Isle of Wight Aqua Park

The only outdoor floating Aqua Park on the Island.  Climb, slip, slide, jump! Over 20 obstacles to tackle. Great fun for anyone over the age of 7 years.

Archery & Axe throwing  

Whether you’re a complete novice or a modern day Robin Hood, our experienced, trained staff will provide quality coaching in our purpose built covered barn. Great fun for anyone over 11 years.

Clay Pigeon Shooting 

An exciting Clay Pigeon Shooting and Rifle Range facility operated by Top Targets, tucked away on the edge of our farm. The experienced team welcome shooters of all abilities.

Isle of Wight Football Golf 

Football Golf uses the same rules as golf but instead players don’t use a club, they kick a ball with the fewest number of kicks/shots possible to score in the hole!

Players can play 9 or 19 holes.  Located on a hill, there is also the added bonus of enjoying the most stunning countryside and sea views as you play the course!

Originally a dairy farm, Tapnell has become the Isle of Wight’s leading eco-tourism business where sustainability is at the heart of everything we do.

School groups

Tapnell Farm is set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with uninterrupted rural and sea views, stunning sunsets and beautiful beaches on our doorstep.

We cater for approximately 100 students, with no more than two school groups at one time. Our enthusiastic and experience team are focused on people powered fun!

We offer teacher-led residential experiences with lots of great activities to enjoy both on and off-site. 

Student accommodation is provided in ‘off-grid’ converted cabins with bunk beds in each, a short stroll away from a modern washroom block, with flushing toilets and hot showers.

Catering is provided by our award-winning on-site restaurant, The Cow.
