Nettlecombe Farm, Isle of Wight

Prices & Facilities Introduction Contact Us
Introduction

Nettlecombe Farm is nestled in the heart of the rolling South Wight countryside, at the top of a quiet lane around half a mile from the village of Whitwell. It is a working farm that offers luxurious self-catering holiday accommodation.

Nettlecombe Farm has been in the Morris family for over 100 years. The farm's meadows are grazed by beef cattle, sheep, ponies and donkeys. In the Rickyard there is a wide variety of small livestock normally including chickens, geese, turkeys, pigs, goats and rabbits. In springtime, visiting children may be lucky enough to help bottle-feed the lambs. And when the kids need to let off steam there are three large grassed play areas - including one with toddlers play equipment, which has a stunning large 'Wendy' house and a fabulous wooden tractor and for the older children there is a sports pitch. There are many glorious walks and cycle routes accessible from the farm with breathtaking views of a large part of the island. Excellent coarse fishing is also available on our three lakes.

Fishing

If you enjoy fishing then you should take advantage of our three lakes that are located a 150 yard stroll down the lane, which is also accessible by car. These man made but now wholly naturalised lakes cover an area of 1.5 acres and are well-stocked with carp, roach and tench of various sizes. The largest recorded fish caught from these lakes to date was a 20lb carp caught by a 12 year old boy.

Guests staying at Nettlecombe Farm can fish free of charge, and the lakes are also open to the public for a daily £5 'per rod' charge. The lakes are open from dawn to dusk all year round.
