Bob Jenny, this is my local site and visit it often. This year the club are spending 3.5 Million on it to put in new toilets, ferry pitches and fully serviced hard standing pitches, so watch this space. Nick T.
Love travelling on the road with the bird’s eye view, makes you feel like you are in the van with you both, you go through some lovely places. Take care and stay safe x
Hi Bob,Jenny and Poppy, it’s a very airy site, like you say could do with a little maintaining. We after 2 to 3 years of researching and taking on board all your wonderful information have bought our very first motorhome, we don’t pick it up until November but it’s well worth the wait. X
So relaxing walking around the campsite with you. Your videos are really good to chill out too. My favourite videos are you arriving at sites. Love it, thank you.
I very much enjoy the journey to the sites. So much is missed when driving oneself and watching your videos is like being a passenger and being able to look at the views going along. The site looks very spacious which is nice, but I don't much like the dated unisex facilities. Perhaps I'm a bit old fashioned but I do like separate loo's and showers.
Enjoying following the trip as always guys. Have to say for me that’s one of the worst sites I’ve seen, can’t believe it’s a club site. Safe to say we will never pitch there! Loved the Corte castle video we love how Poppy bounds ahead on your walks!! Look forward to the next one !
Bob, I have stayed a few times at this site to catch a ferry or break journey. Lunch at Rick Steins and Rive& Cottage (now history I understand) was very pleasant. We parked at pitch 26/27 on the perimeter one time . We were a bit puzzled by the noise in the morning a bit like rain drops. Turns out this was cherry ripening day. The birds eat flesh and dropped the stones on the van and car. At the the end of the day both vehicles looked like a raspberry ripple with excercia . Lucky I had my caravan washing brush otherwise would not been able to see my way out. The top field shower block I was told was be a mortuary - I always use my own facilities . Keep up the good work
We’ve been on this site twice, in 2018 we used it to break our journey from West Yorkshire on route to the Black Knowl and then decided to stay for four nights in August 2020 on our way to Southlands on the Isle of Wight mainly so we could visit Winchester, we also went to Mottisfont and Alton which is a lovely little town and worth a visit. I agree that the facilities are dated but we didn’t use them anyway but the site is nice. We used the very bottom area in the lower section which we found to be very quiet and no bird disturbance that I remember. It reminds me of Tewkesbury before it was refusbihied recently, maybe it’s the same issue a short lease making it not worth while financially for the club to update. It’s a shame because it could be a really nice site and it’s in a good area.
We have been following you from the beginning and still love your perfectly edited journeys, soooooo relaxing. We are off to Scotland this week taking in the many places you have visited. We had booked up for the outer Hebridies last year but had to cancel and intend to go next year. Looking forward to crossing paths someday so I can show of the gadgets you recommended 👌
Great vlog guys. We have been watching all the videos from this tour, but as usual we are hopeless at commenting! We stayed at Morn Hill last summer in the hottest week as I was working at my Southampton office and Vicky worked from the motorhome on site. We stayed in the bottom part which was quieter than the top part but the facilities were the worse we’ve ever experienced, floor constantly soaking wet, no flyscreens on the windows so the toilets were full of every type of bug known to man, awful. That motorhome service point is useless too 🤣 really enjoyed your tour!
Thanks for the review of the site - I'm booked to stay one night to break my trip to Corfe Castle in 5 weeks. I'd Read reviews that said the access from the A31 was a problem but I think I'm better armed for that one now. As I'm going to be arriving late afternoon and nly staying one night I think I'll just take the first available pitch as I'm planning on just winding down the steadies and plugging in the electric. Want to be able to hitch up and go next morning.
For some reason I missed this video. Or at least I don't remember it. We are looking for a November tour and this site seems to be open. I seem to remember that it had a refurb ? Or did I dream about it maybe. Looks like you visited in Summer so we wonder if the grass pitches may be a bit damp in winter. Love the upside down sign LOL. Trev
Hi Bob and Jenny, oh and Poppy. We love your vlogs and never miss one if we can help it. I have a question for Jenny please, if that’s not sexist. We are away for 18 days shortly and am considering using the laundry facilities. Can you tell me do all sites that have laundries also have an iron you can use? I noticed one in your vlog the other day and can’t say I’ve noticed It before. This will effect what clothes we pack. Thank you Sally & Will & PRU 🙋🏼♀️🙋🏻♂️🐶.
Shame about the weather. Just got back from a rainy week in Buxton ourselves. Poppy doesn't seem to mind though. Bob you sounded really upset there were so many caravans. That was a very pleasing site to us.😉
Funny things mobile signals. I went up the Shard in London a few year back and the signal on the 72nd floor was terrible even with the phone mast & dishes above.
Hi Bob, very unusual to see such a poor standard at a caravan & motorhome site, I think I will give this one a miss for now. I read a review the other day for Bladon Chains which was not very good, as it seems the site is closing in the autumn and no money is being spent on it, when things go wrong they don't get repaired. It will be good to hear what you think of the site.
We are new to motorhoming and as yet haven't been on a grass pitch in case it's wet weather and we get stuck ! Have you ever had an issue on a grass pitch ?
No, I can only think of one occasion on a campsite at Keswick when I had to get my grip maps out. Mind you, many club sites are hard standing these days.
I here the Sat Nav has had a sex change, i thought Poppy did not like to Woof instead she prefers to Bark. It looks a fairly nice site a bit odd its in 2 halves but that reminds me of a big private site that was near puddle town north of weymouth. The Touring half of the site was on one side of the road, there was a tunnel under the main road and the other half of the site was reception the static caravans the clubhouse and shop. I remember we went there one year we went there in a touring caravan a long long time ago we did not tell anybody where we were going we only told family members no friends we had been there for a day and i was going to go where the tunnel was to the other half of the site with a member of my family i looked to one of the caravans to the right and i could not believe what i saw, a family who we new fairly well that lived in a different road from us but about 30 to 40 yards from where we lived was there i was totally supprised and so were they. Going back to the site you were on in this video that sign you said was upside down it says on it Arrivals from 6pm to 8pm so it must be for late arrivals and they just spin the sign around.

You do these extremely well.
Great help as we will be travelling to Morn Hill next weekend, just in time! Keep up the good work, we love Poppy!
Looks a nice Site! Bucklers Hard is very near Beaulieu of course! Well worth a visit, the old houses on what life was like.
Looks a great site x
Hi Bob, Jenny & Poppy , it is a good idea about filming the service stations :) always interesting to know what facilities etc.
Love travelling on the road with the bird’s eye view, makes you feel like you are in the van with you both, you go through some lovely places. Take care and stay safe x
Thank you for taking us along. 😊😊
Very nice to see all of that green space as it's getting to be very dry here in British Columbia and mostly brown grass...a fire hazard.
Yes, we moan about the rain but it does keep it green.
Thank you for showing us this site as we will be staying here in September for a night on the way to the IOW 👍
Sorry been informed by my better half it’s August bank holiday not September 😊😊
Hi Bob & Jenny nice video as always nice dog walk for poppy big day for us on sunday my wife 65 any way take care both you see you next time.
Hi Bob,Jenny and Poppy, it’s a very airy site, like you say could do with a little maintaining. We after 2 to 3 years of researching and taking on board all your wonderful information have bought our very first motorhome, we don’t pick it up until November but it’s well worth the wait. X
Great news, what are you getting?
@@BobEarnshawMoHo , we are getting an Elddis Evolution 105, special addition, we love it, we had looked at older vans but the prices were unreal x
Just us2 saying thanks again
So relaxing walking around the campsite with you. Your videos are really good to chill out too. My favourite videos are you arriving at sites. Love it, thank you.
Thanks for the heads up on this site, we’re definitely giving it a wide birth when we’re in the area.😊keep the site reviews coming, excellent.👍🏼👍🏼

Thanks for the video u 2 will be the soon they tell u can get abus into town from there
There was a bus stop outside.
Mottisfont is amazing, love the gardens, noted for the roses when we went about 5 years ago, the river is a delight. Take care.
All ways love your videos so informative,look forward to your next ones. So genuine and like that you show where we can stop for a tea 👍👍🥰
Enjoying following the trip as always guys. Have to say for me that’s one of the worst sites I’ve seen, can’t believe it’s a club site. Safe to say we will never pitch there!
Loved the Corte castle video we love how Poppy bounds ahead on your walks!! Look forward to the next one !
I never thought about the C-19 effect. You are probably correct. Thanks anyway. I may sneak a travel iron under the seats when hubby isn’t looking 👍🏻
Great video thanks 😊
Hello Bob and Jenny and poppy .👍🐕

Keep up the good work
So glad we use our own, sometimes!
We were down that way in the week at Littlehampton, looking towards Winchester for a future visit, nice video.
Another great video. We are enjoying your guided tour from the comfort of our armchairs in midwinter Auckland.
It's been like midwinter in the UK, last few weeks!

Yes, I think we would have preferred to be on the lower half.

Sounds like I've cost you a fortune! 😊
@@BobEarnshawMoHo haha yes for sure. Colapz, Netgear M2 etc :)😀 oh and A Frame .

Glad we didn't use the toilets then sounded worse than I filmed!

We been there before definitely in need of a up date apart from that a nice site 👍

We went there again last year after the refurbishment, really nice site.

We can't answer because we don't do any ironing, so we don't always notice! I suspect that irons may have been removed since the pandemic.
Shame about the weather. Just got back from a rainy week in Buxton ourselves. Poppy doesn't seem to mind though.
Bob you sounded really upset there were so many caravans. That was a very pleasing site to us.😉
No, I was just surprised how many there were.
Poppy is so cute as always
Funny things mobile signals. I went up the Shard in London a few year back and the signal on the 72nd floor was terrible even with the phone mast & dishes above.
Hi Bob just stopped at morn hill and both sites have male and female seperate toilets and showers
Thanks, that's a relief now that toilet blocks are open fully!
@@BobEarnshawMoHo yes brilliant video great help keep up good work

Hi both, was it you on the M6 toll heading north this morning about 10.30 ?
Yes we were heading that way.
I don't think I'd bother staying here!
