  • Landlig plads i Dorset 12,8 km fra Dorchester og 25,7 km fra kysten
  • Skattejagt og gåture i naturen få skridt derfra
  • 1,6 km fra tre pubber, en tesalon og en butik i Cerne Abbas
Warning! A trip to ancient Cerne Abbas may leave you with a mammoth yearning never to leave: the Dorset village has been described as the ‘Britain’s most desirable village’ to live among the UK’s scenic many. It’s eight miles from Dorchester, within day-tripping distance of the Jurassic Coast and, most famously, is where the 180ft Cerne Abbas Giant doth dwell high up on the hillside. (Yes, the naughty giant with no sense of shyness.) Around a 40-minute stroll from Cerne Abbas is the mightily convenient Giants Head Caravan & Camping Park, a family- and dog-friendly site over three and a half acres with grassy pitches, immense views over the Dorset countryside and thumping good access to the best of Dorset. Countryside walks, as well as treasure trails, literally start within steps of the pitches: Giants Head has several planned walks straight from the park, and runs Treasure Trails Dorset directly from it so intrepid guests can pick up one or two of the 50+ trail packs and take off on the hunt for hidden gems. Sounds like a towering amount of fun… As befits its location, everything at Giants Head is kept nicely natural – think mature trees, hedgerows and trim lawns; and the level or gently sloping pitches are variously secluded, shady or open (there’s also a special tail-wagging area for campers with canines). All parts of the park are well-drained and a hard road leads to pitches. Amenities include showers, hand basins, laundry and washing-up areas; the park doesn’t have a shop, but a well-stocked village store, a tearoom and three pubs are in Cerne Abbas, a mile and a quarter away.

Det siger kunderne

Velkommen og venligt personale, rene faciliteter (især det nye toilet), gode omgivelser. Grundlæggende, men velholdt og god værdi. Vejstøj bemærket, nogle skrå pladser, men renovering i gang.

Areal med græs med elektricitet

Syntes om Very friendly welcome and we were led to our pitch which was a nice personal touch. Lovely views of nearby countryside. Nice walk to Cerne Abbas and to see the Giant.

Syntes ikke om Had to queue for a toilet a few times - only 3 toilets and the site was very busy, despite being quite small. Also, no temperature control in the showers (it was a hot day yet the showers were still hot)

Anbefal til venner Besøg igen

Fra bestyreren: We are sorry you will not be coming to us again. We are in a beautiful part of the country.

Sorry you had to queue for the loos, there are actually five toilets, which is more than we are required to have for a site our size. This is usually enough for the amount of guests on site. The majority of our visitors come with a caravan or motorhome with their own toilet facilities.

The main showers do have a set temperature, we do have a shower in each of the ladies and gents toilets which can be turned to a colder setting.

All in all we would definitely recommend and definitely stay again.

Syntes om Caroline was lovely and very helpful. Facilities were amazing, toilets and showers were clean and well maintained.
My daughter Lacey (12) and son Jaxon (8) were very gutted they didnt get to say bye and thankyou to Caroline, Andy & Fleur.

Syntes ikke om Only thing I will say is ground was very rocky and uneven but we managed as you do.

Fra bestyreren: We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay with us, and loved our facilites. Our toilet block is new, only a year old and is easy to keep clean.

I am so sorry I missed you all when you left, you will have to come again :)

Thank you for letting me know about the rocks, we will check out the area where you were and clear any rocks.

Look forward to seeing you all again soon.

Glad you had fun with the treasure trail, they are available all around the UK, you can find more on the treasure trails website.

We do try and keep on top of the cleaning in our toilet and shower block, the block is new so is easy to keep clean.

Fra bestyreren: Thank you for your review.

We are sorry that the road noise caused you a bit of a problem, it is only a C road but can be busy during the day.

Unfortunately all our pitches away from the road were already booked. It is always a good idea not to make a late booking during the school holidays, the best pitches are always booked a while in advance.

Lovely friendly site.

Syntes om Clean and well maintained facilities. Lovely friendly people onsite. Nice area to explore and site is knowledgeable on the local area. Peaceful and lovely views.

Syntes ikke om Small amount of noise from the road but this was expected so not really a dislike just something to be aware of if.

Anbefal til venner Besøg igen

Fra bestyreren: We are really pleased you enjoyed your stay with us.
We try and keep our facilities nice and clean, this is a lot easier now with our lovely new toilet block.
There are lots of great places to visit and some not very well known.
And yes, we do have some great views across the downs.

The road can be a little noisy at this time of the year with a few tractors and farm vehicles going by.

We look forward to seeing you all again soon.

We are in a great spot for dog walking, lot's of countyside walks.

The road can be a little noisy during the day but is quite after the rush hour traffic has subsided.

Look forward to seeing you again soon.

Lokale seværdigheder

If you have giggling kids along with you – and even if you don’t – a trip to the well-endowed and world-famed Cerne Abbas Giant is most visitors’ first stop, if only to buy a postcard (it’s been noted that postcards of the Giant are the only images of a naked man that can be sent via the Post Office). The man himself is now tended by the National Trust, which has a waymarked circular trail around the site from Cerne Abbas village. Dorchester is an excellent early stop for urbanites and heritage-heads: here you’ll find history-dedicated days out as varied as the Dinosaur Museum, Dorchester Museum, Teddy Bear Museum, Tutankhamen Exhibition and the Roman Amphitheatre; take the Durnovaria Town Walk for an outdoorsy overview of the city’s main sights. Thomas Hardy’s Cottage is at Dorchester too and the literary can book into their schedule the Thomas Hardy Trail, a six-mile circular walk within the Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Elsewhere around the area, take the enormous amount of things to see and do in your stride: from castles to dinosaurs, theme parks to heritage railways and historic houses to tank museums, the coast to countryside have whopping opps for days out (and in; dash to Dorchester’s West Dorset Leisure Centre on a rainy day when the kids need to let off steam). Historic houses and gardens like Kingston Lacy, Athelhampton House and Minterne House and Gardens should suit the sedately inclined, while the less sedate (hello kids) will no doubt prefer chattering at the likes of Monkey World in Wareham, Adventure Wonderland at Christchurch or Sea Life near Weymouth. Both sorts should have a tanking good time at Bovington’s Tank Museum, the second biggest collection of armoured vehicles on the planet. Head for the coast, half an hour's drive away, to fossil hunt or take a guided fossil tour at Lyme Regis or Charmouth; soak up sun and sights at seaside towns such as Weymouth, Swanage and Christchurch; float on a boat to the Channel Islands or potter around glorious Poole Harbour and epically beaut Brownsea Island, also managed by the National Trust. The award-winning Swanage Railway is a gently relaxed way to see some of the sights of Dorset (including Famous Five inspiration Corfe Castle) and holds regular events including driving experiences and special days for children.
