Description
Pitches: 600
This New Forest campsite occupies part of what used to be Holmsley Airfield in WWII, so it`s a beautiful and unique forest base for camping holidays and outdoor activities. Surrounded by ancient trees on all sides, and sitting next to a large heathland, you can spend your time relaxing and enjoying 360 degree views of grazing ponies and wildlife.
Not far from the coastline, this is a great base for exploring the nearby sandy beaches of Christchurch and Bournemouth as well as the tracks that weave through the ancient woodland of the New Forest.
Holmsley offers pitches with electric hook-ups in addition to non-electric hardstanding and grass pitches. The on-site shop has recently been refurbished, and features a fresh look and a selection of delicious local produce from the New Forest. Families will also love the brand-new play area, designed to keep little ones entertained. A well-stocked shop and a handy takeaway make it easy to enjoy a relaxed stay in this scenic and historic setting.
All of our sites are located within the beautiful New Forest and offer a relaxed, natural camping experience without allocated pitches - guests are free to choose where they set up, giving you the flexibility to find the perfect spot. Please note, however, that at Holmsley, electric pitches are allocated upon arrival.

Not far from the coastline, this is a great base for exploring the nearby sandy beaches of Christchurch and Bournemouth as well as the tracks that weave through the ancient woodland of the New Forest.
