Why stay here ...

Amberwood CL is situated on the Northern fringe of the New Forest National Park with direct access to the National Trust Commons and Forest where the horses, cattle, pigs and donkeys graze.

Our site is trying to capture the spirit of how caravanning used to be, a large manicured grass lawn with woodland and wild flower meadows and an abundance of wildlife rarely seen in one place, ideal if you just want to sit back and read a book or maybe cast a line in our well stocked coarse fishing lake.

Facilities include a water point, chemical closet disposal point and dry waste area but no EHU although battery charging is available.

Please be aware that we are an adults only site due to the close proximity of the fishing lake.

Our local pub is a short stroll away and also in the vicinity is a service station with a good convenience store.

We are within easy reach of the maritime city of Southampton and the beautiful sandy beaches of Bournemouth.

Facilities on site ...

  • Battery charging
  • Coarse fishing
  • Dog walk from site
  • Recycling facilities
  • TV reception: good
  • Unfenced water

At the edge of the forest.

A well kept off grid CL with easy access to fishing and the New Forest. A great site for course fishing, walkers and cyclist and for those wanting close encounters with the free range farm livstock which roams just outside the site. In spite of the frequent showers, torrential at... Show more

Relaxing stay at a great CL

We loved our 2 night stay here, it's the best site we've stayed at so far. The site is beautifully maintained, with pretty scenery in and around the site. We enjoyed walks around the fishing lake, woods and fields, and the direct access to the New Forest across Cadnam Common... Show more

In the Forest

Excellent site if you enjoy walking in the New Forest. The site provides direct access to Cadnam common, a beautiful area that we'd never been to before, despite having lived on the edge of the Forest and done a lot of exploring over the years. The description on the website... Show more

Secluded spot in an unspoilt part of the New Forest

Amberwood is in the less touristy part of the New Forest and yet is very much IN the forest. You'll likely be greeted with wild horses and donkeys outside the entrance as you pull in. The common with more roaming horses can be directly accessed from the rear of the... Show more

We chose this site for a one night stay on the way to Lymington for the Isle Of Wight Ferry. We arrived late evening on 19th Aug so did not meet Mark the owner. The site was easy to find the grass was neatly mowed and all amenities easily found.... Show more

Great little find.

Lovely large field with a small fishing lake 200m away just inside the New Forest cattle grids. Perfect for us as it enabled us to park up the motorhome and walk for hours on end from the doorstep. Mark keeps the field looking lovely and all the facilities were... Show more
