Hip Young Things

My husband and I just returned from Roundhill after taking a two and a half day break camping in the New Forest area. Before camping though, see my husband likes camping and I do not, we booked a room at one of the Brockenhurst Hotels so I could enjoy a nice luxurious bed and hot shower during our time off also. New Forest campsite is a beautiful spot, though, don’t get me wrong, it’s just he understands my needs for creature comforts and I understand his needs to be out in the wilderness.

The campsite is lovely and had plenty of space for pitching. New Forest is my husbands favorite spot to camp. I enjoyed being bugged by ponies, cows and donkeys who wander around freely. But, we did have to keep our food locked up and away from them. They all had a tendency to take a bite if we weren’t looking. There are signs posted all over saying not to feed them, but the animals don’t read well.

Luckily, I took a hot shower at the hotel, because my husband told me that the showers at the campsite were not hot. I just smiled at him all the while thinking to myself, yes dear, that’s why I like hotels! Oh, and then I did have to say that we are campers in a tent, this isn’t a five star hotel. He just laughed. We did find the staff here very friendly and helpful. There’s also an 11pm curfew which seemed like no one adhered to though. Lots of children still running around and making all kinds of noise playing. I didn’t mind too much, because I knew this was the last week of summer holidays and the site was full. Overall, though, I must admit, this campsite is quite beautiful, just don’t expect peace or tranquility because there’s too many children around.
