The latest news from Tapnell Farm

To meet the growing demand for weddings and events held on the Island, a new events barn will be opening at award-winning wedding venue, East Afton Farmhouse, this summer.

Five new luxury Geodesic Domes, complete with en-suite facilities, will be opening at Tapnell Farm in May 2021.

Nestled in the beautiful countryside setting of Tapnell Farm, the Domes will be set apart from other accommodation on the farm, sited in a private location with separate access. Their position will command the most amazing views out across the Solent to Lymington, with Bournemouth in the distance.

The Isle of Wight is an amazing place for birdwatching, with nature reserves, wildlife sites and over 150 kilometres of spectacular coastline to explore.

We are now entering the autumn migration period and are excited at the expectation of seeing good numbers of winter visitors including ducks and geese, right down to our smallest migratory bird, the gold crest, weighing just 5 grams, and the less common, fire crests. A good spot to view both is along the Yarmouth causeway.

Autumn is here, Happy Autumn Equinox!

It’s a great time of year to clear your head and to get some space, and what better way to do that then to get away to an island retreat, only a couple of hours down from London.
