Not a site to be able to walk anywhere from
Danewood
When we arrived, we were given directions where to park from another camper. We parked as we were told between the bricks. We assumed the person welcoming us and directing us was either a regular camper or a deputy. No he had only arrived the day before and it was his first time staying there!
The road is really busy, we thought we would walk along the road to try to find a footpath to walk the dog, after a few minutes we turned around, there is no pavement and the traffic was tearing passed, some without moving out more than a few inches. On returning to the campsite I knocked on the door of the bungalow to ask where we can walk our dog safely. After listening to the site rules for 15 minutes I was given directions to where we could walk our dog. The campsite is advertised as a woodland dog run, I must say the area is far bigger than most dog walking areas on other campsites, but it certainly isn't woodland, it's their horse paddocks with a few trees in.
We have a large motorhome, so once we set up we prefer to walk or use local transport. The nearest bus stop is at Hordle 1.5 miles, we weren't prepared to risk our lives walking along the busy road, the traffic noise goes on all night and at weekends. It made it very difficult to sleep. We only ventured out for short walks after 7pm, then the motorists seemed to give us a bit more space to walk along a very dangerous road.
The campsite is located very good for The Plough public house and restaurant, it's straight over the road with good pub food and service. It's probably a nice site for people with cars that can drive to places, who are used to heavy traffic at night time, for sleeping. It's located about 2.5 miles from the New Forest, okay if the road was quieter, but too dangerous for us to visit again, we felt trapped on site.
Lovely site

Lovely site and well kept, no previous marks from other people as Terry moves plots around to preserve grass. Lovely dog walk with stream and horses. Road is a little noisy but you get used to it. Will be a regular visitor.

OK but !!
Danewood
We arrived after a 6 hour journey to be met (not welcomed) by the site owner who began the start of his 30 minute lecture. Not what you need after a long journey. We have been caravanning for over 30 years and can manoeuvre our van perfectly well but we were given a lecture as to how to reverse onto our pitch which was marked by the owner placing 2 bricks behind for us to park between after which we were shown the showers/toilets and given another lecture on how to use them. These were supposed to be exclusive use but builder from adjacent builders yard was using toilet! Road noise was constant day and night. We did have a nice meal in the pub opposite which was very good. Overall I would say OK for an overnight stop but we won't be returning as it felt we weren't wanted just our cash. I did check at time of booking and was told £17.00 a night but charged £20.00 a night on arrival.
Noisey road
Danewood
Constant traffic noise on the road beside this site. Owner greets you, then gives us his rules and shows us around. Very particular about positioning your caravan, making us go back and forwards 8 times, moving an inch each time.
Cannot keep your car beside your van where it is underneath trees. We had a breathable groundsheet, but he asked if we would move things inside of our awning.
Site is very well kept but ...
Do not take any notice of £17 per night site fee as we were told the book is out of date and it is now £20 per night all the time.
Will not be returning.
Lovely long weekend break

This is a lovely site, very well kept and maintained. Terry was very welcoming and showed us round the site, showing us the facilities which are two separate shower cubicles complete with a toilet and wash basin and one separate toilet. There is a busy main road but this did not bother us or give us any concern and is quiet at night. The Plough Inn, almost directly opposite, is very handy. They do breakfasts on certain days of the week although we cannot comment as we never went. We did, however, have a meal on one evening, it was your fairly average pub food, but the service was friendly with a nice garden to sit out in. We have a motorhome and used electric bikes to get about on, Milford on Sea was within easy cycling distance with a lovely shingle beach,the beautiful coastal town of Lymington (ferries over to the Isle of Wight), Hurst Castle, Bucklers Hard and the Sam Miller Motorcycle Museum to name but a few that were within easy cycling distance. A brilliant farm shop also just down the road, turn left out of the camp site. There is a New Forest open top double decker bus, which does a circular tour of the main New Forest villages that can accommodate bikes free of charge if you want to discover more of the area. Also close by was the train station with trains to Bournemouth and Poole. All in all a lovely site, in a brilliant location, will definitely be returning, hopefully in the not too distant future.
