Hollands Wood Caravan and Campsite

Gostou Location great - easy access to forest direct from site, facilities good and lovely local area.

Não gostou Grumpy jobsworth rule enforcer running the place, no washing lines (not even strung between tent and car), no bikes leaning on trees, etc - the list goes on. Pitch included pup tent but was told I couldn't use it cos they are for kids only, couldn't pay for another pitch even though there was loads of space next to our van (cos they need to be 6m apart) and there no designated pitches. Was told I could use it as a storage tent next to the van, but nobody could sleep in it. Daft. Site would also be a mudbath in wet weather, fortunately we've had a long dry spell.

Gostou Location, customer service, cleanliness

Não gostou Not disliked, but could do with more charging towers for those with battered old cars that rely on sat nav on the phone 😂

Gostou Fantastic location within the new forest- lots to do - close to local villages to visit, east and walk around. The camp site has fantastic toilet and showering amenities which are thoroughly cleaned throughout the day. We will definitely be returning, thank you.

Gostou This is a very easy accessible. The staff are amazing it is a site with plenty of shade if that is what you prefer. Dog friendly with plenty of beautiful walks. A very relaxing site, but it was so nice to see families having fun. Staff always on hand and facilities are extremely clean.

Gostou This is a beautiful site in the midst of the New Forest and you are literally surrounded by nature. The ponies amble past in the early morning and cows came by in the evening. It’s great to be able to choose your own pitch but despite the informality everything was very well run. Showers and toilets clean and plentiful for the large site. Great for cycling and walking or just sitting around under the trees.
We would return.

Gostou I’ve always loved Hollands Wood. I’ve been coming here for over 30 years, and it’s still my favourite campsite. Great location (right by Brockenhurst and by a river for my children to play in), great facilities, loads of space (even when fully booked, it wasn’t a squeeze!), and very friendly staff. The new coffee/ice cream shop is a great addition!

Não gostou The ground can be a bit tough to break through with normal pegs (worth buying rock breakers). Obviously this isn’t the fault of the campsite, and certainly wouldn’t put me off returning.

Gostou The clear entrance and friendliness of staff

The experience of camping in woods with ponies walking through

Toilets and showers were immaculate considering the foot traffic

Não gostou The neighbour playing his football commentary loudly from his car took away some of the tranquility of the peace

But that’s people for you as the campsite was wonderful

Gostou A great campsite. We would definitely stay again, we brought our campervan and met up with family staying close by in a tent. It is a great place for children they loved making dens and climbing trees.

Gostou It was a lovely country feel with clean and practical services, staff are really friendly and engaging. It was fantastic to be able to camp between the trees with the horses and cattle roaming free. Just be aware make sure you put your food away as there is one naughty horse that loved nothing more than try to nick my doughnuts.

Não gostou The only thing that put a dent on our stay that there were a few people that didn’t understand or respect the curfew time of 10 pm.

Gostou Loved everything about the site. Staff couldn't have been more helpful if they tried. Very tidy and a overall a fantastic experience for the family.
