 We booked to stay for 4 nights. On arrival we were told by the owner there was her daughters wedding with a disco on the Friday night! It would've been courteous to advise us of this before arrival as we were worried our stay was going to be disturbed. The wedding did not disturb us and they politely ended the disco at midnight. What disturbed us was the campers in the field. They were playing loud music before the wedding even got going and after not being able to sit outside and enjoy the weather with the music I went over and politely asked them to turn it down. (Much to their disapproval) They were a cluster of campers and I'm not sure if all were wedding guests but they had ferrets, cats and a very boisterous out of control dog. Of which sadly the owner hit when it got over excited. So that part of our stay was rather unpleasant.
The son was very pleasant and helpful on arrival. We didn't see anyone the rest of the time. We had a power cut on the 2nd night so turned everything to gas as it happened as we were going to bed. I didn't get an acknowledgement when I emailed about this. It might have been nice customer service to advise us the reason or how long it was out as we incurred gas costs of our own to run the fridge because of this and at the cost per night to stay I felt this inconvenient.
The field had a lot of sheep poo in it but freshly cut grass. There aren't many electrical hook ups considering the size of the field and they run across the middle of the field so if you have a long electrical lead you can park away from the plugs and everyone else. There are electrical hook ups in the pub car park so hardstanding available. There is a drinking water tap and a waste area. That's it. Based on the basic facilities I would definitely say the site is overpriced. We paid £20 a night for a weekday and £25 a night for the weekend! They offer 10% discount in the pub but to be fair under the circumstances of a large wedding and Covid and social distancing we did not visit the pub.
The location is ideal for Forest Walks and there are the pubs at Brook The Green Dragon and The Bell and also the very lovely Royal Oak at Fritham which I would recommend. If approaching from Brook be aware there is a Ford so slow down for it as it has quite a dip. You can also approach from the A31 Eastbound.
If asked if I would stay again, I would have to say because of the cost I would look for other sites first :(

Good location on the edge of the Forest so it was easy to get to Southampton which was the reason for our visit.
Friendly welcome from the owners and staff. Apart from the electric hookup the site is quite primitive with toilets only available in the pub.
Expensive for a site with such limitations.

Beautiful location with plenty of easy walks for all ages. Extremely friendly staff. Had delicious Sunday lunch in pub for husband's birthday.
Our daughter requested a candle on her Dad's desert which was willingly given. The staff then also gave him a birthday card.
Current owners have been there only a year and are re-activating the campsite, but there is a long way to go.
My husband and I were self-sufficient in a motorhome, but having been told our daughter and son-in-law could join us in a tent, we were not told there were no facilities for tents; no loo - except for the one in pub - and no shower.
We had an electric hook-up for the motorhome, but the water tap in the field was broken. Ok there was another outside tap at the front of the pub but we had to run a hose from that to the manhole cover in order to flush out the chemical loo.
We were a little aggrieved that the pub still charged £20 per pitch, plus £5 a night for the EHU. It hardly has sufficient facilities to call itself a CL at the moment.
The 10% discount off everything in the pub did not quite compensate! However they were all lovely, helpful people and we wish them well and hope they develop the campsite to good basic standards. If so we will return.

We're delighted to confirm this location has reopened as an official campsite again - it accepts caravans and motorhomes but no tents now, and it is open all year. At the time of writing they charge £20pn, and payment gives 10% off at bar

Unfortunately this site is now closed. There are no camping facilities as of this year, the field has now been given over to livestock.

Went here in a tent last year.
We followed the tourist signs and found the pub and what we thought was a campsite.
It was ok, but a bit of a problem with no showers and no loos for the ladies early in the morning. Bit pricey as well. We stayed for two nights and decided to move on and find somewhere to have a wash!
Nice part of the forest though and it is handy being next to the pub.
Try and put in some showers - Please

This is one site we like, it is basic but the walks are really good.
When we arrived this time,we were told that we can't park next to our tent, ok, thats new,but never mind! We set the tent up etc, got it all as we like it, then set off for the 'new toilet block' after a round trip of the pub, we could NOT find it, so my other half went in the pub to ask where they were.T he manager said we don't have any ! Yes, you have a new toilet Block. NO we dont have any toilets, only those in the Pub,and we close at about midnight,and open about 10am. Last year you left the side toilet door open for us campers, NO cant do that someone may break in the pub, so Why then this year is there no new toilets or access to the old ones ?
We did make a telephone booking,why then were we not told about this? dont no, but you can't use the toilets out of hours.
They did tell us that they were fully booked for the bank holiday.No more than 8 tents at any one time I saw.Last year all 3 fields were full, really full to. Heaving !
This was a lovely part of the New Forest to camp in,but like so many other camp sites that have been taken over,they are expensive

We were here August Bank Holiday, the field we were in was full! so were the other 2 !
The toilet block (Male),was the toilets for the pub,! 1 washhand basin,1 toilet and 2 urinals Que's 6 to 10 long for hours,even 6 in the morning you were not alone. There was a site loo but by 10am the smell was to bad !For the girls much the same 2 toilets and a washand basin ! again Que's and Que's. There was NO shower block male or female.
The food in the pub was very good, but again Que's and a long wait to eat.
But the walks in the forest were great,we did have a good time,More toilets and Showers are needed ASAP.

The facilities at the site are basic with a water point, a chemical toilet disposal point and some bins for rubbish.
There is one toilet bowl in the gents toilets and one in the ladies. During the day campers are able to use the pub toilets which were clean and well stocked however these are not available when the pub is shut.
Great meals are available in the pub for around £8, the pub is friendly and although soft drinks are a little expensive the beer/larger prices are normal for the area.
This camp site is also cheaper than most in the area, and although basic with no shower it is good value. I will use again

OK so this was my first time here at this campsite and first impressions weren't too good unfortunately. I went with a group of friends and my boyfriend and although the place wasn't that brilliant we had our laughs. We first got into the pub and had to pay for our pitches the pub at the beginning was swarming with people. After once paying we went to the 3rd pitch. (3 big pitches overall) The pitch was just one big square of grass.
Pub- The pub had entertainment and Karaoke etc. Didn't get around to trying their food as we went to another restaurant close by. The cost for drinks was average not too bad and the people with in the pub were friendly.
The campsite was fairly quiet at night time although you did have the odd few people dancing to music outside there cars about midnight!
The first night there we had a disposable barbecue for this we had to get a box from the pub so that it didn't burn the ground, only thing is they had run out and told us to get some bricks instead from the old building opposite the pub.
Now Ive left the worst thing to last, the campsite would be really nice if only it had a shower and if only the toilets were not so disgusting!
TOILETs- Smelt/dirt everywhere/small/not very many.
