We are a family of Mum Dad and a boy 7 and a girl 4 and our dog.  We would like to go to the New Forest with our trailer Tent.  We would need and love forest walks in the day and other activites to keep all of us on the go.  We would also like a local pub or club house as well.

Can anyone recommend a good family site with good pub grub etc near by for when we are not BBQing.

I thank you all in advance.

Kind Regards

The Austins

Sandy Balls is a good site - a bit expensive, though.

The Ashurst Camping in the Forest site has 2 pubs witin easy walking distance that do food.

There are walks directly from the siteas it is based in the forest itself.

You are able to drive around and just pick a pitch wherever you want so there are forest parts, open parts, hedged bits & hidden away sections.

Hi 'The Austins'

If you are willing to go a bit further out of the New Forest and can live without a pub close by (although there are some in very short driving distance) then I would highly recommend the Stone family farm in Verwood.  It's a working farm and your kids would absolutely love it!!  I have just come back from there this BH weekend and it was great.  It is also walking distance to Ringwood forest and the Moors Valley park, which is very beautiful and has loads of things for the kids (tree top walks, play areas, steam train etc).

Search UK campsite for Stone Family Farm, read the reviews and decide for yourself. I have just submitted my own review this morning but unfortunatley it's not published yet.

Check out the Red Shoot Camping Park. Right next to the Red Shoot Inn and central to some lovely forest walks.
