Short stay

Very pleasant rural site with our pitch on the lower of two areas with nice views of the countryside. Pitches seemed to be generous with a good range of sheltering trees and hedges. The toilet block is undoubtedly dated and in need of modernising but despite this the wardens still managed to keep the block clean and tidy. This slightly negative comment regarding the toilet facilities probably needs to be balanced against the very reasonable site charges. The site is well located not only for visiting Winchester but also as a useful stopover point for cross country journeys and for the Southampton and Portsmouth ferries.

Neglected Gem

We stayed here for eleven night in early May 2015.This is an excellent site, extremely well cared for by the obviously dedicated Wardens. It is a pity that the "Club" seem to ignore it. I know others have mentioned road noise aircraft noise, and the crows. Really!! I know of many sites far noisier than this. I would recommend this site to anyone, who likes the countryside, and all that that means. Winchester Cathedral is brilliant. The Watercress line railway is well worth a trip. Portsmouth Historic dockyard amazing! Plus a number of NT properties.

Excellent location

Morn Hill is a site that we had second thoughts about visiting having ready some of the reviews, e.g. the toilet blocks. I'm glad we ignored them ! Morn Hill is conveniently situated for Winchester, the South Downs Way and Isle of Wight/International ferries. There is 1/2 hourly bus service into Winchester (12mins) and supermarket with fuel within 2 miles. Well priced meals available at pubs (2 miles) in village of Easton. The site is split level (either is good but there is more road noise on some areas of the upper site. All pitches are grass but the chalk of the area ensures excellent drainage. The shower cubicles are a little cramped in comparison to other sites. BUT don't let the shower obsessives put you off this site. Its lovely and we shall return.

Satisfied if a little disappointed!

Having read previous reviews before booking we were not surprised with the overall facilities of the site, location, and upkeep. We were aware there could be noise from the road, especially from the manic motorcyclists and there was, but we had a pleasant long weekend with no problems. However, there are things that could be done to ensure even better reviews. A couple of examples - as commented on by many other people, the showers are too small and too few which left us wondering what it would be like when full up - also, although pleasant enough the wardens need to consider offering members far more information on arrival other than just a map of the site! There is a comprehensive collection of pamphlets in the information shed but some basic details in hand would have been useful. Don't misunderstand - we had a good weekend and everything at Morn Hill was fine - however it has the potential to be better than just fine though!

Beautiful spot, immaculately kept!

Morn Hill was perfect for our Fri/Sat stop over near Winchester. It's a wee gem of a sight, in perfect condition with very helpful and friendly wardens. Only a couple of miles off the M3 and in beautiful surroundings, we felt relaxed as soon as we arrived. We shall return.

Could be better.

We stayed at this site for the Bank Holiday weekend. The wardens are very friendly and helpful, and the site is kept to a high standard. The toilet / showers are very clean but could do with being updated. The only complaint, which was no fault of the wardens, was an irresponsible dog owner with four dogs. On two occasions that we witnessed the dogs were not kept on leads and allowed to poo and wee, one time on an awning. They didn’t do anything until I approached them to inform them that their dogs had got out. Also on arrival I also nearly ran over a dog as it also was not on a lead. Maybe it should be pointed out to members and non members that dogs should be on leads at all times when they arrive at the site.

Excellent Site

Having read previous reviews we were almost put off going to this site. Thank goodness we decided to make up our own minds from our own experience. The staff are helpful, friendly and were quick to offer any help needed when we had a medical emergency. The ablutions are kept spotlessly clean with plenty of hot water at a very good pressure and the disabled shower room was kept lovely and warm. We can't fault the facilities. The site is next to a dual carriageway on a roundabout so you can hear the vehicles but we were situated on the third level down and did not find this intrusive but then again we didn't spend our time looking for problems!! The aircraft noise is so minimal and lets face it, quick, that we had to really concentrate to notice the planes much to our disappointment being keen plane lovers. The site is kept clean with the usual caravan club attention to the pitches and the grass kept short. The site is ideally situated for visiting Winchester and The Beaulieu Motor Museum. We will definitely be back as we never made it to the Steam Train. Don't let others put you off trying this site, give it a go and make up your own minds. Loved the fish and chip van on a Friday too. Thanks to all.

Excellent stop over site on the way to the Isle of Wight

We stayed over one night on the way to the Isle of Wight. Excellent site, clean facilities and friendly staff. It is just off a roundabout and the signage could perhaps be a bit better as there are two roads close together and you need to pick the correct one. Also need to be aware that when you leave the site you join a road before you enter the roundabout. Unfortunately some of the road users seem to go very fast and so extra care is needed on the approach to the roundabout. With care access is OK.

One night only

We stayed here for only one night. We had problems with our mover and the wardens were really helpful in recommending we use a choice of sites that we could drive straight on to. Lovely cake from the reception. Facilities very clean and welcoming. Only problem, we had difficulty following the final directions and missed the turning. Will definitely go again.
