Nestled between heathland, Blackwater Stream and Ober Water, this campsite truly revels in the beauty of the New Forest. Made up of grandiose forest, open green fields, heathland views, and frequented by the New Forest’s free-roaming wildlife, Aldridge Hill campsite delights all that enter, and refreshes all who stay.


Whether you pitch in the shadows of the ancient trees, next to the trickling Ober Water and Blackwater Stream, or in full view of a rich heathland expanse, you’ll discover one of life’s unique getaways. What better place to relax and unwind with your treasured family and friends?


As you settle into your pitch, taking in all the site has to offer including the New Forest’s beautiful free-roaming ponies, relaxation will subtly work its way into your life.

Once you’re settled in, why not enjoy one of the many forest walks accessed directly from site? We recommend following the relaxing Ober Water Trail and taking in the beautiful scenery composed of ancient trees and the calm Ober Water.

Also well within walking distance of the site are Ober Heath, a favourite spot of the forest’s red deer and Whitefield Moor, a peaceful place perfect for children’s games or a  family picnic.

Just two miles away is the pretty village of Brockenhurst perfect for a jaunt to the pub or for stocking up on provisions for camp.

Lovely stay

Really lovely stay in a beautiful location, staff were all very friendly and helpful, and very vigilant about cleanliness - walking around and picking up any rubbish that had been left behind. I would certainly stay here again

Recycling
/
Disappointed to see there was not separate bins for Bottle Recycling or Dog Poo. Also lack of dog poo bins in the surrounding area. Having said that the campsite was lovely and we would go again, nice to be able to set up virtually where you like and not in a regimented fashion like other sites.
Unit Type: RV Motorhome
Magical site!
/
Our first time at Aldridge Hill Site - definitely not our last. Welcome by the Wardens was very warm. Easy to find a pitch, despite high season and good weather! We pitched overlooking the heath. Everyone was friendly and spoke warmly of their many visits - 60 years was the most! Facilities - water and waste worked. (Shame no bottle recycling but certainly looked like everyone took glass home with them 👍). Easy walk into Brockenhurst from the site. They offer excellent value battery charging for phones (50p) and Leisure batteries! Best ever was the £3 late checkout (til 5pm)! We’d love to return and would recommend this site highly!

Idyllic
/
Our first visit to Aldridge Hill, and what a find! The situation was perfect, with beautiful sunsets and amazing views over the surrounding areas from our pitch. Walks through the forest, and bike rides into the lovely village of Brockenhurst filled some of our time, and the daily "entertainment" provided by our visitors- cattle and ponies- completed a wonderful "off grid" stay. The site wardens were friendly, and the site was well looked after. The peace and quiet was very welcome.
Unit Type: Motorhome
Great site with stunning wildlife and sunsets
/
We have been to this site numerous times and still love it. Very friendly and helpful wardens. Great location with easy access to walking and cycling paths. We often see deer nearby and have an abundance of horses and other animals. The sunsets are amazing across the “plains”. We will be back.
Unit Type: RV Motorhome
Back to nature
/
Peaceful site providing a real back to nature experience of no light pollution, ancient woodland, wild ponies and ability to forgo the car and walk to Brockenhurst, Rhinefield, lyndhurst. Grateful of the shade as hot and sunny.
Unit Type: Caravan
This site is beautiful
/
The site is well looked after by the staff, and it is excellent with the river running right by the site, plenty of walks from site. We walked into Brockenhurst and had a nice meal.We would recommend this site to anyone who likes being close to nature. We will be returning again and again.
Unit Type: Motorhome
