The Needles Landmark Attraction is absolutely worth visiting – a true highlight of the Isle of Wight! The views are breathtaking, and the chairlift ride is an unforgettable experience, offering stunning sights of the cliffs, sea, and the famous Needles. It’s something everyone should try at least once. There are a couple of small areas that could be improved. The food section could offer a bit more variety and quality, and clearer signage for the beach path (especially placed above the queue area) would make things easier for visitors. That said, the chairlifts themselves were excellent – smooth, safe, and such a unique way to take in the scenery. Overall, a fantastic attraction that I would highly recommend to anyone visiting the Isle of Wight. Don’t miss it!

The Needles Landmark Attraction is an amazing place to visit with stunning views and plenty to enjoy for all ages. The cable car ride down to the beach is absolutely breathtaking, offering panoramic views of the cliffs, sea, and the iconic Needles rocks. The attractions and shops are fun and family-friendly, and the area is well organized with great facilities. The mix of natural beauty and adventure makes it a perfect day out. A must-see experience when visiting the Isle of Wight — unforgettable and worth every moment!

Lovely place to visit on the Ilse of Wight. It was a very windy day on our visit to the Needles. We took a trip on the cable car that takes you down to the foreshore,what an experience it was as your lowered over the cliff edge. There is plenty of things to do to keep the kids occupied and the area is disabled friendly. There is a lovely coffee shop selling tea and coffee,soft drinks and cakes ect. A couple of gift shop also. Toilets on site are clean. Large car park. £6.00 per vehicle, £4.00 if a member of the National trust. Also there is a beautiful glass shop.

We went in a bank holiday. Narrow roads leading to the site along with many coaches and cars. We paid £6 for the car park and disabled were allowed to park at the bottom on the field but it was still a mobility navigation issue getting down to the main road. It was very busy. We walked through there gates and had an ice cream with flake. There were many tables with seating but these were mainly full with people eating the various foods (curry was in the air) and picnics. As we walked through the site along- the chair lifts were on the right and the queue to get in was vast. We stood on the platform at the end overlooking the needles . We don’t use the telescope but the pictures bought it closer. For us it was hot and crowded and we stayed about 1.5hrs. Makes the parking expensive . Didn’t know about the boat trip.

Lots of fun for the whole family. Recommend a ride on the chair lift to Alum Bay where you will find the beautiful coloured sands. There are steps down to the beach. You can also get a boat to The Needles to see them from the sea. There are cafes, shops, crazy golf and rides to go on.

This view is simply unforgettable and so relaxing! The vast blue sky, the sea, and the dramatic green cliffs make for pure natural beauty. The best part was the unexpected rainbow over the water—it was truly amazing! Highly recommend a visit here for the stunning views.

You have to visit The Needles when you come to Isle of Wight! We loved our The Needles visit! We paid £10 each for return tickets for the chairlift option to get down to the small Needles beach! Totally worth it saves us from climbing up and down the steep staircase! And then when we got to the bottom of the beach, we paid another extra £9 each for a 20mins boat ride which is also another must do, the boat guide was excellent and very knowledgeable on the whole of the needles landmark!

Love a National Trust, and if you are doing Tennyson Down it is definitely worth stopping by the Old Fort. I really liked how they have restored parts of the site and brought it to life. It is not very big so it does not take long to go around, but it is nice to wander through and the views of the Needles are amazing and were the real highlight. They also have a tea room, which to be honest was not that great, a bit of a shame given how lovely some other National Trust tea rooms are. It could have been something really charming like the one at the lighthouse in Dorset. The walk to the fort was another highlight and is so beautiful with lots of wildlife. A really stunning area.

an incredible couple of hours spent here. We got a return on the cable car, £10 per adult. Really good price. Had beautiful views of the ocean coming down, we then went straight onto the boat ride, again incredibly priced. 20 mins out to sea and a view of the needles, beautiful sights. We were lucky enough to have stunning weather. Cable car back up to the top after a lovely walk along the beach and then made our sand jars and played crazy golf. Hasn't changed since I came when I was little.

Beautiful autumn day for a hike and this didn't disappoint. Stunning views of the Needles. Well worth the trek. You can also drive but why would you if you can manage the coastal path then do. It's beautiful.

It took about 30 min with kids to wander along to here from the car park (tell them you’re an NT member for £2 off). Did it on a hot and sunny day but lovely views on the way and from the battery. Interesting displays and the tunnel down is cool, if not pretty narrow! Place to get a coffee and plenty of places to sit and eat a picnic. Worth a visit especially if an NT member.

Great history about the Fort listed. I recommend a visit if you go. Not too expensive to get in but it is a national trust place so it's a must do if you have a membership. Very windy when I went so be prepared when walking along the cliff top. There is an enclosed walk way to a view advantage point inside the cliff, at some points this is narrow so I wouldn't recommend if you are claustrophobic

A bit of a walk from the 'Needles Attraction' but it's on a fairly level road. There's not much at the Old Battery but it's worth a look if you're a NT member. Probably not worth the entrance if not. If you pick a decent day, the views are spectacular though.

Very interesting area to visit, you can walk but I recommend taking the open top bus to get there - great views. There is a cafe and shop.

Really enjoyed the experience of watching the glass making/blowing demonstration and definitely worth the £2 fee. Highly recommend a visit

It was a nice experience to see the live glass making in the factory. Good place to grab some beautiful glassware and souvenirs. It was all free to visit.

We used to enjoy watching these guys make the things they sell in their shop.. But now they charge £3 each to watch...... Such a shame, lots of people approaching the door see the cheeky charge and walk away, us included.

A short 15-20 min glass making journey. Kids would surely enjoy. Pretty detailed. Howeverthe shop is too overpriced

Bought a beautiful glass toadstool! You can pay £2 to watch the glass makers, fascinating

I recently purchased online with the shop and found them to be very helpful and thoughtful I received exactly what I asked for The perfect wave beautiful

Some lovely glass artworks, all handmade in the shop. The glass making workshop was also fantastic, enjoyable experience for all ages.

Lovely little gem 💎. Annoying from the Needles you have to walk by the main road a bit which isn’t ideal but definitely worth it to visit Warren Farm. We had some ice creams and played with the friendly dogs and cute baby goats and purchased some eggs 🍳. I definitely recommend visiting if you can. The Farm Shop is self service with toilets nearby.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Warren Farm, Isle of Wight – Self-Service Farm Shop with Heart We stopped by Warren Farm after spotting it on a scenic drive earlier in the week, and I’m so glad we made the detour. It’s a self-service farm shop with a difference — beautifully presented, well-stocked, and full of character. You can even help yourself to hot drinks, which felt like such a warm, welcoming touch. We especially appreciated the clear signage, easy parking, accessible toilets (including disabled access), and the peaceful atmosphere. It’s also wonderful to know the farm operates with a more ethical approach — their smaller herd of cows are allowed to keep their calves and are milked just once a day. That alone makes it worth supporting. This kind of honesty and simplicity in shopping is a breath of fresh air. We’ll definitely be popping in again next time we’re on the island — even if just for the views, the coffee, and a sense of quiet connection with where our food comes from. 💚🥛🌾

Great little farm shop. Staff were friendly( found no colour discrimination) and the farm has a beautiful landscape. short walk from the needles. Toilets here were amazingly modern and spotless too. 10/10 would recommend.

Great little farm shop. We got some drinks and snacks in the middle of our walk from the Needles. So peaceful, lovely seating area with great views, food and drink was good and lots of animals including 2 very friendly dogs and a cat! 10/10 would recommend!

Wonderful little self-service farm shop in an idyllic location. We were staying on a self-catering holiday and loved being able to pick up some beef sausages for breakfast! The make your own milkshake was great too.

Highly recommended! The perfect place to call in for a light lunch or just for drinks, and yes they still do cream teas if you like. Easily accessible from the coast path meant we were able to walk from nearby Colwell Bay with dogs and children, but also plenty of parking. The owners are lovely and doing a super job here. Delicious home made pies, pasties, sausage rolls and cakes to name a few and all very reasonably priced. Horse box bar too so you can have a pint with your pie! Play park for the kids, plenty of seating and beautifully kept lawn. Special mention for Ollie the farm dog too! Fantastic honest local business that deserves the custom so spend your money here and not at the Needles attraction! (I am not related to or affiliated with Warren Farm in any way, despite my surname! But it’s a nice coincidence)

I've hiked many miles across the country and the Isle of Wight (where I live) and often pop into country cafes, farm shops, local pubs. Some modern takes on farm style or rural coffee shops are becoming more 'gourmet' like a city centre bistro. This small cafe, alongside some gorgeous country footpaths, has more of a traditional feel about it. From my experience, both styles are good and sell local produce, but this feels more rugged and natural for its location. It has a good selection of cakes, pastry, coffee, and a small onsight bar serving alcohol. The location is perfect, the cake I had was lovely and the prices are very good. It is thee perfect stop for a walker on a ramble around Freshwater, infact I would say it's a must visit. There is also parking if you wish to drive to it. It feels like an old school farm cafe. Now, on a few past reviews, I see people mentioning about them selling 'imported goods'. Having had a look at the selection of items they sell, it appears they get some of the goods from other local Isle of Wight farms as well as their own produce. There is nothing wrong with that. Many of the farm shops on the island sell foods made at other farms that don't have an onsight retail facilities, it all helps the local farming communities 🤝 I will be back for more cake when hiking around Freshwater next 😁
