Any caravan or motorhome enthusiast planning an early-season trip to the New Forest this spring will have more site options to consider, as Camping New Forest has announced that several of its sites in the area are opening sooner than expected.
Guests can now visit Ashurst, Roundhill, Hollands Wood, Ocknell, Holmsley and the adults-only campsite Longbeech, which are open for campers, caravanners and motorhomes.
“We’re thrilled to welcome guests back earlier than expected this year,” said Denis Dooley, chief executive of Camping New Forest. “This season marks a new chapter for Camping New Forest. Whether guests are returning regulars or first-time visitors, they’ll find even more ways to relax, reconnect, and make lasting memories in the heart of the New Forest.”
Visitors can also take advantage of a range of new offers and activities across the brand’s sites.
Among the new additions for the 2025 season is a £150,000 refurbishment of the Holmsley site, which is one of the brand’s most popular destinations. This has benefited from a full renovation of the on-site shop and takeaway area, as well as the addition of a brand-new children’s play area.
Meanwhile, Camping New Forest is also launching new ‘Camping Community’ events for this year, which will bring like-minded camping and caravan enthusiasts together for a curated New Forest experience with reduced pitch fees and discounted entry to local attractions.
The first takes place at Roundhill Campsite from May 12th to 16th and includes a guided walk, visits to Exbury Gardens, a scenic Beaulieu River cruise and access to the Beaulieu MotorMuseum.
