Away from it all
another wonderful stay at Black Knowl
Wonderful Site
This was our first time on a club site after using CLs for many years, so we were unsure how we would get on with a larger site. We needn't have worried - it was just as good and the kids found friends to play with in no time. The site itself is great - really well drained (we had some very heavy and prolonged rain on a couple nights and we never once had to deal with puddles or mud! The shop had all the emergency essentials you would need and the warden team was amazingly helpful - even to the extent of phoning the Isle of Wight Ferry company to answer a question I had asked. The facilities on the site were great - clean and no shortage of hot water in the showers. Having so many individual cubicles with shower, toilet and basin must have made it a real job to keep on top of - but they were always clean and fresh. The location is brilliant for cycling in the New Forest - which we did lots of, as well as trips to the beaches at Lymington and Christchurch. There are plenty of wild New Forest ponies all around the site - but the cattle grid keeps them off the site itself. We also had a run out to the IoW as mentioned earlier. Nearby Brockenhurst has a Tesco & Sainsbury's for your groceries as well as some lovely pubs and a takeaway. There are also several cycle hire places if you don't take your own. We will definitely be coming back here!
Perfect for nature lovers
