Single Axle Caravan - Serviced Hardstanding PitchesOct 2023

Had a peaceful 4 day stay on a fully serviced pitch, unfortunately, we were there the same 4 nights as Storm Babet. We were on pitch no 10 and the water seemed to stream down to our pitch, but it soon drained away. The Thai restaurant was a nice treat, we would definitely stay there again when the weather is better.

VW-Type Campervan - Serviced Hardstanding PitchesOct 2023

I loved how private all the pitches were. The only thing I can think of to be picky about is perhaps the light could stay on a tad longer when washing up - I would've looked peculiar waggling my leg behind me to get the light back on every couple of minutes whilst washing up in the dark! But that's about it, and it's hardly a trial. We will definitely rebook as it's so handy for New Forest walks there.

Thanks for your lovely review Jen, and thanks for highlighting the lighting issue, I'll get it checked. Hope to see you again soon.

Perfect site for some r&r, spotlessly clean and good size pitches. There was a lovely pub within walking distance that also accepts dogs.

Single Axle Caravan - Serviced Hardstanding PitchesSep 2023

This mature site with well established tall hedges between the caravan pitches is lovely for added privacy. The pitches are large and the hardstanding is plenty big enough for a caravan, awning and car. We loved the dog walk and the convenient local pub, as well as the on-site Thai takeaway (when they say spicy they mean spicy!) - lovely authentic tasting food. The bathroom block was lovely and clean and the on-site shop really convenient for essentials, with friendly and helpful staff. Loved our stay and we will definitely be back again.

VW-Type Campervan - Electric Grass PitchesSep 2023

Can't rate this little gem of a site enough. Fantastic, very well kept little place with really smart, lovely facilities. Respectful quiet times, unlike other recent sites I've been to, and beautiful walks at bottom of the grass pitch. Site behind nice, simple little park for little ones, fishing lakes to the right and a village walk to the left. Gorgeous scenery on walks, if you appreciate the countryside, and the staff were honestly friendly. I've been to many sites over the years but I really took to Hill Cottage Farm as it's got a lovely, peaceful vibe to the place. I will 110% be returning as much as I can in the future :-)

Thank you for your great review, Daniel. Really glad you enjoyed your stay and appreciated the site, hope to see you again very soon.

Medium Tent - Fully Serviced Grass PitchesSep 2023

Lovely campsite, the cleanest one I've stayed in by far. The toilets and showers were cleaner than most swimming pool changing rooms, which I was very impressed with, considering it was quite wet and muddy weather. I stayed on my own but felt very safe, I liked the number plate recognition barriers for added security and the staff were very easy to get hold of when I needed to ask questions. The dog walk was lovely, a nice way to stretch the legs in the morning and say 'hi' to the horses. Would definitely stay again and recommend to friends and family.

Motorhome - Fully Serviced Grass PitchesSep 2023

This is a beautiful place. Surrounded by lovely countryside. The walk through the woods to the local pub and shops was great! Very peaceful and quiet. Lovely takeaway on site. Local taxi service to another pub was handy. Having a separate car would have been better for us as we came in our motorhome, but we did enjoy the rest. Very clean toilets showers and facilities - the site is excellently maintained. Would highly recommend.

Single Axle Caravan - Serviced Hardstanding PitchesSep 2023

We have just returned from a lovely weekend away at Hill Cottage. The campsite is one of the best we've been to and we will certainly be returning next year for another stay. We stayed on a fully serviced pitch and we found them very spacious and very well kept.

Thanks for your review, Steve. See you next year!

VW-Type Campervan - Electric Grass Hardstanding PitchesSep 2023

We love staying here and come back to it a couple of times a year. The pitches are large, well laid out and most are flat. The facilities are clean and have always been in good working order. The Thai takeaway on site does great food too. This time we stayed on a hard standing with grass pitch. Unfortunately we couldn't get our pegs into the ground as it was just too hard. Even our hard ground pegs weren't able to get through the hardcore so we had no choice but to set up our awning on the grass, which is not allowed. We didn't put the floor down to try to limit any damage to the grass. Only adding this to the review so if any other campervan users book a grass only pitch and don't get caught out like we did. We felt so bad. That being said, when the site team walked around the next day nobody asked us to move it so we relaxed and guessed they didn't mind. A great place, would recommend a stay here. Great walks from the site. Blashford lakes just 10 minutes away (drive) and close to lots of great places to visit.

Site's response

Thanks for your great review Kate. I'm sorry you had trouble pitching this time, we're very realistic and always happy to chat and help find a solution, so please do ask. Look forward to seeing you next year.

Excellent site, very good facilities and quiet

Large Tent - Electric Grass PitchesSep 2023

We had a lovely stay at this campsite. The facilities are very good and everything was kept nice and clean. The downside was that on very hot days there was no shade on our pitch, which made it too hot to spend time onsite. Our 3 year old loved the play park.

Site's response

Thank you for your review Lorna, I'm glad you had sunshine for your stay! I will pass your compliments on to the team.

A lovely site, beautifully landscaped in a great location, and a really nice circular walk for our doggies past the lakes. We didn't have time to explore the walk to the local village and pub...but will certainly do that on our next visit. Very happy with our visit.

Clean and quiet. Small and well run. No issues at all, though shop is very limited in what you can get.

Site's response

Thank you for your review, Daniel. In the shop, we aim to sell the essentials plus ice creams, sweets, and things you may have forgotten to bring. The co-op in the village sells much more, it has free parking and is 15-20 minutes walk from the site. Hope to see you again next year.

Lovely site, really recommend

First time staying. Went with family and three young children. What a beautiful kept site and very peaceful. The kids had a blast in the park and on their bikes. We were in a caravan on the 16amp hard standing. The pitch was huge and quiet.

Large Tent - Electric Grass PitchesAug 2023

On the whole, this was a lovely site, with adequate but clean facilities and a great location. Our only criticism stems from inconsiderate noisy campers, some who talked loudly late into the night making it difficult to get to sleep, and others who woke us up with their non-stop chatter at 5:40am on the Sunday. We were not impressed and would like noise policies to be better defined.

Site's response

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. I'm sorry that you had this issue with other campers. We are very noise conscious and try to plan the pitches accordingly. We have a warden making patrols until midnight and if we are made aware of a particularly noisy pitch, we will make extra checks and ask them to be more considerate.
