Fabulous Find

First time visiting with friends … it was everything and more that you would want for an enjoyable peaceful stay. We stayed 6 nights and were the only occupants … our hosts Dory and Steve were very welcoming and made our stay special … the peace and tranquillity together with the wild life the lake and the surrounding area was just perfect … Will certainly visit again thank you … highly recommended ...

Fantastic Site

The welcome we received from Dory & Steve (kids & dog as well!!) was excellent. The site is great, very peaceful, level, and ideally situated for visits to Poole, Bournemouth and all parts of Dorset generally. We would recommend this site to all and will definitely be returning. Many thanks to Dory & Steve for your hospitality. PS. Contrary to the site listing on the CaMC website Dorset Springs does have electric hook ups!

Excellent stay

We booked for 3 nights (and stayed for 5) in early September. We arrived quite frazzled after a very busy and stressful time (and not a very easy journey down the A350) but quickly started to unwind in the surroundings and with a warm and caring welcome from Dory. Green pastures and still waters do help to restore the soul! And we were able to catch the express bus from Sturminster Marshall to Poole bus station and explore both the town and quayside - with a ferry ride to Brownsea Island. Lovely! The express bus also goes to Blandford Forum which we enjoyed on market day. And there's an excellent pub in Sturminster Marshall serving very good food. Looking forward to going to Dorset Springs again.It was hard to leave...Thank you, Dory and Steve.

Cracking CL

We used this CL when returning from France. Booked a few months in advance explaining that we arrived at Poole at 9:45 at night and it would be after 10:00 before we arrived, Emailed the day before arrival to confirm everything and got a reply shortly after with number for the entrance gate. Steve explained the site was full and would we be considerate of other residents. It was well after 11:00 by the time we arrived but we never had any problems, and as far as I know we did not cause any inconvenience to other residents. We met Steve the next morning he pointed us in the direction of a local cafe for breakfast. We only stayed the one night and left after breakfast. I would certainly use the site again if in the area and would have no hesitation in recommending it to anyone arriving on the ferry late at night and looking for somewhere for an overnighter.

One of the best CLs we have ever stayed on.

We found this site on-line when searching for a CL near Wimborne. It is one of the best CLs that we have stayed on over 40 years of caravanning. We had a very warm and friendly welcome from the owners and were told to enjoy our stay and make full use of this very large property. There are actually two separate CLs in the parkland. One is alongside the larger of the 2 fishing lakes – ideal for fishermen – but has no electric hook-ups. The other, which we stayed on, overlooks a large field with a small flock of sheep and the lakes beyond. This particular CL does have electric hook-ups and there is also a toilet. A small shower block with wet rooms is under construction and will be in use for next season. The owners are very enthusiastic about developing their site for the benefit of caravanners , and have some ambitious plans for the future. Considering that they have established such a good site in less than 2 years, we look forward to seeing what they will accomplish in the future.

No need to go anywhere else.

Came upon this lovely cl as wanted to be near Poole but in the peace and quiet. Well this cl certainly didn’t disappoint. Only a short distance from village easily walking distance. The setting was amazing overlooking the lakes with the swans and Cynets stunning. The owners were so welcoming and friendly we were booked for two nights but ended up staying four night. Once you have discovered Dorset springs you won’t stay anywhere else near Poole.
