 We stayed here for 2 nights and I must admit, that until the new shower / toilet block is up and running, I would not go back. The showers and toilets are portacabins. There are only 2 showers that were working in the womens and they are not proper shower cubicles. It is just a shower with a curtain across it, with nowhere private to get undressed or put your things.
The toilets seemed to be clean but were very small cubicles. There is also no shop on site either. I also have to agree with another reviewer on here about the price, £16 a night is very expensive especially when the facilities are extremely basic.
Now the good points were the pitches were flat and the owners were friendly. The location was good, very close to Southampton.

I cannot believe that the last reviewer 'can't fault' this campsite, or that the one before that considered the facilities 'perfectly acceptable'.
The facilities are diabolical.
It is true, as pointed out by other reviewers, that new facilities are under construction. But it is now over a year since this was first reported, and they are still far from finished.
But you are still expected to pay high prices - as if they were finished.
The site itself is actually good, and it's a good location. But the existing washing, toilet and washing up facilities are nowhere near good enough.
The Portakabin toilets are basic to say the least. The two washbasins were each the size and shape of a bicycle saddle and they were placed right next to each other, so only one could be used anyway.
The showers were again basic, with no privacy and very little space and a sign warned against using them on a 'High' setting because it would 'trip the electricity'.
Washing up facilities consisted of a single free standing sink, open to the elements, and with a single (cold) tap.
It was therefore necessary to fill up a washing up bowl (very slowly) from the aforementioned tiny basins.
Add to this the fact that the site is charging high rates (four of us stayed in an eight-man tent and paid £27 per night) and the overall conclusion is a poor site charging premium prices.
When (if) the new toilet block is finished, then this will be a site worth considering.
But, until you are sure that that is the case, I would avoid using this site unless you are in a caravan with full self-sufficient facilities.

We stayed at this site for a long weekend break from Friday until Wednesday and I have to be honest I cant fault it.
Having read the reviews we were a little concerned but particularly wanted to stay in this area as we were visiting family so took the risk, and were very happy we did so.
The site is run by a husband and wife team who couldn't have been more helpful if they tried and were on hand to help with any queries.
The area is great as it has local parks, pubs and southampton city centre is ten minutes away. If walking you do have to walk down and initial part of road but this didn't cause any problem.
The land is as flat as you could get and the pitches are a great size. We pitched a 6 man with plenty of space.
The showers were clean and very adequate as were the toilets. I never saw any signs of mould or uncleanliness. The owner seemed to be in there cleaning ample number of times a day.
The owners are massively improving the site by adding a large shower block, washing facilities and toilets - once this is done you wouldn't be able to give a high enough review for the site.
We will stay there plenty more time due to visiting family and look forward to the next time in August.

We stayed here with our kids for the weekend 5th June. A very well kempt, spacious site. The plots are a good size and allow a private space for the family to gather in. There are temporary showers / toilets which were clean and perfectly acceptable given the fact shower and Laundry amenities are in the process of being built. There is a good dog walking field.
We found the site to be quiet and within easy reach of Southampton. The coast is nearby and there a a lovely country park. We ate at the local pub on Grange Road which was less than a mile away. They had a good offer on meals ie two for the price of one! There was also another pub with a larger kids play area on Portsmouth Road. We enjoyed a visit to the Netley Abbey Ruins - the kids enjoyed climbing on the walls. We also did a day trip to Marwell Zoo which is near to Winchester - well worth a day trip.
Overall a good site. This was helped by the fact the owners are friendly and welcoming and go out of their way to make your stay a pleasant one. We look foward to returning in the summer : )

First I will list the good points.
If you have caravan or motorhome with its on washing and toilet / shower facilities then this is a great site with good hook up points with a light and water in one unit. The pitches in the main field are large, level and well spaced with good well lit fire points.
This site is well located as it is near to a very large tesco (5 Mins) and a M&S / Sainsburys (10Mins). 1 pub 10 minute walk. Ideal as a stopover before using the red funnel isle of wight ferry.
Now the BAD points.
If like us you do not have your own facilities the ones on site are an absolute disgrace. 2 urinals and 2 w/cs for the gents and 3 w/cs for the ladies both in the same portaloo building. The showers were in another shared portaloo type building 2 for the men and 3 for women. The showers could not be used on the high setting as it tripped the electric. The second of the 2 male showers was on cold and the whole block had damp everywhere with mildew on the ceilings and the curtains urgh!.
There is no dishwashing facilities just a washing up bowl outside the showers with a bucket to put the dirty water in. You had to use the sink in the shower to get the water to wash up with.
Also tents were in the same field as the showers which was full of holes so it made it fun getting about in the tent.I do not think that this is worth the £16 per night 3 night minimum charge.
When the actual toilet shower block is finished it would be worth the money until then I would recommend this site for caravans and motorhomes only.

This site gets an 'OK' from us. The toilet facilities, which were located in porta cabins were not too special, but I note that there is a new block under construction which should improve matters. They are trying very hard to be environmentally responsible, which is very laudable and should be supported by all who stay. Unfortunately, when I went to put some cardboard in the allotted (and very clearly marked) bin, somebody had thrown in an overstuffed bag of mixed waste. I tried to remove it to the correct bin but the bag was too flimsy too move. How annoying for the owners.
The owners seemed friendly and helpful and it was good to have electric and water all in place right by the van.
The site is level and well kept. The road which runs along side it is just a little noisy as, rather surprisingly, is the adjoining farm track.
There is a good dog walking area and all facilities - pubs, shops etc are located nearby, including a huge Tesco Extra.
Would we go back again? Well as we live very close by, probably not. But don't let that put you off.

Just spent a few weeks on this lovely open site. The owners are exceptionally friendly and do everything they can to make you welcome. Really big pitches on lovely flat grass field. Electric hook up / water and grey waste disposal on each pitch. Only portacabin toilets at the moment which were clean and adequate. Super large shower block well on the way to being completed for next year. Best if you have your own facilities at the moment but not essential. Loads to do see in the area, great rail service along the coast.
Despite the site being full with loads of tents at the weekend, it was always quiet and relaxing. Lots of space for children to play.
Would definitely recommend this site.

We chose this site because of the previous reviews and the fact that it was fairly close to home as we were only staying for 2 nights, and we were not disappointed.
Again the owners were very friendly and helpful, and as we were a group of 4 units we were put on 2 huge pitches where we could pitch opposite eachother rather than in a line, and we still had loads of room. I felt this was really thoughtful on Stella's part.
The site was lovely and clean and well laid out. There was a bit of road noise but this posed no problem.
With regard to the toilets, there were 3 ladies toilets and 2 mens with 2 urinals, both in portacabins whilst the building work is being carried out, which were spotlessly clean at all times. The site was fairly quiet so there was no problem but not sure how they would fair if the site was full. The owners have made a shower available at the back of their house with another at the front as an emergency, again not sure how this would work if the site was full.
Overall the site was really nice and we would definitely use again once the toilet & shower blocks have been completed. (the building work looks very impressive!)

My partner and I stayed here with a 3-man tent and 2 dogs. The site was about 1/3 full during our visit so not too crowded regarding toilet access etc. This is a nice farm-style site close to Southampton and near the river Hamble surrounded by trees and fields.
Booking was easy and Stella Matthews' (owner) communicates clearly, quickly and is very helpful and welcoming.
The pitches, especially for a tent, were huge and there was loads of space. Also, there's a dog walking area which was great for us. The site is fairly neat though at the entrance there's still a lot of building work going on and this is because the new toilet / shower block is only about 1/2 complete.
There's a perfectly acceptable, though compact, temporary toilet facility which was clean and though OK for calls of nature, it wasn't useful for washing anything more than your hands. There's a single shower in the Matthews' home at the site entrance, which you enter via a separate door, and while it was clean and absolutely fine for our needs, I probably wouldn't want to have to use it if the site was busy.
Overall, a nice, neat, green, compact, well proportioned site which will be excellent when the toilet / shower block is completed.

We have just had a week-end stay. At this site. They have a new toilet block with hand basins hot and cold water. The owners of this site are slowly upgrading this site to a high standard.And should be praised for what they trying to do.As this takes time,bearing in mind it is run by a husband and wife team.And it annoys me when you get a review that was submited by the robinsons. We used this site the same month and found no problems with toilet and shower that was supplied at the time. Use this site you will not be disappointed.

This is a lovely, lovely campsite the couple are so helpful and kind. We were greeted late evening and shown our pitch. Although the toilets are temporarily with 2 showers the cleanliness is wonderful. They have maintained the best standards in that department, which has surprised me. We nearly trod on a hedgehog in the night time in the dog walking area it is lovely. The pitches are very roomy (not crammed) flat and hedged all the way round.
I would personally like to thank the site's couple for understanding why we had to cut the stay shorter due to unforeseen circumstances you made it easier for us and even left the pitch open for one more night for our return, unfortunately two days later sadly my nan has passed away. Thank you for your kind words before we left and we will come back one day again through better circumstances.
We would recommend anyone to visit this site and be sure that as their facilities up grade be sure to book early as their customer service and warmth shall make this site a hot spot to camp!

Good price only £12 a night the ground is very good with water and electric to most pitches the owners were very nice
But that's where it ends the toilets were the worst I have ever seen and the shower was a porta cabin
The owners did say you could use their house but they wanted only women and kids in there but I did manage to sneak in
The owners did say that they have plans to build a shower and toilet block but this would not be till 2008
I would go back if I was staying over before catching a ferry or moving on somewhere else

Did not realise we had such a nice site so close to us. The site is very well maintained, flat level pitches. Hook-ups on all pitches. Although in the process of building toilet and shower block, the on site arrangements are very clean.
Nice pubs, farm-shop, Tescos are all very close by. Good large dog walking area. The owners of this site could not be more helpful.
I would recommend this site to any campers of all sizes.
