I've stayed at Black Knowl 3 times in 3 weeks! I much prefer it to the Centenary Club site, due to being smaller, nicely laid out, and good access to walks from the site gates. It's a 2 mile, 35 minute walk into Brockenhurst where you can visit cafes, Tesco Express, butcher, baker, or the lovely Forest Park Hotel. I had a very enjoyable lunch in their newly laid out formal gardens, drinking Pimms and having water brought for my dogs, whilst sitting under a big parasol. The wood fired pizza wagon that comes to site on a Saturday (1730-1930) is fabulous! Really tasty and around £8.50 for a 10" pizza. The small downside is the tiny dog toileting enclosure, but if your dogs are fine offlead around the ponies, then it's no trouble to walk out of the gates to let them sniff and run. Very popular area for cyclists, with mapped and signposted gravel cycle routes.
