You should try Sandy Balls- My parents took me there as a child some twenty years ago and have been countless times since. Fantastic place for children- plenty of activities- kids craft centre/ walks/ swimming pools/ bike hire. Plus pub on site- so adults don't have to travel far.

Hello,
Just got back from Holmsley, New Forest with our three children - Ideal location, right in the forest, close to great towns such as Christchurch and 20 minute drive to beaches but unfortunately very noisy late at night. Would definitely recommend area but you will have to ask others if they could recommend an alternative site.

Hope this helps.

We didn't find Holmsley noisy at night at all, but that might be a case of who you are camped next door to!

As a rule there is no entertainment at NF sites, you could try Sandy Balls, Shamba, Bashley or Oakdene, at the end of the day, if the kids are happy, you are happy!

Whoops, Bashley don't allow tents, sorry!
