We initially only booked 3 nights and ended up staying 7 - the peace and quiet was second to none we had ever experienced before - staff at Ocknell were so helpful, very friendly and you felt they all loved their jobs - ample space to pick the site that suited your needs and a abundance of friendly wildlife - the rainy weather never stopped us having fun here - hopeful to return before the season closes Thank you from Kim and Graham

This is now an adults only campsite and we stayed in our Motorhome for a long weekend in June. No need for hard standing as the ground was very hard, this place is so peaceful , with lots of wild life strolling through the campsite (horses, cows and deer). loads of walking or cycling paths.

We stayed 3 times during the summer months and will no doubt be back again next summer. Absolutely love the site. Adults only is a plus too.

Brilliant Forest site. Sheltered under mature oak and beech trees. Ponies, deer and cattle graze on the site. No toilets, so bring your own. Pick up the permit from nearby Ocknell campsite. Update for April 2024...now an adults only site.

It’s a shame they have changed the rules and have chosen to discriminate against children in such a wonderful place. A bit weird how they picked the best of all their sites to do this. Some one alleged to me that a very wealthy person who stays there doesn’t like to hear children over his afternoon gin and tonic.
