Well Run Working Farm Site
On first arrival it can be a little confusing finding the CAMH field, as there is a bypass loop around the other houses leading up to the farm, then you have to drive through the actual farm to get to the field.
Once on site, it is very spacious, and very well kept, as is the rest of the farm. The owners are friendly, but not to the point of being overwhelming. If you're happy with everything, they leave you to get on with it, but are always there to offer help if needed.
During the day time it can be very busy, as it is very much a working farm. For some it may be a bit too much, but for others, especially with kids, can be fantastic. You will see Robert expertly driving all sorts of farm machinery, sheep being moved around with the help of working sheep dogs, and cows spying through the hedge on what you're having for breakfast. Never a dull moment!
Once the farm work draws to a close, its a very peaceful site, and a lovely place to be. There's plenty of space to walk the dog, there are picnic tables to use in the field, and there is a lovely little heated swimming pool to use. Cost is 4 quid, but for that you get sole use for a whole hour.
Location is spot on too. Its less than five minutes drive into the forest. About fifteen into Romsey, and around twenty into Southampton City centre. If you want to explore the area, you couldn't really find a much better location.
If I were to be asked to point out any negatives, it would be the following: The toilet disposal point is a bit of a trek to get to. On a number of occasions I've come across dog mess in and around the field. As far as I can tell, this wasn't from caravanners pets, but from the farm dogs which mostly run loose.
In my opinion the positives far outweigh the negatives though, and I would most definitely come again, and recommend to others
