Perfect hub for exploring the New Forest

A lovely site, well laid out and sizeable pitches. The toilet block is relatively new and has good facilities - even during extra cleaning times, the wardens open alternative toilets. A fish and chip van visits during the week and was delicious! This really is the perfectly located site to explore the New Forest from - it is about a 35 minute walk into Brockenhurst across on a well trodden foot path where you will definitely see plenty of ponies. Lots of nice pubs and a couple of small shops in Brockenhurst. We walked to Lyndhurst and back and even took a day trip to Poole via train (30 mins from Brockenhurst). Highly recommend and I think this will become our go-to site!

Really love this site

Really love the site, full but peaceful site, really well kept, but lots of character, and straight into the forest for walks and cycles, or a pub meal

1st trip out for 9 months

This was our 1st trip out since 2020. We were a little apprehensive, we need not have been. This was our 1st visit to Black Knowle. The site was wonderful, the wardens were great from start (the queue the book in, in the approach lane) to the time we reluctantly left. The site is in a great location, with great walks and local wildlife is wonderful. The site is clean and beautifully landscaped. The covid precautions were excellent and all visitors respected both those and everybody else. The directions and arrival times are very important please stick to the requirements. We will be returning

Really Friendly Wardens

My wife and I feel we must express our genuine thanks to Tim and his team for the professional and friendly manner with which they manage the Black Knowl site. Tim was organising the queue when we arrived along with the Covid paper work and everything went so smoothly with a very friendly welcome to boot in spite of having his work cut out as many vans arrived together. Although we did not have the need to solicit help from any of the wardens during our stay they always had a friendly greeting whenever we met thus making a good site into a great one. Thank you wardens for making our stay so pleasant.

Lovely secluded campsite

Lovely setting and great facilities. Direct access to forest tracks and the walk to Brockenhurst takes about 50 minutes. Great site for walkers and cyclists. The visiting fish and chip van on a Wednesday is excellent and I also recommend The Buttery in Brockenhurst for coffee and snacks / meals. The site has been almost full on both my visits but the layout makes it feel spacious. The site wardens are friendly and helpful and keep the site immaculate,

Excellent location, very friendly and helpful wardens.

Perfect for cycling and walking around the new forest, you practically fall out of bed straight onto some great walking/cycling trails. Great to see ponies, deer, cattle and even pigs just milling around. Wardens were very friendly and helpful, even through all the difficulties Covid-19 throws at them.

Great to be back at Black Knowl

Just had a quality time last week! We try to stay at least twice pa and were pleased to manage a pitch in these busy times. The weather was kind, the Wardens were As helpful/hardworking as ever ........ with extra work of sanitizing, which was spot on! The site was so well maintained and of course is situated in an outstanding area, for walking, cycling and shops nearby at Brockenhurst. See you ASAP Many thanks

Forest Hideaway

Stayed here for our third visit and yet again were amazed at how lovely this site and in particular this area is. As always the staff are friendly, helpful and knowledgeable despite the lack of patience from some members when booking in. We must give a mention and special thanks to Morris who managed to save our holiday by retrieving one of my wife's wedding earrings that fell into the shower soak away. If you didn't know it you are a super hero according to her. Black Knowl is a super site, borne out by how busy it always is yet is still turned out and run immaculately. Despite Covid-19 trying to spoil our outings CAMC have adapted and provide a safe environment in which we can still enjoy and relax on holiday. The pitches are well maintained and are not on top of one another, it's clean, tidy and the toilet facilities more that adequate given that they have to be restricted. Walk a stones throw from the site and you're in the heart of the New Forrest with all it has to offer and nearby are the towns of Brockenhurst and Lyndhurst both reachable on walks through the Forrest the second being a little longer. All in all a perfect site in a perfect location run by a fabulous team. Thank you T & G

Welcome Break

Bit late writing this review as we had a week there from 16/09 in glorious weather. We absolutely love this site, wardens doing a brilliant job on cleanliness and tidying site. The site is in an excellent location for walking, cycling, touring locally or just lazing about. I did hear a few grumbles about not having enough showers open but you can’t please all the people all the time. I felt sorry for the staff on on the last day we where there when they had a leak in the roof of the shower block but these things happen and no need to stress. We had a great week so Thankyou site team.

Excellent site

We have been coming to this site twice a year staying for 3 weeks a time it is our most favourite site, excellent wardens since 2002. We normally book the last 2 weeks in June and the first week in July, due to the COVID19 we booked from the 5th July for 2 weeks, for us this time of year it was a bit too busy, however, we have just returned from our September Black Knowl which was much quieter
