Lepe Meadows Campsite Reviews
Lepe Meadows Campsite, a great spot for families, is just a mile away from the beach in the beautiful New Forest. Pitch up your tent or choose to stay in a pre-erected bell tent with camping equipment to save the hassle. Enjoy lazy days at the beach, crabbing for the kids or great sea fishing for the enthusiasts. The perfect holiday for families and kids who enjoy the great outdoors. Don't forget to bring marshmallows, as campfires are welcome!

Friendly welcoming staff. Plenty of clean toilets and showers, never had to queue. We enjoyed hiring a fire pit and toasting marshmallows and gathering around it in the evening. Campsite was set in a beautiful location close to the beach, where we enjoyed a day of paddle boarding. We went for a day at Paultons park which was about a 25 min drive and was a lot of fun for the kids. Would recommend. Thanks for making our family break enjoyable and stress free! 😃
Great family escape

I took my 2 kids (9 and 11) for a long weekend. Great place, great service. We all said in the car home that we would recommend to friends and family.

The bell tent was amazing, spacious and clean, and the camp beds are big and very comfortable. There were a few bits missing when we checked in which we had to chase up, we had no stove, cutlery or a picnic bench, but the staff quickly rectified this for us. The facilities aren't up to the same standard. The toilets and showers are trailer units and not plumbed in, so as a consequence the water can be patchy and sometimes doesn't work - we were left with a mouthful of toothpaste and no water more than once. There's also no lights in the toilet cubicles - there is by the sinks, but once you go in a cubicle and shut the door it's totally dark. The showers however, were hot and very nice. There are signs everywhere saying the water isn't drinking water - but there isn't a facility for drinking water which isn't great when you have water bottles to fill. Overall it's a nice site for a short stay, but the facilities could do with some investment if they want to offer a full glamping experience
Lovely stay

Lovely campsite and we really enjoyed using it as a base for local trips, booked paddleboarding at Lepe Beach nearby which was great, visited Avon beach and more. Be aware this campsite is more basic but you are paying less, so you will get what you pay for. In our case this was fine - you learn when hot water is on, and when all water gets switched off. You can eat pizza or breakfast at reception on certain days. The team are super friendly and helpful too. Pub nearby bit of a walk but a nice outside area, no food on the day we went but we did go late in the day. We met a lovely elderly cat there crossing the pub road who gave us lots of purrs, must be known to everyone based on the sweet tags it had. Give it a scritch under the chin if you see it.

Lovely genre campsite with basic bell tents and clear facilities. Friendly staff and little shop. 10 mins from beach and pub. Gentle hum of local power station too! Would visit again.

We really enjoyed our stay at this campsite, one thing I love about camping is having your own space, and this definitely had space. Gorgeous tree lined field. Fires and BBQs were welcomed. Toilet blocks and showers were clean and hot. Thank you for having us!

We chose this site as the locale suited what we were looking for. It was easy to get to and well signposted. The toilets were similar to a festival and were not enough for the amount of people on the site. This was made clear when there was consistently at least one out of action. There were only 4 sinks for washing and brushing your teeth. The showers were good but, they are only open between 7-10 and 4-8 which we found inconvenient and is not stated anywhere.
Gorgeous location with amazing, lovely staff

Gorgeous location with amazing, lovely staff - loved it. Only downside was that no-one seemed to be freshening the loos overnight so after 3 days the ladies' really stank?? Maybe there was a problem with contract cleaners, really don't know, but this is the only thing that could've been better. My son said the pizza the staff made was the best he'd ever tasted.
The love of Lepe

We have been to Lepe Meadow 3 times in the last couple of years and always have the best time. Location is great, away from the bustle of the New Forest and only a short drive if you want to venture in. There's a great stoney beach just a short walk away, my two boys have spent hours crabbing and fishing in the pools of water. The site itself is basic, with facilities to wash up, showers and toilets. At the entrance the owners are on site and run a small shop out of reception (ice pops were popular in the summer). It is quiet, perfect for me to sit back and relax while my boys could explore and play safely. I have recommended this campsite to many people and we will be going back next year.
Perfect 1st holiday

I originally booked a pitch which was further away from the coast, however I asked if we could move closer to the beach and this was not a problem. The staff were very friendly. We pitched our tent next to a field full of sunflowers and made it our home. The toilets were mostly clean and the beach was close enough to walk to and we enjoyed the park next to it. This place was lovely. I have recommended this place to family and friends.... but mainly, my girls loved it!
Lovely weekend

Park was well situated and run by very helpful people. Loved the fact we could hire a fire pit, had loads of fun toasting marshmallows. Hope to go back next year.

We had all the weathers on our camping trip with souvenirs of sunburn and soggy shoes. The site was great and we would go again. Our best day was a walk along the bridal path through the pea fields to Lepe beach where we also found a great park. I think a play park is all I’d add to this site.
Marvellous campsite

Amazing campsite and very good value for money! Could have done with a play park for the children but the beach isn't that far away to visit. Plenty of space.
