 It’s only been a couple of months since my last review of our visit in June but we were back again in September so I’ll log another review!
Nothing has really changed over the last few months apart from the fact that the really dry weather has led to the grass being a bit parched however the rain that came at last towards the end of our stay will soon sort that out.
The wardens are still friendly, the site is still excellently located, there is still lots to do in the area and we just love it.
One place that we visited this year that we haven’t visited in the past was Exbury Gardens. We really enjoyed the walks through the gardens down to the river and it’s definitely somewhere that will return again when we next visit The New Forest.
We also discovered the Setley Ridge vineyard which serve the most delicious cakes in their tea room! I am really fussy about my cakes being a keen amateur baker myself, but these ones are some of the best that we have ever tasted.
So all in all, another great time spent in The New Forest, one of our favourite locations.

Fantastic site on the edge of the forest with miles of walking available amongst the ponies, cows, donkeys who also frequent the town on a regular basis. - certainly an experience not had elsewhere !
Site facilities were of a good standard with welcoming wardens. Will be back.

Another year, another visit to Black Knowl, which is still my favourite site on the Caravan Club network.
Facilities are as good as ever, however the ridiculously early cleaning time for the ladies toilets is still in place so you have to get up and get going early if you want to stay on this site!
The location of the site is ideal for us, with lots of walks through the forest in all directions. It’s also close enough to places by car like Lymington, where there are good supermarkets and shops to visit.
We usually go in the autumn, so it was really interesting to visit at the start of the summer this year, there are newborn foals everywhere, which was delightful to see.
The only negative aspect of the site is the price, it has been creeping up gradually over the last few years and it’s now ridiculously expensive.

Right in the forest. Cycle out along trails all over, or along Rhinefield and Bolderwood Otnamental Drives through arboretums of stunning redwoods. Ride to Beauliei offroad good - get New Forest map to numbered posts on trails to help navigate.
Really love the site, full but peaceful site, really well kept, but lots of character, and straight into the forest for walks and cycles, or a pub meal.
Huntsman pub in Brokenhurst about 2. 2 miles away is great for quality food and lovely in good weather for outddor dining, looks good inside too.

My review below from 2019 still stands but I thought I would add a quick Covid19 update.
The site is still as good as ever and the wardens are working hard to keep everyone safe. There is a band system in pace that allows 6 people at a time into the toilet block where 3 toilets and 3 showers are open. These seem to be well cleaned and everyone was doing a good job with social distancing while we were there. I complained in my review last year about the ladies closing at 10. 15am for cleaning, it’s even worse this year as they are closing at 10am which is ridiculously early but we love the location of this site so are happy to put up with this!
The local towns and villages seemed to be as busy, if not busier than they have been at this time in previous years but generally people are social distancing and wearing face coverings etc.
Most of the local cafes have significantly reduced capacity and a few have even closed since last year as they are so small they could probably only have 1 or 2 tables with social distancing and probably didn’t think it was worth opening
But we had a really enjoyable stay as usual with lots of walking and cycling opportunities in the Forest, direct from the site.

Access to this site is not difficult at all, just ensure you follow club directions on your approach through Brockenhurst.
Wardens at time of visit very friendly and helpful. Site is well laid out, and despite what others say felt spacious. The hardstanding pitches were generous in size, well maintained and for the most part level. The facilities block is new, was always spotlessly clean and there was always plentiful hot water.
The site offers walking direct into the New Forest, and varied walks are available.
We got a strong signal for TV through our Status and good reception on EE for web browsing.
Tesco express in Brockenhurst for shopping, but all the other suspects available a bit further afield.

Black Knowl is probably our favourite site on the Caravan Club network. The site is right in the middle of the forest and you can walk straight from the site into the forest.
About half an hours walk takes you into the village of Brockenhurst and there are numerous walks and cycle routes in the surrounding area. There are horses and cattle roaming freely on the common just outside the site which is lovely to see.
The site itself has both grass and hardstanding pitches and there is a good number of fully serviced pitches. The shower block is excellent, with plenty of toilets and showers however the ladies block is closed for cleaning at 10:15am which is far too early in my opinion.
We love the relaxed feel of the site and there is so much to do in the surrounding area that I doubt we will ever get bored with it!

Situated in an open area of the New Forest with numerous walks leading directly from the site. Brockenhurst village within walking distance. Lyndhurst and Lymington a short drive away.
A very well maintained site with lovely floral displays around the arrival area together with a comprehensive information kiosk.
The toilet block and general facilities were always immaculate and the wardens were friendly and very helpful. A most enjoyable stay.

Fantastic site which is well equipped. We stayed on a serviced pitch which meant having our own water and waste point. The site was upgraded the previous year do there is now a new toilet block which has family wash rooms; ideal for people with youngsters. From here you can walk into the forest and see different animals (deer especially). You can also ride your bike on the paths through the forest. Brockenhurst can be walked to so no need to drive. Well worth a visit.

After being cancelled by the CMC here in September 2017 we decided to try again, this time booking a fully serviced hardstanding pitch.
The weather could not have been better - summer 2018 = heatwave!
Thankfully the approach road to the site has been sorted and most of the potholes have been filled.
New reception area with bigger shop which means the information room has been moved to a new impressive round 'hut'. Barriered in and out of the site now. Fantastic new toilet block - key code required.
The new fully serviced hardstandings are right in the middle of the site (near to the toilet block) and do feel a bit 'exposed' but are large. Some of them are not flat by any means and we had to use our chocks but not a problem.
We love the fact that you are literally right in the middle of the forest at Black Knowl. We walked and biked from the site on all 3 days of our stay.
It's not a cheap site and we paid over £30 per night for our fully serviced pitch and it wasn't even high season. Would still highly recommend this site.
