Great stay. Very nice reception from both staff and other campers and great location. We walked up to Hamble Village for food and drink at The Kings and Queens (lovely food!) and finished off at the Mercury Marina Bar. My only gripe was the shower tray was not clean at all and didn't drain well. The cubicle was later locked so I reckon staff were aware. But, this didn't detract from a great place that we would most definitely return to.

We're so pleased you had a great stay! Apologies about the shower: we hope that the other the shower units were of a high standard for you and that you weren't inconvenienced by having one closed for maintenance. We look forward to welcoming you to the site another time.

Lovely, clean and quiet camping site. Very peaceful. Hooked up our campervan to the electric on a grass pitch with no issues. Clean and warm showers, inside washing up area. Would definitely recommend if you're looking for a peaceful place to relax.

A lovely little site next to the Marina, good sized grass pitches. Amazing views of the Marina and lots to do in the local area. Only slight down point where the showers were not adjustable and to hot most of the time. All in all, I will be returning.

Lovely stay, love the food at the nearby rigger gaff, staff very friendly. Bit disappointed the toilets were not cleaned throughout our stay and not everyone respected that other people used them as well.
Site's response
Thanks for your kind comments John. Apologies that you felt the toilets were not as clean as they should be. They should have been cleaned at least once during your stay so we appreciate the feedback and will investigate. We hope to welcome you to the site again.

The site was lovely and unspoilt. No traffic noise, just birds singing. Very clean loos and big showers with plenty of dry space to get changed. All amenities you need are there - washing up, laundry, ironing - though I didn't use them, it's nice they are provided for those that might. A 2 minute stroll from site is the restaurant/bar with beautiful views over the marina. Food is so good and definitely recommend the cocktails! The manager at Mercury Yacht campsite was so welcoming and offered us all sorts of advice on good places to explore locally, one of which was Hamble which has the best pasties ever! We will definitely return for a longer stay in the warmer weather.

A very pleasant site, though not much on the way of facilities in the immediate area, other than the quite pricey restaurant next door. We would be happy to use the site again.

Great couple of nights at this campsite in one of the Bell tents, which was fully equipped with everything we needed and a really comfortable stay! Kids loved the campsite and enjoyed a day out in Hamble. Facilities were great and nice and clean with hot water. Service was good and the team were very friendly and helpful. Overall we had a lovely few nights.

A great location and a friendly team made our stay enjoyable. We went to the Gaff Rigger to eat a couple of times and also just for a drink, the food was good and the team both friendly and attentive. The main issue with the site was the lack of facilities (toilets and showers). Whilst the touring site wasn't full during our stay, there weren't enough facilities available to cope with the numbers of people. They were tired but generally clean.

Thanks for your feedback Jenny. We're glad you enjoyed your stay and we've noted your comments about the facilities.

Perfect for our one night stopover before getting the ferry from Portsmouth. Great little site in immaculate condition hosted by friendly site manager (sorry, didn't get his name). Lovely flat pitches and good facilities - showers, loos and wash up areas all in great condition and super clean. Lovely bar and restaurant nearby. So peaceful and quiet overnight. Would definitely recommend and come again.

Stunning site, very clean, very accommodating and polite member of staff upon arrival. A rare thing these days to be made feel welcome! This place is spot on for everyone, adults and kids. Went dead quiet after 9.30pm which was to our liking. There's a restaurant with bar nearby but we didn't try it as it was too expensive for us.

Everything lovely. Great showers and loos extremely clean. Lovely staff. Only issue was the only option to freeze ice packs was in the office, which wasn't always open.
Site's response
How lovely to receive your comments, Layla. Apologies that you weren't always able to access the freezer when you needed to. You can always call the number on the site office door when it's unoccupied and someone will come and help you.

We visited to spend the days with a family member living 30-minutes away so the location suited us perfectly. The staff clearly pay attention to which pitch to put us on, which was appreciated and as a couple it was away from those with children. The individual toilets are a bonus, as are the showers, even if they are of the push button type. Being so close to the Gaff Rigger was great. Originally we only considered this site because it was close to family, however we liked the site and staff so much we have said we would might come again and explore the region better. We would definitely recommend this site to others.
