This has to be the best site in the club all made even better by the staff who are second to none. If you want that little haven in the New Forest this is the place , and a great place for that peaceful walk with great scenery on your doorstep, just a shame we couldn't of stayed a little longer.
peaceful site
Stayed at this site for 3nights from 20th April, lovely well thought out site. Great playground for kids and 2 very good dog walk areas - not just a small strip of grass but good size and interesting walks. Very friendly and helpful wardens who freshly bake croissants and baguettes every morning - nice touch.
Toilet block well thought out, especially with the family bathroom
Can't wait to get back there for another peaceful, tranquil stay
Good stop over
Stayed here on our way down to the West Country.
Very nice clean and tidy site, with very welcoming staff.
Has also a great dog excerise area which was very handy for us.

Had a wonderfull long weekend stay.
Had a wonderful long weekend stay at this site, we picked the week end after Easter so there was still some chilled activity going on from Easter but I must say the children were very well behaved and it was good to see that their parents had made them wear safety hats while using their cycles.
Come the Sunday evening when we returned to the site after a day out the transformation was something else, no children and lots of new caravans set up, this in turn made the site feel like an adult only site……. very nice but even I missed the sound of the children but there again I am hard to please :-)
The facilities are first class and the site is very, very well kept, the children’s playground was just right for our granddaughter (3 years old) when she and her parents visited for the day.
The site has a very friendly and welcoming staff (to all the staff) thank you guys you were great.
We will be back.
Good Family Site
Nice clean site with good facilities and a great location for exploring the New Forest and the Dorset coastline. Found the hard standing site difficult for underfloor comfort in awning and tough to drive standard pegs into ground - had to purchase steel pegs from the site office. WiFi is also variable, which is fine if you want to avoid the Internet but most don't!!
Overall a good site & I will visit again but select a grass pitch next time 🙂
Great for families
Stayed the week after Easter with our grandsons, our 3rd visit in 2 years.
The site is kept very clean and tidy and is well looked after by the great team of wardens who always had a cheery word and smile for us and all the children. As expected the toilet blocks were spotless with plenty of hot water.
Only one thing marred a lovely week, the irresponsibility of the few dogs owners who failed to pick up after their dogs in the vicinity of their pitch, which is then left to the wardens to sort out when the pitch is vacated.
I also made an observation to the office that the road markings needed re-doing as cars were driving up no entry roads,
All in all a lovely site and we will return.
Wonderful site if you don't mind dogs
We Stayed 21/04 through to 25/04. The site is very well maintained with nice friendly staff on reception. I do not recommend purchasing the Wi-fi, I have tried it twice on previous visits and found that you can pay easily enough but thereafter the service either crashes or is intermittent.
As with all sites there are lots of dogs which can be distracting, usually they are well controlled but there will be intermittent barking throughout the day, perhaps there could be a dog free section?
Oh yes and one dog relieved itself in the roadway adjacent to us which was not good, owner must not have noticed!
Will stay again though.
Lovely location, shame others spoiled it
We stayed here from 17 to 21 April, going home a day earlier than planned and paid for.
Pros
Well situated
Very clean and well kept
Shower blocks spotless
Cons
No control over noisy caravanners
The dog areas are okay for a quick toilet break but not for a good walk and there is nowhere to walk them from site.
Wireless is very poor. Once again, paid for a days Caravan Club service only to find that I could not access it most of the time and got less than an hours use. This is not the first site this has happened to me on but it's funny how you can always access it for them to take payment! I will not use it in future.
Unfortunately our holiday was ruined by two other groups of holidaymakers who spent most of the time racing around on bikes, scooters, a motorised scooter and another three wheeled vehicle, constantly shouting and squealing. They came past us every couple of minutes at some points, setting one of our dogs barking so we closed the curtains so the dog couldn't see them but he could still hear them so we spent the whole time trying to keep the dog quiet. Sitting outside or in the awning was fruitless if we wanted a bit of peace and quiet.
The wardens response as we were leaving was "Well, they are on holiday too", which is fair enough but it got too much! On one day they brought two other carloads of friends on site and that was it for us. We packed up the following day and left. My understanding from the rules we were provided that you, or anyone visiting you, are not to annoy or inconvenience other caravanners. The children never used the childrens play area, choosing instead to race around the roads. We weren't the only ones upset by this either.
We are not anti children. In fact, there were many other children on site who rode their bikes around but without the shouting and hollering associated with these particular families and the parents joined in too so clearly had no consideration for anyone else.
We are now considering our CC membership as we will likely stick to adults only sites in future.
All in all, I was very disappointed.
Another great holiday.
Third time here great for families my daughter who's 15 still loves this site, great for walks and dogs. Friendly, clean always helpful wardens on site and to top it all off great weeks weather again highly recommend to all members some pitches can get noise from children but it's a family site so you would expect that.
Carl, Dawn and lizzy.
Really good site that is well run
Good site in lovely location, run by a friendly and enthusiastic team - we really enjoyed our stay thank you.
Paul, Pauline, Jo & Alex.
