One of the most popular family destinations on the Isle of Wight, Tapnell Farm lays on an impressive variety of things to do. A former dairy farm, which also provides some of the island's best self-catering accommodation, its popular attractions provide all manner of things to do for the whole family
There's a year-round Farm Park, with animal enclosures and pedal go-kart racing. You can spend time in its paddock meeting donkeys, meerkats, wallabies and other creatures, clamber about in the playground or on its slides, and play a round or two of mini golf.
Tapnell Farm also hosts multiple seasonal events, such as its autumn Pumpkin Festival and Christmas at Tapnell, while for the more adventurous, there's the Isle of Wight Aquapark at Tapnell Farm (open seasonally) and target sports such as archery and axe-throwing, and even 'football golf'! And everything can be booked online.
You could easily spend an entire day at Tapnell Farm, and some people come back again and again (in which case you might consider basing yourself here). You can hire bikes or explore the surrounding countryside on foot by way of the 'Tapnell Trail', and accommodation at Tapnell Farm is dog-friendly so you can bring the whole family. Tapnell Farm is also home to one of the best family-friendly restaurants on the island, the award-winning Cow!
