As you top the rise on the approach road, you can see the site splendidly set in parkland on the valley floor, with the Forest of Bere at its edge - a superb location. Part of the site is reserved as a children's play and picnic area; you can also walk, cycle, picnic and horse ride, enjoying the peace and quiet of the former royal Forest of Bere. If you want to explore further afield, there's everything from a day trip to the Isle of Wight to a visit to Portsmouth to see the restored ships (the Mary Rose, the Victory, the Warrior). Then you can visit Lee-on-Solent to watch the big ships of today sailing up the Solent.

Located in the midst of the ancient royal hunting forest of William the Conqueror and now National Park, the site has an open aspect and is within walking distance of Brockenhurst. With over 140 miles of track nearby, you can explore the Forest on foot, by cycle or on horseback. The Lyndhurst Museum and Visitors' Centre explains the fascinating history of the Forest, and there are numerous places for the family to visit nearby. Cruise ships can be viewed on the Solent; Southampton & Bournemouth shopping centres are within easy driving distance.

The Site is situated on the outskirts of the small village of Newchurch in the beautiful Arreton Valley, with its numerous country walks. With a  pleasant rural setting, the site offers flat, level, well drained meadowland pitches. Trees and shrubs punctuate the park layout, giving a feeling of privacy. The site presents an ideal location from which to enjoy your holiday. Half the island is designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and there are over 120 attractions and places of interest to visit. The park itself is located in an ideal position to reach all parts of the island, and within easy reach of some of the island’s finest beaches. Sandown and Shanklin are only three miles by road; both these towns share the same sheltered bay with its sandy beaches and safe bathing. Newchurch village with its Norman church is five minutes on foot and there you will also find a pleasant country inn which serves food. Further afield there are many activities available including sea and freshwater fishing, golf, tennis, squash, swimming, horse riding, windsurfing, sailing etc.
