Top marks to John and team for an outstanding operation. We (family of four, all fairly keen cyclists) hired bikes for the day and were really impressed by the quality and condition of the bikes themselves, and with the communication and administration behind the hire. John and his colleagues gave us really helpful advice on routes and destinations and we all had a great day heading over to Freshwater Bay, up to the Needles, and down the west coast of the island back towards Yarmouth. As the website says, if you're driving to Yarmouth to pick up your bikes, park in the public car park and walk the 5 minutes to the (old) station - there's definitely no parking there!

Tapnell Farm Park

Tapnell Farm Park is an award winning, all-weather family attraction on the Isle of Wight. Formerly one of the Isle of Wight's largest dairy farms, Tapnell Farm Park now plays host to a whole range of animals, including Wallabies, Meerkats, Donkeys, Goats and more! It also has loads of indoor and outdoor activities for families, including a large Play Barn, Jumping Pillow, Pedal Go Karts, and a Straw Bale Adventure Barn.

Reviewed By KateH1579

We live on the island and had never ventured down to Tapnell. Having some family here we decided to finally check it out. I was anticipating your average farm but it was so much more than that. From the indoor play barn suitable for all ages, with zip lines, trampolines, climbing walls, slides and go karts to all the wonderful animals you can pet (we saw pigs, goats, guinea pigs, rabbits, aplacas, wallabies & meerkats). Then you have the brilliant outdoor play area with the bouncing pillows! My 4 year old spent ages on the pillows and absolutely loved it and since we left has asked daily if we can go back! We went during the “covid” period so the indoor play barn was shut but that didn’t bother us, they’re currently doing online booking only and it’s for 3 hour slots in morning or afternoon, I found that plenty of time as after 3 hours I was exhausted! I would absolutely recommend this place if you’re visiting the island or even if you live here like us!

Reviewed By willhT1538PD - Dover, United Kingdom

This is a lovely little attraction in a unique building which is well worth a visit. Lots of really interesting reptiles on display in immaculate well scaped habitats and a very unusual nocturnal room where torches are provided to see all of the inhabitants. The highlight for us was the 70+ rescued turtles and terrapins housed in a large pool in the middle. A pot of turtle food can be bought from the well stocked gift shop along with snake skins and various pocket money toys. The owner is lovely and very knowledgeable and passionate about what she does and all in all this place is well worth a visit.
