Another Decent CC Site!
We stayed here for 2 nights for a short weekend break. Having only ever stayed at one other CC site (Black Knowl) we weren't really sure what to expect - certainly Black Knowl sets a high standard, but we weren't sure if this was a one off or it is the same for all CC sites. Well, we weren’t disappointed! Black Knowl is pure tranquillity; total peace and quiet – impossible to beat I think. However, the New Forest Centenary Site, whilst isn’t quite as tranquil (we could hear cattle grid hums and as there are roads pretty much running around the entire boundary of the site, you do hear the related noise, but being in the forest they aren’t busy roads). The site, however is better equipped, more modern and has a less “isolated” feel to it than Black Knowl. Facilities are excellent (good sized shop which stocks local Bransgore Butchers products as well as lots of other essentials and non-essentials), pitches are generally immaculate and service points are very clean and well-kept too. My only complaint is that next to our electric hook up post there was some dog poo – I informed reception when I went back to tell them which pitch we had chosen and they were rather annoyed at the fact a fellow member had left the pitch like this. He said he would “try” to clean it up on his way past next time, but it was still there when we left. It wasn’t too much of an issue for us as it was right next to the post and out of our sight, but still, an unpleasant thing to have around. Oh and our particular electric post had a faulty light bulb which was flashing on and off all the time at night.
