Further to the other reviews I would concur that the entrance to this site is tight, although it was more the fact that it is straight upon you as you turn in from the road providing little opportunity to plan your approach that caused me a problem when I visited and left me grateful for the mover I have fitted on my 7.2m (circa 24ft) van.
The other reviews paint the owner as a little overbearing, as a 36 year old 'whipper snapper' I think he is just old, as I suspect from their use of feet are they, and likes things done his way. If you also like to do things your way, then clearly that maybe a problem. Personally I was happy for the owner to tell me where he wanted us and help me level the van with some wooden blocks. I was also very grateful when I found that my electricity cable for the hookup was not working that he was willing to take the time to help and ultimately able to provide me with a spare from his garage. I also found when I talked to him that he was knowledgeable about the local area and able to provide suggestions for trips with the kids.
There is a toilet and shower block on site, which for me is a bonus; at 6'2 and 16st, showering in the caravan is not a great experience. As for emptying the chemical loo down a manhole cover that seems to be an approach taken by many CL sites and I have certainly encountered worse arrangements on a CL site. Also, given there are two toilets within a minuets walk of anywhere on the site, you should not have to be emptying the chemical loo too often.
Yes the site is next to a busyish (for the New Forest) road and there is some road noise, but I did not find this to be too much of a problem. I was able to park my car right next to my caravan when I stayed, but most cars were parked at the end of the site next to the road; perhaps a slightly quirky requirement, but the 25m / 30m walk this entails is hardly a massive inconvenience.
The site was clean and well maintained and if the views were not inspiring because of the hedges (helping cut out some of the road noise), well just outside is the whole of the New Forest :-)
All in all I would agree with ganda162's conclusion "not one of the best, but I suppose not one of the worst", I should note for completeness that I am at the disadvantage of not having stayed at other CL's in the New Forest.
