Old Mill Holiday Park
Quiet family-run park of caravans, pine cabins and apartments on the shore of Bembridge Harbour in St Helens, open all year.
- No dogs
- Near beach
- Glamping
The Stephens family have run Old Mill since 1967. It sits on a hillside at the edge of St Helens village, split between a top park with wide sea views and a lower park right on the edge of Bembridge Harbour, next to the old tide mill causeway and the National Trust's St Helens Duver.
There is no touring or camping. You stay in one of around 30 centrally heated holiday caravans, pine cabins or two apartments, sleeping two to six, with linen included. There is no bar or entertainment, just a games room with snooker and table tennis, a launderette, a play area with an aerial runway and a pirate ship, and EV charging points.
Cars stay in the two car parks rather than beside the units, which keeps the park peaceful; trolleys are provided for luggage. The village green, pubs and the number 8 bus are a few minutes' walk away.
- Waterfront units on Bembridge Harbour
- Open all year, with off-season short breaks
- Five-minute walk to St Helens village and the Duver
- Ferry discounts of up to 45-50% through the park
