This popular offer enters its 3rd year and we are delighted to announce both Easter and Summer dates this year.

Tile Barn is a 14 acre site situated within a 20 minute walk of Brockenhurst train station, which is within Brockenhurst village. It is in the heart of the New Forest and an extremely popular camping destination. Brockenhurst boasts many pubs, tea rooms and quaint forest shops. It has miles of open forest and enclosures, along with walking, cycling and horse riding routes. There are many interesting towns and villages within a short drive of the centre, such as Lymington with its famous Saturday Market, extending down the whole of the High Street, Beaulieu and the Motor Museum, Bucklers Hard and Lyndhurst. Just a short train journey away are Bournemouth, Poole and Southampton.

Hampshire County Council and Hampshire schools and academy employees and their families are invited to make use of this exclusive site, usually only available for pre-booked groups and schools. The employee must be the person that makes the booking and is present for the duration of the stay. We can not accept any bookings by an employee on behalf of someone else. The centre is not open to the general public.

The cost for camping is £7.50 inc VAT per person per night and under 5yrs go free. A deposit of half of the cost of your stay is due upon confirming the booking and final payment of your stay will be due upon arrival. Cancellation will result in the loss of deposit.
