Sorry to say, can't come. It was a difficult decision. Do we want our daughter and family (3 lovely kids), who we haven't seen since New Year, to come and stay for TWO WEEKS? Or do we want to go camping. Errr, see you all next time!!
 
Hi Sue. Can now only make 3 nights Fri/Sat/Sun due to visits to parents in care homes! Hope that is OK.
Karen & Adrian

The meet is on, yay! The meet will have to be governed by the current Government restrictions. Fees are £8 per unit per night, excellent value for school holidays in the New Forest.

Please also read this: https://motorhomer.com/threads/campsite-covid-safety-rules.42399/

The meet is in a field, water, rubbish bins and toilet emptying, but no toilets this year for your own safety. Please be hygiene mindful for you and others when you use the water, elsan and bins. NO FIRES, the area is very vulnerable, GAS BARBECUES ONLY supervised and off the ground.

Dogs are allowed on site but must be kept under control at all times and are not allowed on other pitches.

The nearest pub is now The Rosie Lea tea rooms, restaurant & bar, The Filly Inn is 1.1 miles up the road, the vineyard (see below) a bit further, The Red Lion is .8 mile down the road and The Fleur de Lys dating back to 1096 is a bit further on at 1.6 miles.

There is a security gate which has to be locked at night, arrivals strictly 10am - 6pm. It would be helpful when you book if you could indicate how many nights you plan to stay and which day you plan to arrive.

FEES (£8 per unit per night) IN CASH ON ARRIVAL, in a sealed envelope with your name, forum name, registration number, number of nights and amount enclosed written on the outside.

Please bring bags that can be tied/sealed to put your rubbish in before putting in the bin. Dog waste in a separate bin.

There is an hourly bus to Brockenhurst/Southampton and Lymington which stops at the gate, this will have restricted capacity. Will have timetable at the meet.

There's a huge very popular STREET MARKET IN LYMINGTON on Saturdays. http://www.lymingtonmarket.co.uk/ which is now open.

The CAR BOOT sale is happening but it may be scaled down a little from last year.

Lymington to Yarmouth (IOW) ferry will be running from 17th July every 2 hours. Will have timetable & prices at the meet

The New Forest Tour bus is running! Will have prices/info at the meet.

VINEYARD, sadly for you wine buffs there are no tours nor wine tasting because of Covid. However, there is a tearoom, a very well stocked licensed farm shop ( 9-5.30 Monday to Saturday, 10-5 Sunday) and a garden centre (same hours as shop) all following strict guidelines.

We’re not manning the gate so turn left when you arrive. If you need water or Elsan it’s the other side of the green building in front of you as you come through gate. If your route is through Lyndhurst I would suggest you head to Beaulieu/Fawley A326 from the motorway and then take directions to Brockenhurst which is a couple of miles up the road.

This is Junction 2 on M27. DO NOT come of at Junction 1 and follow your sat nav as this could bring you into a queue for the traffic lights in Lyndhurst which can be as much as an hour wait
 
To the dog owner that has allowed their dog off the lead to crap on the field if I find out who you are You will be banned. I have no tolerance at all for lazy people who just let their dogs out.

Dogs always on leads
Dog mess always picked up
No dogs on other people’s pitches

If you are not happy to follow these rules, do not come.
