What customers say
Peaceful, spacious, well-run site with clean, basic facilities and an eco vibe. Praised for helpful owner, generous pitches, lovely woodland walks, and fire pits. Minor facility hiccups and price were noted by a few, but most rated it excellent.

Littlewood unpowered forest floor tent site (wild)
Liked Beautiful surroundings that are pretty close to wild camping. The toilets and washing up areas were clean and in good condition. Jason was there to greet us and guide us with some information when we arrived. Excellent instructions to find the place and what the terms were.
Disliked There seemed to be a large group camping in the vicinity, who sang well into the night. Unclear whether they were in the same site or in an adjacent property. Fortunately the children fell asleep regardless and were well rested in the morning.

Fabulous site, well organised and cared for. In harmony with nature.
The Meadow unpowered grass campervan, tent or trailer tent site
Liked What a treasure we found in the Hampshire countryside. A wonderful, peaceful site. The organisation was super and our host could not have been more welcoming. Stunning walks from the site which suited our dogs perfectly! A lovely weekend get away for us. Thank you.

Bell tent
Liked The site was lovely, grass well kempt and site spaces were nice and big. There is plenty of wooded areas to walk and the lovely sounds of animals moving around. We stayed in a bell tent and it was lovely except the “bed”
Good showers and toilets were clean
Disliked Kitchen area in “the clearing” could do with being cleaned each day, there had been some hedge trimming (I guess) and there was leaves and branches and other debris in the sink and on the side where they hadn’t been cleared up so the area wasn’t clean to put your washing up to drain.
Make sure you keep to the 5mph speed limit or risk being told off quite rudely by the owner (I assume) yes I understand the need to be slow and being told to slow down wasn’t the issue, as quite rightly so we should be told if need be but it could of been said in a better way. We were told “it’s written in the information you receive” I checked my emails and only the booking confirmation was received and after readying through it to check I hadn’t missed anything there is nothing written in it
If you pay for the “adult only” area as that is what u want then don’t expect it to be the case as we had a large group come which included several children (luckily they were respectful and quiet) even the owner said “I know it’s adults only but there is a large group coming which has children” (this was in the same area we were in)
If you hire one of the bell tents don’t be expecting a “solid” bed as it is a blow up one which deflated and so the fitted sheet kept coming off and you’d be woken up by being tangled in the sheet.
Personally I’d recommend taking your own cooking equipment as the sauce pan which is there is useless due to the coating coming off so can’t use it, there is a stove of sort but you have to get logs etc to heat it up (we didn’t use it so can’t say if it was any good)
I was told that we had been given the information about the site via email which we should of read but looking back over my emails all I received was the booking confirmation which didn’t have the information in it.
Reception is limited so if you’re wanting to use your phone then it’s hit and miss, if you aren’t bothered then it’s lovely. There is no WiFi (personally it didn’t bother us)

A gem!
The Clearing unpowered grass campervan, tent or trailer tent site
Liked This is a gem of a campsite for those who value secluded peace and simple facilities. We were pleasantly surprised at how quiet the site was in the middle of August. We took a pitch in the Clearing, which was more spacious than we expected from the pictures. A good mix of sun and shade. There there was only one other occupant in the Clearing, and no more than a handful in the Meadow. The showers, loos and washing up places were all perfectly adequate (though obviously there may be queuing at busier times), with plenty of hot water. Lovely walks directly into the woods, and well located for many local places of interest.

Camping in the woods!
Littlewood unpowered forest floor tent site (wild)
Liked I really liked the tranquility, the birds in the trees, the clean toilets and showers, the drinking water. I particularly liked the lack of any type of entertainment, the lack of a shop, the lack of football goals, the lack of a play area etc.
Disliked Absolutely nothing.
