We have just returned from a few days at Black Knowl, fantastic location, right in the heart of the forest, and only a 35 minute traffic free walk to Brockenhurst. The wardens were friendly and helpful, and although it was too early for the fish and chip van to visit the site, they recommended the Fish and Chip shop in Brockenhurst, which we tried and were very good. We used our Days Out voucher to visit Bucklers Hard, very interesting museum and lovely riverside walk to Beaulieu. The shower facilities are a bit different, but kept very clean and were lovely and warm. No playground on site for children, but plenty of cycling and forest to play in. We will revisit this site as soon as we can, hopefully later this year.
