Tapnell is a former dairy farm that has become an all-weather attraction on the Isle of Wight. A great family attraction set in picturesque countryside surrounded by the island landscape.

Visitors get to meet some of the cutest and smallest residents of the farm, including wallabies and meerkats. Enter the paddock and pet the goats, alpacas and other animals.

But it is not just animals, as there are also sledge runs, rope climbing frames and jumping pillows. In the barns there is a 3 storey soft play area, karting, hay bale barn for building dens and anything else the children imagine

Use this handy guide to help plan your day at Tapnell Farm Park, including where to eat and drink (the Snack Shack). There is also an award winning restaurant: ‘The Cow Restuarant & Bar’, which is a stone’s throw from the park itself.
