We went to Roundhill

Seems more pricey these days but it now does have showers rather than strip wash cubicles.

The site is a really great flat expanse with ponies and donkeys roaming around. It's right on the cycle trails too and near Brockenhurst

No criticism of the site, but we booked a weekend at Red Shoot last year and couldn't make it due to a family crisis :roll: Even with 2 weeks notice the owners would not entertain a refund or credit note or rebooking the next week or nowt. Not that they're obliged to probably but it would have been nice.
I'm sure it's a lovely site but I'll never know :cry:

Hi
We have just stayed in the Milford on Sea. A place call Lytton Lawn. The people were so nice. Toilets / showers very clean. There is a little shop on site but then they have another site close by which has all facilities including pool, bar restuarant etc etc. You are near Brockenhurst etc so easy to go for walks / bike rides etc.

Have a look at the link and see what you think :ok
