THE SITE WAS EXTREAMLY CLEAN GOOD SIZE PLOTS, WITH GREAT ATMOSPHERE AROUND THE CAMPSITE. A VERY GOOD BREAKFAST VAN ON SITE IF U DONT WANT TO COOK. LOVELY LITTLE WOODLAND AREA TO WALK AROUND. NICE PLAY AREA FOR CHILDREN. THE SHOWER/TOILET BLOCK WAS AMAZING I HAVE NEVER BEEN TO ONE SO NICE & AS CLEAN AS THIS ! THEY HAVE FLOWERS, & ALSO MUSIC SO YOU CAN SING ALONG WHILE YOU ARE IN THE SHOWER! & THERES NO PUSH BUTTON SHOWER HERE! IT CAN BE A SUCH A PAIN PUSHING THE BUTTON ALL THE TIME. THE MUSIC IS THERE WHEN YOU ARE WASHING UP YOUR DISHES TOO. ITS A NICE LITTLE TOUCH WHAT MORE COULD YOU ASK FOR! THE LOCATION IS GREAT 5 MIN WALK TO THE PUB WHICH SERVES GREAT FOOD. 5-10 DRIVE TO THE BEST BEACH SANDBANKS WITH A CARPARK NEXT TO IT, ALSO HAS CRAZY GOLF. I WILL BE GOING BACK AS SOON AS I CAN.

An excellent site all round. Ideal for seasoned and first time campers alike. I would certainly recommend a stay. The people are friendly and a lovely location. Toilet facilities are excellent and the showers are great.

We have just returned from a sunny week at South Lytchett Manor. The campsite and facilities were fantastic so we will definitely be regular visitors and recommend the campsite to family and friends. Thank you

Have just returned from a week's visit to your Park. Thank you to everybody who made our stay so successful. The facilities are superb and the staff very helpful and friendly. I am sure we will return soon.

Following the piece about South Lychett Manor in the July '08 edition of "Camping" magazine (recommended for tent campers!), we have just returned from a very comfortable week there, pitched in our Outwell, "Arizona" dome tent. It is a good site, with clean modern ablutions and loos and friendly people running it too. A very great improvement on the previous owners efforts. The middle of the week was quiet, but by Friday night we had lots of good company! A host of friendly and considerate younger folk pitched all around and we were pleased to see that they were mostly tent campers! The two very large motorised mobile homes that turned up looked totally out of place and very "Un-green!"
There is lots to do around Poole, we certainly recommended the boat trips from Poole Quay as good value.You can go to Brownsea Island for a stroll and picnic and have an amusing and interesting tour round the Islands on the way back. We also recommend a Poole Quay-Swanage ferry aboard MV Solent Scene. have a snack in Swanage and go by bus or train from the Station to Corfe, for a nice afternoon tea - before returning by boat to poole.
But this time, we also did something we have never done before - toured around the largest natural harbour in Europe ..completely by Bus! Hailed the No. 40 right outside the gates, stopped off at Wareham for coffee and then through Corfe to the "Scot Arms" at Kingston for lunch (the panoramic view from this pub's garden is fantastic and they do light lunches too!) Next we bussed on in to Swanage and at the Stationt caught the No.50 open-top double deckker to Sandbanks ferry (what a thrilling ride ride!) We had tea on the "posh side" at the friendly Cafe near the Ferry and watched the shipping through the gap - before catching a bus to Poole and finally, the No 40 again back to the S. Lychett Manor site.
Other good trips out from South Lychett Manor can be had to the nearby Tank Museum, Monkey World, the peaceful and beautiful Blue Poole at Furzebrook (just past Wareham on the Corfe Rd) and by bus, or train from Poole Station, to Weymouth.
We love the whole area and will certainly be returning to camp at South Lychett Manor site!
