We are looking for recommendations for a CL to stay at next weekend, about a 100 mile radius from Lymington. Must have hook up and preferably at least a loo.  

Please no sarky search comments, have been looking for hours, Internet is slow and getting a bit mind numbing. T

    Is rural Somerset too far? We're off to a new one ( to us) later in the week so I might be able to recommend it when we get there and see what it's like. ( Reviews are very good!) Happy

    Do you want the Cotswolds, if so what about Burtn Ash Farm, Minchinghampton, under Stroud in the SD, No708.

    It would be better if you could give us some idea of which counties you're interested in. 100 ml radius covers a hugh area. You didn't mean a 10ml radius of Lymington did you?

    Yes maybe 100 is a bit wide, probably more like 50. 

    Looking for places to visit. NT EH walks etc.

    Well this place might well suit you - close to the county border. I'll post again when we get there - I'm sure it'll be good looking at the reviews but don't like to recommend a place without having actually visited first ourselves. Happy. Use left and right arrows to navigate.

    (Or if you want to know earlier you could email me - address in my profile - and you could look up the reviews and decide anyway.)

    Thanks for that tip, Nelliethehooker. I'll put that on my list for next year. Happy memories of childhood holidays in Minchinhampton.

    How about the Stourhead Estate, right on a NT property?

    I take it you don't have your handbook and map anymore? Used in conjunction with a road atlas and NT/EH books, can make life very easy, all you have to do then is pick a few potential CLs and check reviews or ask on here. Happy

    Not sure if you're still looking, anothersunrise, but we can recommend Forton House near Chard and just near the Som/Devon/Dorsey border. Very quiet, large pitches well spaced out, lol and shower  - £15 a night.
    Lots of walking and places to visit nearby!     Happy

    Thankyou I will look this one up for next time

    Because of the cost of the IW ferry we have decided to have a staycation.
