This has to be the best ever CL

Poole Farm
My wife and I have been caravanning for the best part of 30 years now and have visited numerous CLs in that time. We have enjoyed being at every single one of them as they have all had something that made them good. This CL is bar far the best, they have thought of everything. Greeted by a warm welcome and an offer of a drink, shown around the facilities, the shower room, the separate toilet, the dog shower, washroom, small shop for basic food items, home made meals in the freezer, the list goes on. The pitches themselves are again perfect and you can have your meals delivered to yours. Breakfast was lovely as was Sunday dinner. The homemade jam was also very good. Homemade pizzas tonight we're again delivered hot to our van and went down really well. Our dogs enjoyed the dog walk and had a good run around, they even were given a welcome treat on arrival. Thank you for a lovely 5 days, your CL is brilliant, made perfect by your hospitality, home cooking and attention to every detail. Mark & Dawn

Fabulous Cl site

Poole Farm
This is far beyond a super site from arriving and being greeted either by Lou or greg with a tea or coffee and biscuits for our 2 dogs Daisy & Dottie to leaving these wonderful people cannot do more for you . The site and facilities are kept immaculate and pristine, we’ve been going for 4 years and this is far beyond the best site we go on . Lou is a fabulous cook there’s a full menu if you want to book a meal and her Sunday lunches are highly recommendable, plus full English to set you up for the day and all off these are delivered to you steaming hot . Also you get complementary cream tea where again scones are homemade and very delicious. Feel sad when leaving this idilic caravan site it’s amazing and our girlies 🐾🐾 get very spoilt and loved to 😍

Wonderful site

Poole Farm
We stayed at Poole Farm for 2 nights this week. It is the best CL we have ever stayed at, with the warmest welcome and immaculate facilities. The site is very peaceful and it is the perfect place to relax. We bought some of Lou's homemade jam, it is absolutely delicious, as was the cream tea we had in the motorhome. We didn't have any of the home cooked meals this time, but we certainly will when we visit again.

Our second visit, but it won’t be our last.

Poole Farm
A lovely, adults only site, a warm welcome and generous, fully serviced, hardstanding pitches. It has a nice, secure dog field, which for us is a must. Clean and comfortable shower and wc, and a doggy wash facility. Make sure to sample Louise’s meals, they are delicious.
