Just 3 miles away from the pleasant village of Bransgore, you can find one the UK’s best campsites in the New Forest National Park. The New Forest Club Campsite was originally part of a Second World War airfield and parts of the original runway still exist. There is also a memorial to the New Forest Airfields just to the north of the caravan park, making this a very attractive destination should you be interested in war history.
Set amidst beautiful rolling countryside, New Forest Club Campsite has an open aspect and is home to The Club's celebratory Centenary Gardens with lovely bird life including Song Thrushes and Bullfinches. There is also an excellent dog walk plus loads of fun play equipment and a safe play field for younger visitors. This Hampshire campsite is a great base from which to explore the charming local landscapes by either foot or bike, with cycle routes starting as nearby as 200 yards. Conveniently located for visits to the busy towns of Christchurch, Poole and Bournemouth, the site is also as well situated for a wealth of beaches and resorts along with trips to nearby Dorset, for the perfect summer holiday.

Not a good location for motorhomes out of season
New Forest Centenary Club Campsite
Nice friendly warden greeted us on arrival. Given a map showing the very few hardstanding pitches still available. All but 1 of those (which had been taken by people before us) were on the mustang area. Unfortunately these pictures are near the road and the cattlegrid so every morning we were disturbed very early from the traffic noise.
Fish and chip van 3 nights a week and the gin bar was popular. Vendors of fish and chip van miscalculated quantities required. Haddock sold out and the chicken breast was also sold out fairly soon during their visit, I opted for cod, which was quite small and came served with a lemon slice and a long auburn (orange/brown) hair, found halfway through eating my meal. So was not impressed
Site was tidy and toilet block nice and clean
There is a bus stop outside camp gates but buses only run through the season so no transport to get around as we did not take our bikes. There are bikes for hire but seemed expensive. Nice steady walk to nearest village offering a few shops and cafe for refreshments.
Many horses and cows roaming loose just passed cattlegrid and the non club site just up the road had shop plus hot food and drink available (closed Monday and Tuesday during September) with nice walks through the surrounding forest.
Things to do in the area were very limited with no transport so I would not recommend this site for motorhomers.
Bins by the entrance only is a problem. Others I spoke to were not impressed with it either and recycling was not a priority, everything in 1 bag and taken to skip on departure seemed the norm.
This is a nice site and in a nice location but is not on our list for a return visit
Great site but poor WiFi (again)
New Forest Centenary Club Campsite
Great location, facilities and wardens but WiFi is poor when the site gets at least half full - even when paid for so called Premium WiFi. We have found this at various sites and really need an explanation from the Club on this persisitent issue.
Great that E-bikes are available to hire at thsi site although they are too big for some people.
Overpriced
New Forest Centenary Club Campsite
We stayed for 2 weeks on a grass pitch. We arrived in the rain and had to pitch our awning on very long , very wet grass, which stayed wet for days after the rain had stopped. For the duration of our stay we did not see a single grass pitch being mowed, weeds being removed from the hard standing pitches or from around the toilet blocks. We did see the grass at the entrance being cut and the weeds being removed from around the reception.
All the pitches at the top end of Mustang, those closest to the road, are extremely noisy as they are close to a cattle grid and the road noise starts early morning.
All the best grass pitches are on Liberator (which had recently been mowed) but for some reason Liberator is closed, why when the site was full?
Having only one main rubbish/recycling collection area near the reception, is a very bad idea. I didn't mind taking my rubbish and recycling there, but what about those who can't walk very well. I also didn't see people recycling as much. People carried one rubbish bag with everything in it and put it all in the same bin. It would be interesting to see if the club has monitored recycling rates before and after this "box ticking" green policy was introduced.
The site is in a reasonable location for exploring the area, countryside and coast, however walking directly from the site means walking for 1/2 mile or so on a busy'ish road.
We had a good holiday and love the area (we've stayed at Black Knoll before) but it's doubtful we will return to New Century.
Our favourite site
New Forest Centenary Club Campsite
Have been to this site many times now and alway well maintained and in in a great location for the New Forest and local Seaside.
Slightly disappointed that only one hand dryer working in Ladies and none working in Gents for the 4 nights we were there. Be aware that recycling is now centralised near entrance so more exercise required now!
Had planned to take advantage of App-bikes but be aware that you need to be at least 5ft 3inches to be able to reach ground (with electric bikes) so abandoned that.
Not a great stay
New Forest Centenary Club Campsite
Ist time at this site lovely location but the site a disappointment. This site is meant to be open to the end of October, but be aware they shut off the whole of the Liberator section early , which are about one third of the grass pitches. Told when I got there with my sister that we would be lucky if we wanted a pitch together, which of course we would of preferred, but the attitude of the staff was basically, tough!. We were told we may be able to get two together but as there were people already riding around for pitches it was doubtful, as they were busy (so why shut a third of the site down!). Finally after driving around 3 times and going back to reception to ask for help as we could not see any grass pitches, had 2 pointed out to us on the map in close proximity with each other. the pitch I booked was grass with awning, I found myself squeezed in between two hard standing pitches with loads of room for car, caravan and awning. But I could not put my awning out as the pitch was not big enough, allowing for fire break. Never saw the staff walk the site and keep a check for the 2 nights we stayed. Loved the site, not the attitude, will book again, but I am aware now that I will get no help from staff I will also book a hard stand as much more room, and no chance of making out the grass pitch in between is grass with awning, instead of just a standard grass pitch.
