Excellent site within the beautiful New Forest

I met friends here for a one night stop. The site was busy as it was mid school holidays so lots of families. The welcome was friendly and all the staff were positive and happy despite the number of visitors. The facilities were spotless at all times and there was never a queue for anything. Yes children were playing and riding their bikes around but none were rude or too noisy. Impressively at 10pm the whole site went completely quiet as if someone had turned the "be quiet" switch on. Great dog walk (two of them) within the site. Outside the site was endless walks around the New Forest (turn left out of the gate and just up the road). The New Forest ponies are everywhere not that that was a problem for my two. We had a great evening dining alfresco having had a good walk in the Forest. I thoroughly recommend a truly excellent site.

Flag Ship site never disappoints!

Everything about this site is First Class with the exception of wifi which is possibly the worst of any site we've visited. Managed about 12 mins internet time during our 12 night stay! Total waste of time trying to even get on it. Staff , site cleanliness, facilities, dog area in fact everything else second to none. Please sort out wifi,some of us do need to stay connected while away.

Brilliant

Just got back from a few days staying here, been before. Lovely clean facilities , staff members very polite and friendly. Grass constantly being cut, and kept tidy. If you see tables and chairs on pitches as mentioned by some reviews, it's because they have motor homes and have gone out for the day.

50good/50 bad

We have given this site a 50/50% review. 1.very good service with a smile on reception and very accommodating staff. 2. Very large site and clean 3. Grass cut every day and clean toilets 4. 2 x nice areas for dogs exercise 5.good size child play area. Bad points 1.people leaving chairs ect on hardstanding to save pitches for other people.(We are not Germans by the pool) 2.disabled pitches by the toilet blocks great.but no bin area or chem empty point near.so u have to take it miles away.to empty bins.bit silly for a disabled person 3.1 large and 1 smaller toilet block (dated) for 300 units. 4 grass area unsuitable if raining due to bad drainage.causing caos as they where unusable .so it's free for all in the look for a hard standing.especially when some are being kept by others. 5.no footpath directly from site.just either walk on the road (beware of the high speed of cars).or the grass verges 6. Hardstandings with overgrown by grass.some didnt have enough stones so was down to what looked like concrete and a teram showing and blowing in the wind. Other points.but non essensial Poor mobile fone coverage.tv reasonable with a booster.rec area for playing but no kites due to overhead cables. We did book a disabled pitch prior when booking.but turned up on site and not reserved.so we had to go on a serviced pitch with a caravan for 1 night and wait for a hard standing to come avail next day.not good when u book a awning pitch and then have to move the next day.mostly because of the people saving pitches for others again.wont be returning

A Huge Site!

Stayed for a week mid July. Absolutely jam packed. Have never experienced such a large site before, but surprisingly peaceful. Positives are the variety of things to do in the area; Bolderwood forest is beautiful to drive through, Milton on Sea is a lovely area to park up and walk and admire the Needles across the water, Exebury Gardens are worth a trip too. Negatives are the rather tired looking facilities which struggled to cope with the usage by so many people (queue for a loo?), and the lack of mobile and wi fi signals. We were also surprised at how early new arrivals are permitted - we saw one arrive at 10.30 and another at 11.15. Having sat in a layby for 45 mins on our journey to arrive on time we find it odd that the Club says one thing in its booklet but does the opposite in practice. Site well maintained and a pleasant atmosphere.

A Wonderful Week !

This was our first visit to this site. It is truly massive with almost 300 pitches. That said, the wardens did a splendid job of maintaining high standards in keeping the site clean and organised. I must say, and as a professional Dog Trainer, that I was really disappointed to see that selfish dog owners had not cleaned up after their dogs in the smaller of the dog excercise areas. It really is an own goal to us dog people and gives folk who dislike dogs ample ammunition to moan. And quite right too. There is absolutely no need for it. Worst of all, is that coming out of the enclosure makes you feel embarrassed as the people coming in think it's you ! Come on dog owners, for goodness sake take some responsibility and have some respect for the wardens ! Anyway, with that moan over and despite it, we had a wonderful week. We were initially booked for 5 nights, and the delightful, lovely Nicola performed miracles to squeeze us in for an extra 2 nights, as the site was packed. Many thanks for that, Nicola. The surrounding areas of beauty within the New Forest are wonderful. Baby foals, calves and piglets walking down the pavements and roads are a spectacle in themselves. A wonderful site all round and a credit to the Club. Nicola and her team are also a great asset to the Caravan & Motorhome Club, and on a site as huge as this one, their wokrload and logistics were extremely demanding. Many thanks indeed, we look forward to coming back in the future.
