Great all round club site

My seventh time visiting Rookesbury this year and it just keeps it high standards. The wardens are first rate, hard working and friendly. For me travelling solo for my visits it is certainly value for money and when it reopens next March I will be returning

Clean, well-run site

Second time here, this time only for 1 night. Large rural site amongst trees with grass and hedge separating groups of pitches. Pitches are mostly quite generous and well spaced out. Very clean facilities, well organised site, dog walking field, hose to rinse your bike or dog, adequate wifi for basic stuff, shop and friendly welcome in reception. We had a choice of a couple of pitches, site was maybe half full in early Oct (confined to the hardstanding pitches). So quiet when we were there, we overslept until after 8am! One of the best CMC sites in our opinion, very dog friendly, but you will need a vehicle or bike to sightsee in the area; you can walk to Wickham through woods and fields, about 30 mins away though.

Our lovely weekend getaway

This site, we have visited many times. It is always clean and tidy has a wonderful walk through Forest of Bere to the village of Wickham, were quirky shops are plentiful and a good choice of Bars and restaurants. The current wardens are very friendly and welcoming and work very hard to keep the site to a very high standard. (Thank you) Highly recommended for all ages although worth noting that phone signal can be hit and miss for those teenagers that cannot survive without tech. Thank you for another wonderful weekend and see you again real soon

Another excellent stay

Brilliant pitch sizes - excellent site facilities, ablutions, onsite park and football posts, clean and tidy site with clean, rodent free bin areas Respectful visitors help maintain a respectful approach from kids in a busy area Ease of access to 100 Acre Woods at the back door/gate for beautiful walks and keeping the pet dog and visiting grandkids happily worn out..! Convenience to the local village of Wickham for a good Indian meal at Kuti's or the village square PH in The Kings Head Love it - really Love it - absolutely love it. Thank you

Great Wardens

This was, I think, my 5th or 6th stay this year and apart from a little hiccup on arrival due to a rally occupation and pitches taken out of service, we drove around the site 4 times trying to locate a hard standing. Wardens were great in identifying available pitches. This is in my mind a flagship site with wonderful friendly staff

As good as ever

We stayed at Rookesbury Park last year and it was brilliant. It was the same this year apart from the weather. Last year hot this year cold so it was nice to go into warm shower blocks! I said last year that this was one of the best places we've stayed at and my opinion hasn't changed. Clean, tidy and well run. The staff are friendly and welcoming plus the owl in the forest hoots all night. Just great.

Dog paradise and quite nice for humans too

All the usual CMHC cleanliness and maintenance. Rookesbury Park is a large site with lots of open space but sectionalised so doesn't feel huge. Its very well drained and grass pitches are great though leveling blocks are needed. The site is in the middle of a large wooded estate which is criss crossed by public footpaths and many varied walking opportunities. There is loads to do for everyone in the local area. Whilst the site feels a bit remote it's only a couple of miles from Wickham and small supermarkets pubs and food outlets. It is also possible to hear the M27 when the wind is in the wrong direction. This can be a bit intrusive to the purists of peace and quiet. We don't have children so its difficult to say if its good for families but there's a large field with play equipment. The site has great facilities for dogs and I'd give it 5* from the dog perspective. There is a huge cut grass exercise field with deer fencing and as a bonus there are various dog pit stops dotted about the site for quick toilet breaks, it's really thoughtful because last thing at night I don't want to go to a big field in the dark. There's also a dog shower. The site being spacious is a bonus for dog owners because you can get space between you and your neighbours. I couldn't give 5* due to terrible connectivity. I expect mobile signal to struggle due to location in the woods but WIFI? The club free wifi was terrible and we were pitched about 20 yards from the aerial. I wasn't prepared to buy the premium without assurance it was 100% better than the free. In this day and age its poor. Club needs to sort it out. overall its a 4+ really. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and we will return.

This stop wasn't planned. Great for a ferry crossing from Portsmouth harbour.

We had to cancel our one night stay at Hunter's Moon due to our cancellation of our crossing from Poole. Due to a technical issue with one of Condors ferries. The alternative crossing was from Portsmouth 2 days later. We managed to secure a pitch with the help of the wardens from Hunter's Moon. Who were fantastic and understanding. When we arrived on site, the warden that served me knew who I was and our story. The wardens in the office were all friendly and welcoming and understood our situation. The grounds were well kept. Great play area for the kids. Only issue that I had was the state of the toddler room (no fault of the wardens). The first night that I went to use it, the bath was full of DUPLO lego, towels on the changing table, teething toys on the floor and the loo brush in the sink. My first thought was that a young family had left their stuff behind in a rush and that they could go back at some point to collect their belongings. The next morning the stuff was still there. I had to get my 5 years old showered in the ladies (which isn't a problem). I reported this to the female warden at the office. She apologised, but it's not thier duty to look into the toilet and shower blocks after people have used them. If the allocated time to clean is between certain times then I don't expect them to go back in every 2/3 hours. I think sometimes people treat the sites as dumping grounds, which isn't right, members or not. Have some respect for others, please!!!
