We have recently stayed at this site for the third time this year, which is a clear indication of how much we like it! The grounds and facilities are very well maintained by an excellent team of friendly wardens and it is very well situated to enjoy the diverse environments of the New Forest, local coastal walks and beaches, as well as pleasant nearby towns such as Christchurch, with Bournemouth not far away. There are also added bonuses such as the wildlife area, good play area for children, freshly baked croissants and baguettes on weekends, homemade cakes and a good range of other food and supplies in the site office. We cannot understand those who have been disappointed by the site. We will most certainly return again before too long!
Not like it used to be
After returning for the 3rd time to this site,couldn't belive that the site wasn't kept how it used to be.weeds and long grass ever where.i told our friends how well kept it was so disappointed when we got there.no problem with staff but perhaps you should look how southlands keep their site.
DISSAPOINTED
we wanted a few days away with our 2 dogs so we thought lets go back to Black Knowl but it was full, never mind this one is still in the new forest..by name only..its 3/4 mile walk on a very fast busy road with no pavement to get to the dog walks so i was not impressed.
as for the site i cannot find fault with it other than the location
sorry to say i will not be back
Fantastic site
Stayed at this site a couple of times. Immaculately kept, good pitch size, bathroom facilities spotless, fantastic children's play area. Good dog walking facilites. Great fish & chip van!
Fabulous break
Just returned from a 4 night break, June 2015. Beautifully kept site. Really clean. Very helpful and friendly staff. Will definitely return to this one if we get the chance.

Peaceful Break
Stayed at New Forest Centenary Site for 10 days from 20th April. Overall was impressed with the level of cleanliness, facilities (decent toilet block, excellent dog walks and very good children's play area (although no children on this trip)), decent sized/well maintained pitches (our chosen pitch was perfectly level - possibly lucky but others looked pretty much the same) and friendly/helpful wardens. Being located on the Hampshire/Dorset border provided an excellent base for exploring the New Forest/Southampton as well as venturing into Dorset (Bournemouth, Poole and Wimbourne visited on this trip). One of our favourites was the sea views provided from the cliffs at Milford-On-Sea which was about 15 minute drive from site. As our stay was during school time we did not experience any issues with children but can see problems highlighted in some other reviews during school holiday periods as it is a very family friendly site. The only negative was the mobile fish & chip van which visited on Wednesdays as the quality of the "cod" (looked like deep fried frozen shop fish) was very poor and not value for money. We would definitely consider revisiting this site in the future but not during school holiday periods.
Kids
Having just returned home after 7 nights of kids running through my pitch kids riding bikes and scooters round the toilet blocks and around the site until gone 10 at night even kids playing ball and riding bikes In the dog field needless to say no one picked them up on any the above.wonderful location wonderful facilities but if your after peace and quiet try somewhere else.

Great site for discovering the New Forest
Our second caravan club site and in all honesty we cant fault it. Excellent facilities, clean and helpful staff. An ideal location for discovering the New Forest. Would stay here again.
Beautiful Site.
This has been our 3rd cc site that we have been on. We was a bit put off by the number of pitches (275) there were before we booked but we booked a week anyway and so glad that we did. The site was out of this world and we couldn't fault it one bit. The shower block was lovely and the showers were piping hot and powerful. The site was quite busy but you still had plenty of space and you could hear the birds singing. Not too far to the coast and attractions of the area. We will be back in the not so distance future although not during the school holidays. Definitely recommend this site.
From Wales to Hampshire on a whim
We went to a cl site in Wales and must have picked the worst week ever for weather. After 3 days of gales, rain and a damaged awning my husband said "I've had enough" so we booked up for this site on a spur of the moment, then packed up and left. Best move ever. Love it here, the weather has been lovely too. Although they got the weather was right for today, it dawned dull and cooler than yesterday. So I took the dogs (all 3of them) to the dog walk, which is secure and spacious. Then back to the van for a fry up.
I can without a doubt tell you that this is an absolutely fabulous site, not just for couples but also for families. There are so many places to visit lots of walks and bike rides.
We have in fact been here when it first opened and the planting was very immature. The site is now lovely, the trees and shrubs have grown, the pitches spacious the staff really great.
Go on. Give it a go
