Setthorns is one of our favorite sites and we visit it 4 or 5 times a tear from Essex. Directions as above when you leave the M3 you should take the M27 West bound. Exit M27 at junction 1, take 1st exit at end of slip road then turn right at next roundabout to Lyndhurst. In Lyndhurst follow the oneway stem (no problems with a caravan) and take the A35 West bound for Christchurch. In approx 7 miles you go over an old railway bridge and immediatley will see a sign for Setthorns , turn left here, then at next T junction turn right.Keep going straight on and up a hill where you will see a signpost for site, turn right then right again and site is approx 0.5 miles on the right.
For stops we tend to stop at Hook services as there is plenty of parking.
We usualy look far a pitch at the Pine Tops part of the park as it is in the woodland area with individual pitches (TV reception good).
Hope you have a good stay.
