Why stay here ...

LOW 10% refundable deposit plus FREE cancellations and FREE amendments*

Once the royal hunting forest of William the Conqueror and now a beautiful National Park, Black Knowl Club Campsite has an open, peaceful aspect while being conveniently located within walking distance of Brockenhurst. The Hampshire caravan site is in a wonderful setting in the forest and in October at night, stags can be heard roaring in the forest, along with owls and other forest creatures. The town offers plenty of good quality restaurants, places of interest and shopping treats to keep everyone in the family happy on their holiday.

Black Knowl Club Campsite opens onto over 140 miles of lovely walking track for you to explore in the Forest whether on foot, cycle or horseback. For those with an interest in local history, The Lyndhurst Museum and Visitors' Centre will shed more than enough light on the rich and fascinating past of the Forest. Other nearby attractions include The National Motor Museum at Beaulieu, Exbury Gardens and The New Forest Reptile Centre. For those who dream of taking to the open sea, cruise ships can be viewed on the nearby Solent. You can reach the Isle of Wight via Lymington Ferry and visit Lepe Country Park by the sea with a cafe (seasonal and weekend openings) and children's play area and BBQ area for hire. If you fancy some retail therapy, the Southampton and Bournemouth shopping centres are within easy driving distance from the caravan park and will leave you spoilt for choice.

If you are fancying a take away, Brockenhurst has a great choice. Details of all restaurants, take aways and days out are available in our Information Room.

Pretty much the gold standard

Black Knowl Club Campsite
Not even a pea would survive under the proverbial mattress here; everything has to be perfect and pretty much is kept that way. For a large site it is distractingly peaceful with hardly any evening noise and just lovely fellow campers. Shower stalls thoughtfully designed with large dry areas, toilets have extravagant water saving technology. Perfect position, very rural and a decent walk into Brockenhurst with good shops, restaurants and pubs, and popular with the ponies who can't access the site but patrol the perimeter with great persistence.

Still a gem in a super location

Black Knowl Club Campsite
We are regular visitors to the site and recently spent a lovely two weeks there. It’s all been said before that the location and facilities are excellent. Huge thank you to the hard working team of wardens who have battled wet weather and numerous storms to make sure the site is in tip top condition for us to enjoy. They are a really friendly team who were unfailingly cheerful and welcoming even when battling against issues such as speeding on site which seems to get worse year on year. We are already looking forward to our next visit.

Great Friendly Site

Black Knowl Club Campsite
What a fantastic welcome Megan and I got when we arrived .The site as usual is beautifully maintained.I love the Bug Hotel and the short walks that Peter has copied for less regular visitors then me . My only concern is that before the refurbishment it was a 3 couple run site and after was made a 2 couple plus a groundsman This year no groundsman It is a very busy site and despite how very hard the wardens work they are still cheerful and very willing to help anyone The atmosphere on the site is so welcoming. See you in July

Lovely site in the heart of the New Forest

Black Knowl Club Campsite
I'm not normally a fan of the bigger sites but this one is laid out well and it doesn’t feel as big as it is. Lovely welcome from the helpful team. I didn’t try the various food vans that visit the site but friends said how good they all were. About a two mile walk into Brockenhurst itself, definitely need waterproof footwear if it’s been wet. Some delightful eateries in the village, including one bakery who did amazing takeaway cream teas! No handy bus stops nearby but there are taxis around. Very nice site and I will be back!

Excellent site

Black Knowl Club Campsite
Lovely site, friendly staff, in an excellent location. Step beyond the site entrance and your surrounded by the New Forest. A very busy site but wasn't a problem.
