The location of this site is great for walking the dogs, though the dog walk area and wash down facilities that are going to be installed will be great. There is not a lot for kids to on site, but if they are here with their parents and want to ride their bikes on the forest tracks, one of which they can ride off road into Brockenhurst that's great, BUT I do agree that it can be annoying and dangerous for the children if they are set loose to ride around on their own. Lots to do and great pubs and coffee houses all round the area. Try the Turf Cutters at East Boldre, a great Forest pub that welcomes well behaved dogs.... and get an ice cream at Hatchett Pond on the way back to the site. Great Wardens, friendly and helpful. We were surprised that the site overhaul had not taken place yet, but look forward to visiting again next spring and seeing the new facilities in use.
