This is a narrow field just to the East of the Isle of Wight Pearl. Do not enter the IW Pearl property. Park on the grass verge by the road. There is a footpath that runs along the hedge to the cliff edge. At the end turn left, and you're in the field. Take off is best at the far end of the field. Do NOT turn if you get below cliff height!!!.
