Sunnydale Farm Caravan Park & Storage

Perfect location for Southampton Boat Show, Cowes Week and the New Forest. The site is situated 3 miles East of Southampton City Centre with bus stops nearby for Southampton & Hamble (bus every 30mins), Gosport and Portsmouth (bus every hour).  Also, for those more adventurous, it is just a short distance from The Solent Way Coastal Route for hikers and cyclists. We also offer year round Secure Caravan Storage. Serviced pitches available all year with electric, water and grey waste drainage.  The toilets & showers have underfloor heating and laundry room with washing machines, tumble driers, iron, ironing board, kettle, microwave, freezer and information brochures. Had a very enjoyable stay at Sunnydale at the weekend seeing friends not seen for over 30 years. I would like to say how helpful and understanding the ladies were. The site was very clean tidy toilets and showers were excellent. A lovely field to walk the dogs. They loved it! Will definitely stay again. We used it as a caravan camping test with the recently bought one, on a second of January. Not new to camping with our tents first, and the trailer tent later, though. The owners have been really helpful, they gave us lot of advice (even helped us to reverse the caravan for the first time!) and the installations are superb. Electricity, water taps and waste drain are close to your site. Electricity points have all the safety points, and they are not "under powered" as in other campings; we were using our electric kitchen and the electric radiator (3000w both together) without a hassle. The bathrooms and showers were in excellent condition all day long, and you have big washing machines and dryers, along a microwave and a kettle, in the main building. Really helpful. Maybe it's worst when the camping is completely full, but I must say, we were there with other 20 caravans and RVs (on a Jan 2nd!) and everything was lovely.

Unpleasant. This campsite really has zero redeeming features. Staff blame everything on the elusive owners. The showers are cold. The rules are ridiculous. You are not allowed to choose your own pitch. You have to stay in their pre designated pitch. The shower/toilet block has underfloor heating, which is never on, or on so low it feels cold, & it's Nov/Dec time. It is cold. The shower water automatically turns off after 30 seconds, and to say the water was tepid would be extremely generous. So between the water being cold, turning off every few seconds and no or very little heating in the block, it meant showering was a daily miserable experience. Followed by a rapid retreat to the van to warm up. Ridiculous. The male warden using the sinks in the ladies to wash his mugs (very slowly) and didn't even have the courtesy or common decency to leave, regardless of females entering to use the facilities. Plus the fact that the kitchenette and gents were right next door. Why?? Literally next door. They provide washing machine however you are not allowed a washing line on your pitch. You must use the one and only communal line. I was asked to remove my portable rotary washing line and use the one provided, which had just been completely filled by the wardens themselves on the one and only nice day of weather in at least a week. The male warden then had a good old gawp at my smalls. Chemical waste is disposed of down a designated toilet at the waste point. It's not the cleanest or easiest way to dispose of waste, but it works, I suppose. The site, in general, just gives a very bad vibe and an uneasy feeling of always being watched or spied on. We couldn't wait to leave.

Lovely site. Toilet block is spotless. Using the site as a base whilst on a training course. Owners are super pleasant and our proud of their site. Ideal place for anywhere on the southampton waters area.

Stayed for one night in my motor home and paid for a late stay whilst visiting Southampton Boat Show. I have a scooter so it was really convenient to drive to the show. Very accommodating staff. Sue was brilliant in sorting out my pitch last minute and fitting me in. Very pleasant lady with a lovely smile. Nice level grass pitch with electricity. Excellent security with ANPR barriers. You can hear road noise in the distance but not intrusive. Facilities clean and tidy. Warden couple also helpful and busy on the site keeping everything as it should be. Thank you for a brief but pleasant stay. Will come again if needing to stay in the area. I actually own my own camp site and will recommend this one to others.

Stayed in campervan for two nights. Greeted on arrival and details checked. Taken to camping area and told where to find facilities. Toilet and shower blocks clean. Laundry room with washing machine, dryer, washing up sinks and small freezer for ice blocks only and microwave - open between 9.00a.m and 8.00pm. Was lucky to have electric hookup with water tap next to it, so didn't have to go far for water. Electric barrier to let vehicles out and number plate recognition to let you back in. I wouldn't call it a shop as such at reception, but there are a few bits available to buy in an emergency such as electric cable. Local area leaflets available. Didn't need help but suspect if anything needed, staff more than happy to help or advise. Warden on site. Clean and safe and quiet. Convenient as a base for local area. Would highly recommend.
