Shaftesbury Country Touring Park

Liked We had a fantastic stay at Shaftesbury Country Touring Park and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful and well-equipped countryside escape.

From the moment we arrived, the site managers were incredibly friendly, helpful, and full of useful information. It was reassuring to know they were always around and happy to assist with anything we needed.

Our spacious pitch was perfectly located in the meadow, which offered beautiful views and a real sense of tranquility. We were lucky enough to be there during a quiet week, so at times it felt like we had the entire meadow to ourselves — such a treat! Right by our tent, we had access to electric hook-up and a water tap, which made everything super convenient.

A lovely surprise was the little fishing lake at the top of the meadow — a peaceful spot that added even more charm to the site.

The toilet and shower block, while a little tired in appearance, was kept very clean. The showers were always hot, though we did find that having a push-button rather than adjustable controls made them a bit less convenient as it meant you couldn’t choose the temp of your shower — a minor point, if you like your water HOT! There was also a washing machine and tumble dryer available for £5, which was handy.

Onsite, there’s a small petrol station with limited supplies, but it was perfect for grabbing a quick ice cream. And with both a Lidl and Tesco just a five-minute drive away, stocking up on essentials was a breeze.

All in all, a peaceful, friendly, and beautifully located site with great amenities and thoughtful touches. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and wouldn’t hesitate to return!

Liked I really enjoyed staying at this site. The owner was extremely helpful and friendly, which made the experience even better. The site itself is well-maintained, clean, and spacious, with plenty of open areas to relax. The toilet and shower facilities were also clean and perfectly adequate.

It was my children's first camping experience, and they absolutely loved it—lots of sunshine, fresh air, and a very quiet, peaceful atmosphere. I will definitely be returning!
