Morelands Copse Camping

Kedvelték: Really friendly staff and we love the little woodland area

Nem kedvelték: All the toilets were overflowing and unusable. We only said one night but couldn't imagine staying more than one. We go rustic camping a lot but toilets were overflowing with urine and the other when we arrived at 3pm and urine on all over the flooring with no checks/ cleaning even when we left at 11. Cafes and shops 15 minutes away so ran to there to use the facilities.

Kedvelték: It was basic, simple and chilled. Off grid and relaxing. This site has all you need, felt safe for kids to roam and be free and exactly what we all needed

Kedvelték: Loved the big pitches and all the animals. Kids had a wonderful time even in the rain running around the woodland. Liked the freedom and eco vibe that the campsite gave.

Nem kedvelték: It would be better if there were more toilets and showers on site.

Kedvelték: Remote feeling and hospitality

Nem kedvelték: Instructions to find the site we booked could be clearer, but a phone call to the team sorted it so a minor thing really.

Kedvelték: Quirky site. Field and woodland. Friendly managers. Basic rustic shower with a camping loo, a compost loo and standard .portaloo.
Good location for Winchester and Marwell Zoo. Lots of woodland birds. Fields surrounding with horses Mini hairy pigs goats and a couple of rabbits and a chicken coop.

Nem kedvelték: Not well signposted where camp entrance was. 4 sets of gates to open and close each time you want to go out of camp with your car. Understand to keep animals safe but they weren't in the bit where some gates were.
Am used to rustic camping but water points were always well marked.
No idea where the water tap was..luckily there was another camper who told me. It was a walk through the woods and not in the field. Compost loo soon filled up and was unusable. The seat was very high and bare wood scratched my arse!
Was disappointed there was no bushcraft sessions.
It's a shame because it's a nice site..at least 1 camper said they wouldn't return due to fed up no signage where water was..too far away..only 1 tap that seemed to also supply the 1 shower when it worked. In 5 days I never got to use it due to either not working or someone in it. That also meant couldn't use the nicest loo as it was in the same stall.

I think most problems could be solved with good signage.. doesn't need to be huge..little wooden ones etc.. a way to water..a sign saying the big fire pit and shack kitchen area was communal. Most people stayed away as thought it belonged to the nearby shepherd hut.
There's nothing majorly bad about this place..theyc3 worked hard to build it up so far.. but the lots of little niggles added up.

Kedvelték: Peaceful surroundings right in the middle of woodland. All the wildflowers. Hot tub which was setup for us. How cosy and romantic the Shepherds hut was with bedding, gas heater blankets, torch and candles. The outdoor kitchen was equipped with tea/coffee/milk and a kettle/stove with gas. Very close drop toilets which were clean and had toilet paper. We did the Shawford Down loop walk which was so varied and exactly what we were looking for then we treated ourselves to a great meal at Fisher’s Pond pub a couple of minutes drive away. Heard owls at night and woken with the bird chorus with woodpeckers. It was exactly what we were looking for to have a break.

Nem kedvelték: It was a little tricky to contact when I first made the booking months ago but they were really available just before and for the duration of our stay with staff on site checking we were ok.
