Ride | Rest | Recharge

Looking for the perfect place to rest your tired legs and park your wheels? Welcome to Rusty Meadow, the Isle of Wight’s friendliest bike-friendly pop-up campsite.

We’re just a 10-minute pedal from the Whitwell junction of the Round the Island route, so you don’t have to wobble too far off course to find us. Pop your bike on its stand, grab a cold drink, and enjoy a proper night under the stars.​​​

More than just a cycling stopover

Want to give your legs a break?

Rusty Meadow is a short stroll from Godshill village, one of the prettiest spots on the Isle of Wight. Think cosy pubs, quirky tea rooms, and the famous model village.

Plus, the main bus route runs right through Godshill, so you can ditch the bike for a day and go explore the Island at a more leisurely pace.
