What customers say
A very clean, quiet, and well-maintained campsite with spacious pitches and excellent washrooms. Guests praised the friendly staff, peaceful vibe, and good location for exploring Poole. Some noted occasional Wi-Fi issues and wished for more on-site walking trails. Highly recommended for a relaxing adult getaway.

Nothing…
Power optional cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite
Liked Nothing
Disliked The pitch we wee given was to small , no space for our car, the pitch next door had a van which was 300 mm from our van making it impossible to fill water and empty waste water.. The service pitch which we didn’t ask for constantly had a bad odour from the drains. The grass area for the awning was covered with brambles which I had to clear before with pitched our awning. Left early

Liked An unbelievably clean site. Never once saw a cleaner but the shower/toilet was immaculate 24/7. The pitches are huge, the views are great (choose pitch 1-6 for the best views). It’s quiet, green, well maintained.

Power optional cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite
Liked Amazingly peaceful, well equipped and friendly site. We stayed with water & hook up and the pitch was perfect with a good amount of space. The owners were fantastically friendly and the facilities are immaculate. Great wander round with the dog in the evening and a fab view from the pitch - brilliant, can't wait to stay again!

Power optional cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite
Liked Quiet site with clean facilities. Owners put us near to the toilets as my wife is in a wheelchair - so that was very thoughtful.
The lady on site was very helpful and friendly. Very handy for Poole. Small dog walk on site but good bridleway nearby.
Disliked This site could be really excellent - it's just a little rough round the edges.

Great little campsite when you like peace and quiet.
Big Field power optional grass campsite
Liked The peace and quiet and the clean facilities. Showers were very good. The lady in reception was also very friendly. Wifi was very good.
Disliked Nothing really. There wasn't much opportunity for an evening walk but so be it. Perhaps 5 pounds extra for hook up is a bit much?
