Camp Corve is a small, nature-led site down a quiet lane near Chale, on farmland with sea glimpses inside the Isle of Wight National Landscape. Tent campers pitch in pockets of a sheltered, gently sloping woodland glade (17 non-electric pitches), while two caravan and two motorhome pitches sit separately with optional hook-ups. Cars stay in the farmyard car park and a wheelbarrow trolley is provided, which keeps the camping area quiet and safe for children.
For glampers there are three furnished 5m bell tents on wooden bases, each with camp beds, power, a picnic bench and a private fire pit, plus the Squirrel's Den woodland lodge and three courtyard cottages let through holidaycottages.co.uk. Shower blocks are built from reclaimed farm materials and include a bath, and the Ash Circle has shared firepits with logs. The owners run Canopy Skatepark, an all-weather skatepark in a converted barn on site with sessions and lessons, and the lane continues as a bridleway into the downs.
