Turn right at the next roundabout and left immediately after the pub (Hare and Hounds). Continue along this road for about 21/2 miles and turn right towards Brading. Ignore the large layby on the left and park in the second smaller layby. The entrance to the reserve is about 10 metres on to the left down the marked footpath.
