Hi,

just been let down by Sandy Balls and now looking for a campsite for mid June in the new forest area.  Someone suggested lytton lawn but reviews say gentle slope but just how bad is the slope any other suggestions?

Do you have a tent or caravan??

We went to Lytton Lawn a coupke of years ago - quite pleaseant and peaceful. From what I remember the slop was not much of one at all!

If you have a caravan or motorhome etc. I can highly recommend Bashley Park (Hoburne)

We did not have to level on the pitch we used at Lytton Lawn. It is a nice site.  Bashley is also good, I would use either site at anytime.

Lytton Lawn does not have the facilities but you can use the pool, sports facilities and club house at Shorefields up the road.  But don't forget to go for some walks in the New Forest and look for the wildlife.

we've stayed that way a few times & fell in love with christchurch, mudeford & highcliffe

have a great time

hi - I grew up in that part of the world. Would recommend cycling down to Keyhaven and catching a little boat over to Hurst Castle.   You could cycle into Milford-on-Sea which is a nice little village about 5 mins from that site, all the pubs are geared up for holiday makers. Theres even a creperie there now apparantly. Not sure if you've got children but you could get some fish scraps from the local fishmonger and then go crabbing. Theres a little holiday cafe called the Needles cafe and is great for icecreams (fried breakies) and sells all the stuff you would need for crabbing. Also Lymington is lovely as well, more goes on there and on saturday there is a great market down the high street. 

I am sure you will have a lovely time.
