Nice space, great activities, bike rides, staff are lovely, everything you need is there for the family.

If they could fix the football pitch/court to the side of the main building it’d be perfect.

The pitches are large and everyone was respectful of the curfew times for being quiet. The bike trails are great.
Staff are friendly and helpful. We’ve been coming for the last 10 years and will be returning again.

The lack of signage warning that they are i by bike trails. We saw 2 large families on the red bike trail and it could have been messy.
Shop could be better stocked but it had the essentials and plenty of ice which was a saviour!

Big sized pitches, you can definitely fit 2 tents and a car if you wanted! Nice location in the forest and nice short walking trails around. There is a cute cafe which serves basic coffees, croissants, pizzas. The food was just ok, not amazing.

The forest part of the campsite needs an update. There are very few toilets/showers for the amount of pitches and facilities are ok but not that clean. No lights at the washing up station so it was difficult in the dark. The sports courts are tired and a bit broken. The kids play area nearest to us was also a bit broken but there were other areas around to access so it didn't matter too much. Finally, the site is underneath a flight path so there are very low flying planes disturbing the peace, including at night.

The staff were so lovely and accommodating and flexible of our changing plans too!
This was right in the New Forest with walks right on your doorstep. Amazing!
The clean site and lovely atmosphere. The facilities were brilliant. Lots to do! Brilliant adventure activities and loved the giant chess as well. We also loved the fact we were camping within part of a wood and loved those trees in particular (Scott’s Pine?). There was an additional part to the campsite that we hadn’t known about until walking down to the small lake and seeing it - it had little shade but seemed full of families which was nice and also had a park by it similar to our campsite.

Nothing about the site itself but the overflying planes can be loud (not during the night though).

We stayed over the bank holiday weekend which was full but it didn’t feel over busy and there was still plenty of space for kids to play , it felt safe for kids to be at the park. Activities we did the people running them were amazing , encouraging and fun. The cafe and shop were very reasonably priced too. Yes there were aeroplanes going over quite low but kids thought it good to see and there was none at night.

The showers and toilets were dated and male and female together but they were clean and cleaned at least 3x a day.

We stayed in the escape part of the campsite. Very spacious pitches. Kids loved the bike trails and park. We didn’t book any activities on this occasion but hope to camp here again.

Nothing

Great site, beautiful, well kept, lots to do.

Great place to keep the kids active and engaged with all the activities available. Good facilities and large camping area. Beautiful surroundings and also close to things to do off site

Going home

The location was fantastic apart from being in the flight path of the airport but that didn't bother us. Loads for the kids to do at a cost, bring your bikes as there's trails to go round. Fishing was fantastic loads of carp, dont use maggots because you won't have time to rest with all the little roach in there! They feed off the top soon as you put in.

Don't expect a green field to pitch on, cause its a dust field, you need a metal hammer and rock pegs as its like going into concrete.

The space, the activities, the shop and the cafe.

The fact that a lot of people clearly didn't read the site rules before going and they didn't seem to be rigorously enforced. i.e: Not loud music on site. loads of people not following that one! At least 90% of people followed the quiet after 10pm rule which meant toe kids could sleep! There are mixed toilet/shower facilities on this site which made it easier for families to use but there were men going to the loo with the cubical doors open... Awkward! and there were club groups using the facilities where the kids were not supervised and left the area completely saturated and very muddy. Oh and be warned its on the Bournemouth flight path.....
