A WW2 airfield, which was perfect for me as my mum and dad met whilst serving in the RAFVR and WAAF. Rio loved his walk along the old runway and peri-track. Such a warm welcome and the facilities were spotlessly clean. Will be back.
What a great place to stay

This site was great for visiting Milford and Barton on sea. If Corfe castle or Sea age was on your agenda, then it's also a good place to set off from. The facilities are always kept clean, as are the other New Forest sites and it's only let down by some of the people using them, who seem to expect others to clean after them. The staff were friendly and helpful. The aircraft to the local airport stop flying overnight, so it's lovely and quiet.
Very pleased!

On arrival, we asked to be moved to a different pitch due to very wet/muddy ground. We were accommodated with this. Not all rules were abided by, with dogs not being kept on leads, not always keeping 6 meters apart. We went out one day and came back to a caravan and awning tucked in behind us and definitely not the 6 meters. Washing lines being tied between trees! On a positive note the showers/toilets were kept clean with plenty of hot water.

It's a great location but the toilet block is tired and electric hook up wasn't near my pitch? Pricey breakfast items.
Lovely helpful staff, even got offered transport to a town by one of them

Great getaway for a couple of nights. Site was great, pick your own pitch. Forest was great with our dog. Toilet blocks were clean and well maintained, considering the constant use in the height of school holidays. Great you could go and order a takeaway from the site and chips etc. Shop was ok. Definitely going back this year.

Both me and the kids had a wonderful time here. From when we first arrived, the staff couldn't be more helpful. Location is also nice, with walks surrounding the whole site. Facilities are kept very clean, there's a shop selling essentials and even a "takeaway". We will certainly be returning for a longer stay.

This is a nice campsite. Facilities are basic as people have said, but they don't claim to be more than that. The staff work really hard to make sure that the bathrooms are nice and clean, although sadly, there were times when customers left the toilets in a mess, which was a shame. I didn't have much to do with the staff but the people I met were friendly and helpful. We stayed in Dingle Dell which was lovely and quiet for the kids with lots of shady bits. There is a lovely stream and access to the woods for the children to play with too. The kids were a bit disappointed with the playground. It's very small but great for younger ones. I would recommend this campsite, it's in a great location with good access to lovely beaches and towns nearby. The horses and cows just outside are a wonderful attraction too!
