 I have not been camping since I was in the army cadets 13 years ago. This put me off somewhat and when I was asked by my in laws I was very wary on going. I need not have worried as we had a fantastic time. The site was clean and tidy, Jane and Tony were excellent, we had a problem with a teenager with a air rifle. I told Jane & Tony and the problem was resolved in 10 minutes flat.
The site is great for children and adults as the kids can play in the large open space and the adults can chill and still keep an eye on there children.
The shower/toilet block is constantly cleaned by staff and I have never had to wait for a shower even when the site was full. The on site shop has restricted opening times but you make a note of what the times are and you adjust to this.
I personally took an electric hook up lead that was too short, I spoke to Jane and she kindly let me borrow her spare, with no charge.
We were able to get our ice packs put in the freezer for our days out and this was only charged by a donation.
Jane and Tony walk around and chat to the people that like to make conversation. They tidy up as they go around and make sure people stay within there pitch, but if you go as a party they don't mind you going on each others pitches.
The welcome was warm and we received instructions and pitch locations straight away.
The pitches are level and kept in good condition.
Me and my family enjoyed this holiday so much we actually went and bought a tent as soon as we got back and booked our holiday in 2010.
Paultons park is around the corner. Local shops and supermarkets are close. There is a small paddling pool near by in a play park that is supervised and free. Testwood lakes is good for an afternoon walk and picnic. Bournemouth beech is an hour away. And there is a cracking Chinise takeaway about 10 mins down the road. You can also just drive down the road and dump you car in a free car park in the New Forest and take a stroll among the forest's and walk close to the ponies that roam around free and if you ask my kids they will tell you about the pigs as well. Longdown activity park is great for kids, as well as the owl and otter centre, the list goes on. Pop in to the shop on the camp site and pick up the various leaflets that are there.
People do moan about the noise from the M27, but we found that you hear it for the first night and you don't hear it anymore.
This site is really easy to find and for a very small fee (I think £2 for the week) you can get access to the cricket club clubhouse by the entrance to the campsite.
I have not booked for this year yet (awaiting Holiday approval from work), but will be going back for the third time in 3 years.

Just had our first visit to green pastures farm.This was the best holiday we have had in a long time.The owners were very friendly and help full nothing was too much trouble for them.The sight was spacious and very clean.
The peace and quiet made our holiday great for relaxing and it was good to see how the middle of the sight was left open for children to play safely and all the children seemed to play together.
The toilet block and showers were all ways clean with lots of hot water and we never had to wait for a shower the whole time we were there.We would recommend this sight to any one.We will be returning.

Have just spent 6 nights on this site. When we first arrived the site looked basic but once pitched you see it is actually just what you need!
There were only two showers and four toilets so could imagine in high season they could be busy but for us there was never a queue. They were well kept and very clean. I loved the fact that the tents were all
around the edge of the field and there was a massive field in between for children / adults to play on, this wasn't intrusive to the campers.
The site is really well located to explore the New Forest. It was an excellent and we would go back again. The owners were very friendly and they walked around checking the site a few times a day.

We only stayed one night at this lovely little site as we used it as a stopover on our way to Weymouth. However we would have happily stayed longer. The site had a lovely relaxed atmosphere about it and the facilities were clean and well maintained.
On our way to an Asda store a distance of about 4 miles we passed a park where I noticed a large paddling pool which I presume was free to the public there were picnic tables and benches around the pool. I also saw people walking dogs in the park.Green Pastures seems to be a very popular site and we would gladly return if we were touring in that area.

We have been here on numerous occasions over the past 3 years and we love it! It's perfect for us as a weekend getaway with our friends and their children. Always a good welcome from Jane & Tony and the facilities are clean but could do with another couple of showers and washing up sinks. We love the open field where the kids have the freedom to play and we can see them at all times. There is a constant hum from the motorway but this is so much better than the noise we experience from loads of people returning from a nights entertainment at another 'family' campsite we visited recently.

We (my Husband, myself and little boy - almost 2) have just had a fabulous 8 days camping at Green Pastures.
Jane and Tony couldn't have been more welcoming and helpful. After a long hot 10 hour journey we were shown to the camping field and to our site- partly under the shade of trees and overlooking the large clean and clear grassy area where our son spent the week tottering and having the time of his life with other children.
We had elec hook up (no plug in shower block).
The pitches are flat, no litter, no unruly/noisy neighbours (except the odd whinny from the horses) and the M27 hum proved to be far from a problem - preferable to intermittent cars. Infact probably a bonus subduing chat from other groups.
Toilet/shower block was fine - cleaned daily, and everyone seemed to use the mop after their showers which kept muddy/grassy footprints at bay. No queues, perfect temperature showers.
Jane's little shop has the basics and all local attraction info.
If you have children we would highly reccommend Paultons Park (literally around the courner), Beaulieu motor park (much more for kids than you would expect!) and a day at Moors Valley forest park is fabulous (forest play trail, bike hire, steam train).

On arrival, we were greeted warmly by Jane, who had her grandson 'helping' to book people in! I was asked if I had the time so he could book me in, which of course I agreed to. Jane did a quick sketch on the back of a scrap of paper to direct us to our pitch. There was no other information given or indication to washing up facilities, toilets, showers,etc.
We paid £5 per night extra as we have a larger tent, which I don't mind, and presumed that the pitch would accommodate this. We got to our pitch and were slightly bemused. We were told to pitch and park the car beside the tent, if we had done this, we would have been parked on our neighbour's pitch.
The pitches run round the perimeter of the site, with a vast area in the middle for the children to play, which was nice. The showers.Only 2 of them, were not all that clean. There was a mop and a bucket of dirty water with a patronising sign above stating that if you did not know how to use a mop, to see the site owners so that they could give you a lesson! The sealant around the shower trays was black and the tile grout was mouldy too. Trying to get 3 children showered was not an easy feat. The buttons were a bit too high for them to reach and they were quite hard to push. I felt very aware of people waiting for the shower, so the children were strip washed with baby wipes after that. The toilets, again were not all that clean, the tiles on the wall were dirty and there was always toilet paper on the floor.
The surrounding area is pretty, and this site is very well situated for access to the major roads for getting out and about. The site is close to the M27 and there is a constant hum of traffic, but I have to say, it did not become intrusive.
The town of Totton, was only 10 minutes away, if you want a take away, etc. And there is a large Morrisons in the other direction about the same distance away.

Just come back from a fantastic few days at Green Pastures Farm. The owners were really helpful and friendly. There is a big space in the middle for the children to play and that you can view from anywhere. Even being on a very hot spring bank holiday weekend and being full there still seemed like you had loads of room.
Facilities were really clean and no spiders/bugs.
Over the bank hol weekend the other field was full too so that made queuing for the showers (only 2 for ladies and 2 for men) but by Monday evening you could shower whenever you wanted without a wait. Also, the showers have glass doors on so it's good for showering toddlers without them escaping! Also keeps your clothes dry. However, on the other hand, its a press button shower which did get rather annoying at times.
The only downside as far as I'm concerned was the traffic noise from the M27. It was a constant hum which you do get use to and on a plus side, it stopped you hearing your neighbours snoring / conversations as the hum really did overtake.
However, despite this - my kids (4 & 6) loved it. They were able to cycle around the whole field or play football / cricket / frisbee etc without us worrying where they were as we could see them at all times. They have never been so content while on holiday.
Also very close to the lovely cycle paths/walks in the New Forest. None within cycling distance for children but only a short drive away to lots of free scenic days out on our bikes.
Highly recommend this site and will be returning some day.

Visited over the early May bank holiday. The site was very busy all weekend.
The site owners walked around every day inspecting the site, and were cheery.
As per earlier comments, the facilities looked a few years old, but were clean. There were queues at peak times, especially for the ladies, but always plenty of hot water.
The site was a flat field and when we arrived, there were a few puddles next to our allocated pitch. These did dry to a muddy patch which seemed to attract our children to play in!
Being in a Tent, we did hear the motorway traffic, but during the day and evening it was a constant hum which was more of background noise which didn't affect us.
Overall an enjoyable break and a good base to explore the New Forest.

This is a great site , especially those with children. We were, as everyone says, walked to our pitch which was a very good size and clean with no debris on it, owner apologised for it being muddy on the path but I have seen much more mud and it had rained for most of the week before, dried out after few dry days.
Tents / caravans etc are mostly around a big open field so you can see your kids playing , always seemed to be a football match going on. Saying that the place went very quiet from 8-30pm, so no problem noise.
My kids aged 7 and 5 loved the horses that were in near fields , dog walk very good leads into wooded area.
There are 2 showers in males and 2 showers in females , only had to wait once for a shower , showers were push button and I think it would have been a bit to hot for our kids, reasonably clean .
Situated near motorway but I never heard any traffic noise but I appreciate that some people may.
15 mins from Southampton and 25 mins from Portsmouth .
I found Portsmouth a very nice city especially the waterfront, very clean with lots of nice bars, restaurants, shops.
All in all a great little site if visiting this area
