Absolutely Fabulous!

As Island residents we are trying out local sites to 'find our feet' as relatively new motorhomers! This lovely site lived up to everything we have discovered we love about it - absolutely stunning scenery, total peace and tranquillity and a beautiful neat and tidy site. The pitches (five in all) are well spaced apart with their own EHU, water and grey waste, set on gravel and edged with neatly mown grass. There is planting around each fenced off pitch (which isn't shown in the photographs) and there is plenty of space between each pitch. The paddock is large and well kept and you can also access the lower field which Richard told us is stockproof and safe to let your dog off the lead. There is no light pollution, nothing nearby that causes annoying noises and it's well off the road so you don't hear traffic. We did a lovely walk up onto the down which wasn't far away. There are waste bins on site for recycling and rubbish disposal; electric is on metre and you can top up if you need to. We had the most restful two night stay and Richard and Beryl were wonderfully welcoming and helpful hosts. We were very reluctant to leave! We'll definitely return to this site for more rest and relaxation.

Fabulous Fully Serviced Site

Beautifully located fully serviced site within easy walking distance of several great pubs. Richard & Beryl give you a really warm welcome and will brief you on walks and attractions within the local area. Can’t recommend this site more highly.

Absolutely fantastic

We stayed at Downsview for ten days during June and July. Fantastic site, very well organised, clean and well kept. Great views and very peaceful. Dog walks from site are simply suburb in all directions. Richard and Beryl were uber friendly and full of useful local knowledge. its a small site but the pitches are well spaced and immaculate. Local pub in Niton is highly recommended food is really top class, the pizza from the post office, yes the post office, on Wednesday night was one of the best we have had and the local shop is on par with any good supermarket. We clearly had a fantastic stay so thank you both very much Richard and Beryl from both of us and our two Boxers!!!

A Benchmark Cl that sets the standard

A 1st class adult only Full service CL site, in a lovely location. Owners (Richard & Beryl) are friendly, helpful, approachable but not intrusive and simply just very nice people with lots of "Local" advice of walks, pubs, events, landmarks etc. Keep up the great work its very appreciated.

This is what CL's are about!

A gem of a site, with new gravel for the pitches in 2022 - and nicely level. Quiet, wonderful views to the Downs in the north. Very helpful hosts, with lot of good advice about the locality. About 25 mins walk to the pub in Niton, and a number of great walks from the site itself. Wonderful - look forward to returning some time

Delightful CL

We have just returned from a ten night stay on this delightful CL site. The views, peace & quiet cannot be overstated. The pitches are level and very well spaced. So many fantastic dog/walks straight from the site through truly unspoilt countryside. Only 1 mile away is the lovely village of Niton, which has a very well stocked supermarket, two pubs and a visiting fish & chip van on Friday evenings, all worth a visit. The Isle of Wight is a beautiful place to visit and with Richards great knowledge of the island, we were able to visit some amazing places only known to the locals. We were also lucky enough during our stay to see some red squirrels. We found something to do or somewhere to visit every day of our stay. Many thanks to Richard & Beryl who were super hosts. We will definitely return, until then....... Howard & Kay.

Another fantastic stay

Just got back after another super stay at Downsview. Well done to Richard and Beryl who make this site such a lovely place to stay. The fully serviced level hardstanding pitches and outstanding views make this one of the best CL’s I’ve stayed on. Can’t wait to go back.

Perfect

This cl is perfect in my opinion. 5 well spaced, level, generous sized, quiet, fully serviced pitches with the added bonus of beautiful views. It's IoW location is perfect for walking the coast path as it is no more than 30 minutes from any location and we used the excellent bus service to complete the walk by parking at the end of each days planned walk and busing to the start, very easy over the nine days. Very friendly and helpful owners were able to make great savings on the ferry crossing. Thank you Tim and Jane

Absolutely fantastic!

Just spent 4 nights at this brilliant CL. The views are outstanding from all pitches. Wonderful and friendly owners who were very helpful on arrival and informed you of all facilities. All pitches had ehu, water and grey waste point and all hardstanding and level. The site has two large fields for dog walks which lead onto the many public footpaths in the area. I didn’t really want to leave a review because I don’t want anyone else to know about it! Will definitely be returning. In fact I’m booking it now. Super!!
