Hyde Camping

Where to start with the attractions around here? Perhaps it’s best to get your bearings by heading out on foot to stretch your legs on the walking and bike trails of Wareham Forest or the paths of Clouds Hill National Trust estate (both five minutes’ drive). Alternatively perhaps you’d like to see the scenery from above on a flight from Dorset Gliding Club (five minutes), or sit back and relax while riding on the Swanage Railway (15 minutes)? Sticking with the outdoor activities, a golf course and clay pigeon shooting are both five minutes’ drive away, and there are plenty of watersports options down at Lulworth Cove (20 minutes), including canoe or paddleboard trips around Durdle Door. For other days out, the highly kid-friendly attractions of Monkey World (five minutes) and The Tank Museum (10 minutes) are usually good bets for a family day out, as is the chance to scramble about playing at being a knight at Corfe Castle (15 minutes). For something a little more sedate, try Sculpture By The Lakes (10 minutes).
