Lovely location but some major problems
The location in the New Forest is lovely. Although please note there are no views of the forest from the site due to it needing to be surrounded by large hedges, and it is a very long walk up a road with no pavements to get into the forest by foot so you need a car, or to be willing to take a motorhome off site, in order to access the forest.
The facilities were very clean. The pizza takeaway van is to be recommended.
Unfortunately we had a few unhappy experiences during our stay.
The wardens were very unwilling to help (to the point of being abrupt and dismissive) when we requested our friend with mobility issues needed to be dropped off by car to our pitch when he visited us.
They were also very unhelpful to the point of being obstructive when we enquired about the possibility of a slightly later check out time on the day we were leaving - even though the site was extremely quiet and there were very few arrivals due in. They said it was not their policy to offer this, even though it would obviously have been no problem at all. I know it is not to be assumed that a site will be able to offer a later check out time, but on this occasion it was dismissed in a very 'jobs worth' way with no willingness to be at all flexible or accommodating.
It is a very expensive site to stay on (compared to other CMC sites), so we do not plan to visit again. We will find one of the other sites in the New Forest next time.
