About Glamping at Island Riding Centre

An ideal spot for groups and families, this glamping site on the Isle of Wight offers a great base for exploring.

Four of the safari tents can sleep up to eight guests, fully furnished with three separate bedrooms offering a king size bed and full size wooden bunk beds. There is a comfy sofa area, along with a full kitchen kitted out with a sink, hot plates, utensils and a fridge for all of your cooking needs. Each also offers two bathrooms, each with a loo and shower, and is fully lockable with UPVC patio doors with a key safe. For those with mobility issues, one of the safari tents has been specially designed with adaptations. There is a gravel path entranceway, with a ramp available too. The bathroom also includes a walk-in shower with ample space, along with an optional toilet frame. This safari tent can sleep up to six and offers a larger bedroom that can be configured as requested, along with a bunk room. This tent does have a traditional zipped entrance.
