Parkhurst Forest is a woodland to the north-west of Newport, Isle of Wight, England.

It is much used as recreational land and is a haven for wildlife including the red squirrel and many species of bird such as garden warbler, nightjar, woodcock, green, great spotted woodpecker and long eared owl.

Factories were located in this way during the Second World War to avoid German bombers.

One of these factories, a former aircraft hangar, became the printworks for J. Arthur Dixon, the eponymous manufacturer of greetings cards and postcards.
