Robin Hill Country Park is an outdoor visitor attraction on the Isle of Wight in England, UK.
History
In October 2023, then-owners Vectis Ventures closed the park and put it up for sale. It cited the cost of living crisis, COVID-19 pandemic, and poor weather as reasons for closure. The company also stated the sale would allow it to invest in the nearby Blackgang Chine, which it also owns.[1]
In July 2024, the park was sold to Lee Priddle, who also owns a portable toilet hire business.[2][3] It reopened in 2025.[4]
