Perfect for a ferry

The wardens worked very hard on this site especially as it was full every day of our stay. The site was a credit to them. They facilties were always clean and so was the site. Not a site I would use for a holiday though. It was mostly one nighters who used it to catch early ferries the following day. Most morning were were disturbed about 5.30 /6am with people packing up and going to catch their ferry. We had very little choice of a pitch as it was full. We picked hard standing over the grassed area. The grass area had very little space and the vans looked hemmed in. Could I suggest that people who use the site for one night to catch ferries be in a specific area, it would be more restful to people like us using the site for a holiday

A great stay

I was only here as my Mun & Dad live in Bournemouth (only 25 mins drive) & I was testing all my bits & pieces for the family holiday in Italy. But was pleasantly surprised, I dont know why as you know what your getting with the CMC club site but this that one step up!!. Couple of thing to note is that you pretty much need to drive for anything & the road that links to this site is a 50 mph one so care is needed.The wifi is ok, plenty of access points so no problem getting on but to slow to work from there (video & steaming not possible) . Also the vodaphone signal drops to 3g.

Great site

We have just returned from spending 14 nights on this site and cannot recommend it enough. The wardens are friendly and helpful and keep the facilities spotless. A lovely bonus are the delicious cakes and scones baked daily by the warden. We will return.

Great memories, great people!

My family and I returned yesterday from a fantastic week stay at Hunters Moon. We were made to feel very welcome by the staff and the residents staying on the site, who seemed to take a shine to our 2 year old daughter! The site itself was very well maintained every day. The facilities were spotless; from the shower rooms and toilets to the baby bathroom and laundry room. Help was on hand if we needed it from the staff. The scones, cream and jam were delicious from the onsite shop! The location was great and we were able to head down to Studland. I'm still reeling from the £27 paid for three fish and chips by the beach. We would have been quite happy with everything going in some paper 'old school';as per a normal beach front fish & chips shop. Be prepared to pay £3 for a vanilla ice cream cone and flake if you make your way to or from Studland. What happend to Mr Whippy's 99p cones? All in all we didn't want to leave and we will certainly return to Hunters Moon in the future as it really was a great stay and thank you to those we got to know during our stay!

Peace and quiet

Have just spent a week at this lovely site set in the Purbeck Hills. The site is immaculate and the wardens work very hard keeping grass and bushes trimmed back for comfort. The toilet blocks are very well kept and spotless. There were lots of dogs on site with very responsible owners, who always kept their dogs on leads. The site is in a good area for cycling and a couple of miles into the town of Wareham, with a couple of small supermarkets, fish and chips shops and very popular pub on the river Frome. The river gives pleasure to many kayakers, boat cruises and river walks. There are many small shops in Wareham High Street to explore and the main traffic is directed away on a bypass. The "Breezer" bus can be picked up by the train station and you can travel to Swanage and Poole and enjoy one of the scenic routes of the Purbeck Hills and countryside. The scones made by the wardens on site are delicious. We will be back!

An enjoyable stay

What a great site this is but beware you may put on weight as one of the wardens makes very tasty scones and cakes every day! The site was tidy, clean and everything you expect a CC site to be, a little bit of road noise and we were practically next to the road but it didn't spoil our enjoyment. A wonderful dog walk (we have three Dalmatians) and the bonus was the gate directly onto the forest. Good place to stay for all the local attractions Dorset has to offer. We have been caravanners for years but had decided to hire a motor home to see how we liked it, the cake making warden was most helpful in explaining where to park in Wareham which was brilliant, also told us about the quay which has two pubs and an Italian. We went to The Granary and sat outside with our dogs although they would have been allowed in the bar area, if you go try the fish and chips the best outside of Padstow we have experienced. We shall definitly go back but probably in our caravan.

Relaxed weekend away

We arrived at Hunters Moon late Friday afternoon. Staff were absolutely delightful throughout the weekend. The site was beautifully maintained, shower block & facilities spotless. Pitches nice and spacious. The site is easy to find and perfectly placed to visit many of the surrounding places of interest. Wareham Quay market was handy to visit on Saturday morning, fresh crab & pastries for later. Corfe Castle just a 15 min drive at most and worth the visit for the lovely walks. Kimmeridge bay has lovely views but next time must check tide tables so we can make the most of fossil hunting possibilities. The site it self has handy dog walks, we would definitely visit again. Thanks again to the staff that make these weekends as pleasant as they are.

Second Visit to Hunters Moon.

Just arrived back from a nine night stay, wish we had been there for a month! Love this site, the area is great for touring Dorset. We went as far as Lymington and Beer in Devon on this visit. What a stunning area of the south coast! The site is spotless, clan and tidy and the facilities spot on. Showers work great and there are separate private sinks too. The shower blocks are kept to a terrific standard of cleanliness! There is a small shop inside reception selling a few basics if needed. Staff are friendly and helpful. The site is situated in Wareham Forest and it is so peaceful and quiet. The weather was a bit hit and miss during our stay but that did not spoil our stay, still got out every morning and stayed out till dusk. My only gripe, and this is the people staying on site at fault and not the site itself is the responsible dog owners letting their dogs fowl around the site, I saw this happen frequently. Okay the do pick it up, but I do think this should not happen. Maybe a sign or a leaflet handed out with the welcome pack giving strong rules of the near by dog walk area? Also they should be on a lead at all times, saw this rule broken too.........Might add I have no objections to dogs in the slightest, we sometimes take our daughters dog on holidays with us.....I just think owners should be more responsible! All in all first class stay and first class location for touring Dorset....we will return!

Wet weekend

We stayed over the Easter weekend which was wet. Very wet. This meant that we couldn't enjoy the site to its full potential. Reception was warm and friendly and the staff were constantly in evidence keeping everything clean and tidy. The toilet blocks were kept spotless. Dog walking locally was impossible due to water-logging and surface water but the beaches at Swanage, Studland, Knoll Beach, and Shell Baymade for great walking. The only gripe was the wifi was terrible and reminiscent of dial-up for those that can remember it. However, I suppose if it is pouring down everyone is in their van trying to get online at the same time so contention becomes a problem. Maybe it will be better when the weather improves. I look forward to returning in better weather

week away

We have just come back from 4 nights at this site. The staff were so friendly and helpfull. Facilities were always clean and nicely presented. The site itself was very tidy and spacious. Although we had no children i feel that this site is a bit child limited. No pubs local that will allow them inside. You have to drive for that.
