  • Small and friendly family-run site in the New Forest National Park
  • A 10-minute drive to New Forest Water Park; half an hour to the coast
  • Barbecues, wood and fuel sold on site and a pub just down the road
Whether it’s glades, moors or clifftops you've got your sights set on, walking and cycling are quite the treat in the New Forest National Park… and handily, Tom’s Field is a friendly place to start your engine, with New Forest Water Park 10 minutes’ drive away and beaches half an hour away in case you fancy a plunge down into the seaside. This is a small, family-run site, open on weekends and bank holidays only, with the family around the site most of the time so that you can count on a helping hand if you need it. The local community shop visits the site each morning to bring fresh bread and basic groceries and the site also sells wood and barbecue fuel (and hires out barbecues or fire buckets). Of course, you’ll be able to grab any extras you need from the wide range of shops in Fordingbridge, 10 minutes’ drive away. There’s wild swimming in the river Avon here, by the way, so you might want to wear your swimming gear. You won’t have to go off site to treat yourself to some forest scenery either, as the site looks over the woodlands and has access to an open heath and forest land where there are New Forest ponies and cows roaming around. If you’re searching for somewhere to be waited on, the site’s local pub is only 15 minutes’ walk away down the road. There are three more that you can get to with a little longer hike, between 45 minutes’ and an hour’s walk away.

What customers say

Campers rave about the gorgeous New Forest setting, with great views & access to walks/wildlife. Spotless facilities (toilets/showers) with hot water. Friendly, helpful staff create a welcoming vibe. Enjoy fire pits, fridge/freezer, and food trucks. Some pitches are stony, minor road noise noted.

Primitive grass campervan, tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked Absolutely stunning location with views stretching miles ahead. Campsite land was ideal - a slim long stretch of land meaning a row of tents either side of a track. Perfect for kids playing with neighbours and easy to see where they were. Closed entrance gate also provided peace of mind for us parents as a completely enclosed site.

Lovely owners, additional facilities of fridges & freezers thoughtfully provided. We really enjoyed the morning coffee van too!

Toilets and showers were clean and generous in size. Another amazing view from the loo!

Pitch sizes were very generous, with room for extra large tent, gazebo, car and sitting space without being on top of your neighbour. No extra charge for gazebo either which was appreciated as shade was necessary in the hot weather!

Will definitely visit again: a fabulous site and perfectly located!

Primitive grass campervan, tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked The site is in a nice position in the New Forest and has great facilities - clean and well-tended showers and loos, a coffee van, and some delicious and good value pizzas on the Saturday night. The staff were lovely and very organised - they have a great system for rubbish. The pitches were large and we liked the area we were in but were both very happy we weren't in the main field because it felt very exposed and quite crowded.

Disliked We were expecting a quiet site but there was a large, very noisy group at the bottom of the main field. Quite expensive, but my daughter really wanted to go to the New Forest.

Liked Very friendly and personable, a warm welcome. Creates a lovely atmosphere for the campsite. Thank you 😊😊

The toilets and showers are the best. So clean and bright and spacious and fast hot water. Really couldn’t ask for anything more.

The views from the pitch are fabulous. Made even better with the riot of reds at sunset

Being able to have a campfire have real charm to the evening

Pizza on some evenings and good coffee first thing. Yay 🙌

Liked Everything! Lovely pitch in the woodland. Friendly, helpful staff. Clean facilities, hot showers. Great location and lovely to hear the call of a nightjar at night.

Disliked Not much space for ball games without encroaching on someone's space.
