an absolutely fabulous stay and my oldest is already asking if we can go back next year. Thanks for making our first family holiday to the IoW a wonderful experience. a year ago Β· via Google Carmen Venn β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… Lovely, peaceful settings, toilet/shower block could do with updating, it's looking tired. 2 years ago Β· via Google john moore β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… Excellent facilities for caravan and camping site and well managed 2 years ago Β· via Google [More campsites in Isle of Wight](https://staycation.co.uk/isle-of-wight/camping) β˜… 4.8 (4 reviews) 100% of guests would recommend this site From Β£98 per night [Book on Pitchup](https://www.pitchup.com/campsites/England/South_East/Isle_Of_Wight/Sandown/southland-experience-freedom-glamping/) [Visit website](https://www.experiencefreedom.co.uk/locations/regions/southern/isle-of-wight/southland/?utm_source=staycation.co.uk&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=campsite) [01983 865385](tel:01983865385) (please mention staycation.co.uk when calling) ### Quick Facts **Destination** Isle of Wight **County** Isle_Of_Wight **Dogs allowed** βœ… Yes **Electric hook-up** βœ… Yes **Payment** Cards 🏨 ### Prefer a hotel nearby?
