A beautiful setting, with just the right amount of privacy and space. Showers and toilets were always clean and like new. Great friendly bar area and visiting food vendors.

First experience camping for us and found this little gem! AstroTurf pitches with electric was our choice. We enjoyed the chilled, friendly vibe that the site offers. We took our own BBQ and thoroughly enjoyed the outdoors. Had a few drinks at the on-site bar - embraces happy hour! Pricing was really reasonable for an on-site bar. Food wagon was great also. Was pleased they offered vegan options, as this can be tricky with my diet. Location good with nearby beaches such as Mudeford as well as large Sainsbury's 1.5 miles up the road. Lovely walks onsite. Showers are clean and powerful, and water was always warm. Would recommend if you want to go and totally unwind from lifes hustle n bustle.

Kingfisher Pod

Excellent site, peaceful and not cramped. The pod was all we needed and felt like camping without needing to pitch a tent. We were provided with all the equipment we needed. The toilets and showers were clean with plenty of hot water and we were fortunate to have beautiful weather. The only thing I found difficult was having to climb over my husband to get out of bed but that couldn't be helped. We had a really lovely few days.

Thank you Linda for the great review and recommendation. With regard to the bed, you did choose the smaller of the glamping units. Next time try the shepherd's huts, the lodges, large pods or the yurt where there is space on both sides of the bed for getting in and out. See you again we hope.
Lovely stop for our last night

We picked this site for being in reasonable proximity to our rental return point and weren’t disappointed. It was good to try an off grid plot and this was in the best part of the campsite - a lightly wooded area at the back close to the small lake around which there was a mowed path. The name implies it is a long way from anything; however it is just off the A31 and quite close to Bournemouth airport so was noisier than expected, although there was no intrusive noise during the night. The on-site bar would be a draw as it is not in easy walking distance of a pub. The facilities were great, particularly the continuous showers and lovely hot water and all very clean. All the instructions were clear and detailed. Thank you

A very comfortable site with excellent facilities. The pitch was spacious and well kept. Clean showers and toilets and at least one block always open. A nice bar area. Good food options with the visiting food vans. Fantastic woodland area for walking dogs off lead directly from the campsite. Would definitely visit again.

We were looking for a dog-friendly and adult-only campsite and Back of Beyond was only 40 mins from our home. It was nice and quiet, and just what we were looking for.

Lovely site just off A31 but far enough away to be free of road noise, maybe the odd motorbike in the distance. Wonderful dog secure woods as part of the site. Will definitely return and have already recommended.

A very well thought out campsite. We felt welcomed from the time of booking until we left this morning. The location is perfect for visiting the South Coast, or in our case overnighting before catching the car ferry to Jersey today. We enjoyed Montys Bar for a drink and the fish and chip van is a great idea. The amenities block was very clean, warm and well-appointed. The setting for all the various pitches and the shepherd's huts and yurts is well thought out and carefully landscaped. The wilded areas are lovely for a walk. The bird life all around the campsite is lovely. The whole place is clean tidy and quiet. Great that this is an adult-only, dog-friendly site. We will definitely visit again.

Very nice site and staff, but for us, we would look for sites closer to villages/ towns.

We are glad that you enjoyed your stay. We are 'Back of Beyond' so we are a bit tucked away from the world.

We stayed in Magpie Pod and it was very warm and cosy. The cooking facilities were really good, with two high-powered gas stoves, and the pod was equipped with a kettle, tea, coffee etc. The grounds are lovely and quiet, with surrounding woodland and fields. (Some very, very low-level noise from the road) otherwise, the park itself is nice and quiet. The shop is well stocked, as is Monty's bar! The showers and wash-up facilities are so clean and modern, one of the best we have experienced. The location is close to the main road, which takes you out to the nearby towns/villages. Approximately 15mins from the New Forest, so it's a great base to explore from. We would definitely stay again!
