Why stay here ...

Charles and Judy Norman welcome visitors to their CL at Winterborne Monkton set in the heart of a Victorian hamlet consisting of a working farm, cottages and a church. The site is close to the A354 with good access along a lane with passing places. Motorhomes have the option of using two hard standing areas over the winter. The quarter acre plot is level and well maintained with lawned pitches, electric hook ups, free high speed wi-fi and TV leads. Excellent shower and toilet facilities, with disabled access, are situated in a stone building opposite the site entrance. A wooden chalet contains essential information for new visitors. Bus stops for regular services to Weymouth/Dorchester are an easy 10 minute walk from the village, and our location allows good accessibility to all parts of Dorset.

Unspoilt farmland extends beyond the site, along the South Winterborne valley and up to the ramparts of Maiden Castle. This huge and ancient monument can be reached on foot from the village and is especially popular for its circular walks and panoramic views. Bird watchers and nature lovers will find a good variety of wildlife around the site.

In Winterborne Monkton, visitors can combine the convenience of being close to Dorchester, the historic county town, with the experience of staying in a rural location of outstanding natural beauty.
