Our touring caravan site near Bournemouth has a full range of on-site facilities, to ensure visitors have a peaceful caravan holiday in the lovely South West of England.

Convenient location

There are plenty of towns, villages and attractions within easy reach of our Dorset caravan site. The bustling town of Poole is just three miles away and Bournemouth, Swanage, Weymouth and Dorchester are all a short drive away. A number of major towns can be accessed via a scenic bus, which stops just outside the park’s entrance. This is great for caravan owners who would prefer to leave their vehicle safely on site.

Our award-winning Dorset caravan park is surrounded by idyllic countryside and iconic landmarks along the Jurassic Coast are closeby. Durdle Door and Lulworth Cove can be reached within 30 minutes and lesser known beauty spots such as Kimmeridge, Worbarrow Bay and Tyneham Village are perfect places to visit for the day.
