More of a stop over than a peaceful holiday destination

We had never visited this site before and are unlikely to go back. We stayed on the bottom site which is on three tiers. The positives are the 2 friendly female wardens and the very modern, and clean, brand new facilities. Winchester is also a very nice place to visit. But other than a good stop over on the way to ferries on the south coast it doesn’t appeal. The site seems unfinished as the edges are full of weeds and stinging nettles. The dog area is no more than a small piece of fenced off rough land, probably as a afterthought and was also full of stinging nettles. The lower pitches are circled around the cesspit and you could smell it too! All in all, not a very well designed and still needs some attention paid to it.

I'm sorry but I can't agree with your review. It certainly doesn't reflect what we think nor anyone I spoke to in the last weekend there.

We have stayed at Winchester many times and it is a great place for the family to explore the South Coast and other counties like Sussex and Surrey.

The Service pitch areas does not smell at all, and what you probably smelt was farm's near by getting the fields ready for the winter crop, welcome to the countryside.

This site has clearly been refurbished to a very high standard and the site team are amazing to keep it looking lovely and I'm sure it will continue to blossom.

The dog walk has always been where it is and is perfect for an on site facility as dogs clearly need a good run off site every day anyway, I know our two do.

The new grass and hedges have clearly been affected by the dry summer and the area of Winchester is still under a drought and water warning even now.

The club, wardens and contractors have done a great job and we should all be proud on the investment being made for us all to enjoy.
