What customers say
Friendly vibe, helpful staff, beautiful views. Pods & pre-pitched tents available (pods have solar, soon mains power). Clean facilities generally, but some hot water/cleanliness issues reported. Kid-friendly activities, though not always as advertised. Noise from nearby roads/trains. Some felt it's better for school groups than families.

Disliked A bit noisy at night with the road and railway line nearby.

Very friendly space, best for groups.
Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Staff was great. There were lots of activities for our children. And the fridges for campers was a nice extra
Disliked Maintenance felt a bit reactive. It was a bit noise with planes cars and trains to hear.

We would return.
Anonymous Ready tent (five person)
Liked Clean facilities. Limited number of tents. Ready made tents. Lots of space. Fridge and freezer facilities.
Disliked The location is quite noisy with car, train and air traffic throughout the night. Maybe activity options for under 5s?

Great site in good location, will be back
Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked We had a wonderful stay at Tile Barn, toilet and shower block was clean and large. Lovely big site to explore for the children and lots of space to play. Great options for bringing your own tent or the pods or pre pitched tents as well.

Nice site but not for me
Ready tent (five person)
Liked Staff were great and friendly with a smooth check in. Fridges were great for space and use of a kettle very handy. Tent size was great for 4 of us for 4 nights and allowed to add gazebo for extra space.
Bathroom block generally clean, just the usual campsite grass etc walked in.
Walking distance to Brockenhurst train station and town...approx 15-20mins.
Disliked For paying more for a pitched tent, I was disappointed that the tent was soo close to the road boundary, plans trains and lorries all through the night which eased at 1am.
Freezers advertised were not available due to large party on site, meaning all others couldn't use this facility, meant a few tweaks to dinner plans and struggle to keep ice packs frozen for own cool box.
Although not the sites fault. Disruptions at 1 am through older kids presumably from the larger camp bashing the pre pitches tents and running away. Half hour of laughs for them but over an hour of settling the youngest for me.
If you like a hot shower than this is a great place, however showering in burning hot water was a bit much. A lower temperature would be appreciated as you cannot adjust yourself.

Anonymous Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Onsite facilities were clean, easy check in process and secure car park away from the tent pitches.
We were cycling from the campsite after check out and thankfully were able to use to shower and car park facilities after leaving our pitch.
Disliked Only downside was the showers which you couldn’t change the temperature on. They were very hot however this was only a minor issue.
