Changes!

We are lucky to have Rookesbury so close to our home and like so many locals, we use it regularly for weekends to longer breaks. However the dynamics of the site is changing for the worse. Sadly Head Warden John and his wife are being moved on by the Club to another site. Their friendly but professional approach is an asset and they will be missed by many. Sadly, we come across some quite miserable wardens on our travels and when appointing, perhaps the Club should realise a welcoming personality is important! Also, the site has been known for its fabulous dog field which has now been halved to accommodate tents (for non-members). During our 12 night stay there was never more than 4 tents pitched but I guess the Club would rather make a few extra pennies than keep members happy! Let's hope the caravan pitches remain 'members only'.  Message to those in head office who aren't caravanners - if it's not broken, don't fix it! Rookesbury is a beautiful site, we like many are sad to see the changes.

I would give it 5 for peace & quiet but the kids on their scooters at 7.30am spoilt the mornings

Fantastic site

Took our Grandson for a weeks holiday to Rookesbury Park knowing that he would enjoy the marvelous play area - swings, table tennis, football pitch AND he certainly did. Site immaculate even in August - well done wardens. Great site to stay at for exploring Gosport, Portsmouth and I.O.W. We will be back.

One of my wives favourites

 Our first trip to this site. The usual very high standards of the Caravan Club are very much upheld at this site. All very clean and well maintained and a pleasure to use. Very friendly and helpful staff, nothing too much trouble. Nice and quiet at night with no roads near to the site. Some pitches do appear to be a little on top of each other but plenty of choice as you do your reconnoissance trip around the site upon arrival. We will definitely be returning.

Quiet peaceful break

I have stayed at this site many times and I have never had a bad experience. I have recently returned from a long weekend break (4 nights) which coincided with the Wickham Festival. The site was full and yet it was so peaceful and relaxing. The facilities are excellent and spotless. Regular rounds are made to change dustbins and clean facilities. The staff were very polite, helpful and, what I think makes a difference, had a smile on their faces. There is no 'clubhouse' or swimming pool or discos - great. There is however a smashing play area for children and this is sited at one end of the camp so you know exactly where to pitch if this is a consideration. The dog walking area is first rate. I love this place.

Peace & Quiet

Stayed here in May 2015. What a gem of a place, quiet, clean and spacious. All facilities were kept spotless and the staff were excellent. There was plenty of room between pitches and large grass areas surrounding each section. Will be returning.

Peaceful

We had a week here and really chilled out and relaxed. We have a Dog and it's nice that the dogs have there own area that they can run around and go mad and not come to any harm. We will be going back.

Lack of communication facilities

Despite this being a beautiful site, run by excellent staff and as usual the washing facilities excellent. All outside communication was impossible. The only public telephone has been removed. Mobile phone signal appalling (and I was aiming to keep in touch daily with my poorly 91 year old father!) and the advertised broadband signal was worse than useless and often not available at all. This despite the kind staff rebooting the router so many times. Staff were tired of hearing about this as so many people had complained. So, if you don't want to be in touch with the outside world while on holiday this site is ideal. However if you have teenage children or like to keep in touch I would suggest you choose another site.
