Having never camped before, I didn’t know what to expect however, I wasn’t disappointed and it won’t be my last. The website was easy to navigate and the site sent plenty of informative information via email prior to our arrival. I felt well informed and was able to organise myself and my two children well in advance. The site was dead easy to find and was well signposted. Thanks to the information sent prior to arriving, navigating our way to our pitch was simple too. Once set up, we took a little stroll and found all the amenities we needed to complete our camping trip, close by; clean washing up facilities, toilets and showers plus laundry room with a very handy chest freezer which was free to use. A big thank you to Juliette who served me in the shop; she answered my questions professionally and politely and, exercised first class customer service when she came to my aid with a nail file! Thank you Juliette. Although I have nothing to compare it with, I’d give the site 10/10 for our experience and we will definitely be returning.

We had a lovely holiday at this site. We came with 2 dogs so found the dog walking path very helpful. Good shops close by and not far to drive into the New Forest and beaches. Staff were really helpful when we changed our booking slightly. The site and facilities were kept really clean. We are definitely planning on returning to this site. A suggestion, it would be lovely to be able to pre order croissants/cakes/fresh bread at the shop for collection the next day.

Park was well set up and clearly signed. Tent pitches are large- great size! Well maintained pitches. Toilet facilities were in good condition, though did think it would have been good if there was an additional clean during the day. Or signs up asking people to clean up showers/basins after using. As if you timed it wrong, there would be left with toothpaste eventually white and soap mess in showers, with dirty feet marks all over.

Thank you very much for your review, John. We are pleased to hear that you appreciated the size and maintenance of our pitches. We note your comments regarding the showers etc... and will give this due consideration, although despite regular cleaning this can occur occasionally. We hope to welcome you again in the future.

A great location with fab surroundings, local walks, pubs and coastline a short drive away. We stayed here 8 nights. A clean and tidy site, toilets and showers were always clean. Grounds were tidy and well looked after. The only reason I didn't give a five star for facilities was the 'park' was good, but a little investment in a new updated one would make it super duper. The fishing lakes were great for afternoon fishing.

Many thanks for your kind review Andi - we are glad that you found all our facilities as you did, as we work hard to maintain this standard. We value your feedback and give all comments due consideration. We hope to be able to welcome you back in the future. The Hill Cottage Farm Team.

Nice site with wide areas. However, we were not aware of the coffee shop or shop until we opened their website - the day before we were leaving! There was no signage and we didn't see a single member of staff, so this information wasn't relayed to us. The facilities are good and clean but it would have been nice to have seen a member of staff!
Site's response
Thank you for your review, Rachel - and for mentioning the size of the pitches and the facilities being good and clean. With reference to your other comments, we do have a very large sign outside of the main facilities building showing 'Reception & Shop' and a swing sign showing when the shop is open or closed - we have up to 6 staff on site all day everyday maintaining the facilities, keeping the grass and hedges trimmed, the toilets cleaned and refreshed and manning the shop and reception - some days the shop and reception are open until 11pm. We are sorry that you didn't locate the shop and reception, as all of this information was included in your 'self check-in/information email' so that you were able to drive directly to your pitch and then explore at your leisure. We do hope that you will return in the future and will benefit from all of the facilities we have to offer. The Hill Cottage Farm Team.

Small site, family orientated and dog friendly, very nice people. Facilities are cleaned regularly. The pitch was big easy to set up and parking the car. 30 minutes to the beaches, easy access. Nice and green area and quiet. Highly recommended.

This was our first experience in our new caravan. The site was clean and the staff were friendly. The woodland walk was great and my dog and children really enjoyed it there. The only thing I'd suggest as a possible improvement is that the play area could be bigger. There is limited equipment and quite often my children didn't get a turn. A few more items in the park would have made the whole experience perfect.

Thank you for your lovely review Charlotte, we are glad to hear that you had a good experience in your new caravan - and we take on board your suggestion regarding the play area. The Hill Cottage Farm Team.

Site was well maintained and had up to date facilities. Toilets were clean and showers were good with constant hot water. The staff were friendly, polite and very helpful. The site was in a location within 2 mins drive of Fordingbridge and it has a lovely river where you can paddle in. It was 5 mins drive from New Forest and all surrounding towns are within 30 to 40 mins drive so excellent location. The small shop on site did basics but was a nice addition to the site. This often stayed open until 11pm at night. Plenty of walks around the area. On site, there was an information room with leaflets on things to do in the area as well as printouts of walks and cycle rides. We will definitely recommend and will hope to go back in the near future . This site catered for everyone including children with a small children's play area.

Lovely site, modern facilities and clean showers and toilets. Could be improved with a shop and/or cafe on site.
Site's response
Many thanks for your review, Lisa. We're really pleased you found the facilities modern & clean, but we're disappointed that you did not find the shop which is open 7 days a week between the hours of 9am & 5pm, and up to 11pm on certain days. Pictures can be found in the gallery on our website. We hope we can welcome you back in the future so that you can experience all that we have to offer. The Hill Cottage Farm Team.

Sadly the restaurant was not open and this did affect my score as the closest pub/shop is a good 25 mins walk away through woods and uneven ground. To walk around the road you can add another 20 minutes to the walk. However, the fully serviced pitches are the best we've seen and the modern facilities are true credit to this beautiful site.
Site's response
Thank you for your review, Julie, we are glad you appreciated the private, Fully Serviced pitches, the modern facilities and our beautiful site. The woods are a nice area to walk with/without a dog, especially if you are not in a hurry and yes the ground is a little uneven in places. However, the pub and/or shop at the other side is often seen as a nice reward! We hope to welcome you back in the future.

What a superb site, possibly the best we've stayed in yet! We were on a large, fully serviced pitch with so much space, the dogs loved it! Very quiet and peaceful and the facilities were really modern, clean and well maintained with warm showers. A fabulous dog walk through the site and then into the adjoining woodland. Would recommend The George pub in Fordingbridge for a lovely meal by the riverside, very dog friendly and even had its own doggy menu! And the public park there has a little swimming pool for the kids too. Perfect for exploring the New Forest and the lovely market town of Ringwood. We will definitely be back next year.

We were looking for a nice quiet campsite and that's exactly what we got. It was a family-friendly site with kids everywhere, but they were all super well behaved and our dog loved all the belly rubs she got. We would definitely return and will most definitely be recommending it to friends.

Lovely clean quiet site. Superbly positioned for the New Forest, Poole etc. The toilet block and showers were of a great standard. The grass pitch which we stayed on was massive, as were all the other grass pitches. Plenty of water stations. Easy check in and check out. Well worth a visit.
