Very helpful staff

First time out this year 16th March for 3 day break great location as we love Wareham and Swanage. Back gate leads straight into forest so you can avoid roads to walk or mountain bike. My caravan refused to budge when due to leave because of a problem with the ALCO ATC system the brakes locked. The staff were great. Especially Graham who could see that I was struggling and came out of the office to help. With his help we got started and will definitely return again. Thanks again Brian

Cold Snap Warm Welcome

Recently returned from a week at Hunters Moon. We endured 2 nights of snow during our visit which quickly went. There are numerous places to visit close by, RSPB Arne, Studland Beach is a must, Swanage, Dorchester, Poole & Bournemouth. There are loads of walks from or close to the site but a bit muddy this time of year in the woodland, no problem though with your boots on. Wardens are great, hard working and nothing seems too much trouble.

Winter visit

Good site in foul weather - no waterlogging or vehicle access problems. Disabled facilities very good for wheelchair user. Good access for lovely dog walking in Wareham Forest, with a handy & secure gate from the site onto the adjoining bridleway (although the neighbouring council-run site is a bit of an eyesore when seen from the path). The local heathland soil is sandy and dries fast, so doesn't get too claggy in winter. The view from the top of Woolbury Hillfort was well worth the walk! No TV reception, but our aerial is never very good, and I've never bothered to take advantage of the coax plugin at the hookup, so no complaint. Site was full on arrival (last day of half-term) and felt it, but emptied out rapidly when the kids went back to school. Staff were a bit picky about lining up with the pegs on the pitch, but given how full the site was that was understandable, and again, no complaint. The local pub, the Silent Woman, is a gem - lovely food and friendly hosts (dogs welcome in the bar, but kids not admitted). Good base for exploring East Dorset - we easily covered Dorchester, Weymouth, Swanage, Wareham, Poole and Blandford in four days. The location combines being in the middle of a large forest with ready access to the main through routes to the West & North. We extended our stay, and would happily go back.

Potted music

Good clean CC Site. Usual facilities. Helpful staff. But PLEASE TURN OFF THE GASTLY POTTED RADIO IN THE TOILET BLOCK. I can have it on in my van if I want, but please don't force us all to have to endure it in a public area. I hope this isn't a "new development" across the network.

Huntersmoan

If its a warm welcolm your after i would suggest another site , first thing the warden (she) said was " your early" well yes half an hour but we waited patiently as the other two were there was only three of us ? then it was if you all turn up early they'll be a que in the road we've got a sat nav theres no need to be early and don't park or drive on the grass because if you get stuck we can't help you ?? well actually we don't have a sat nav and if we all turn up at mid day you would still have a que and we had no intention to drive on the grass ?? Anyway we won't be going back, the site it's self is quite noisy because of the main road lots of traffic and HGV's in and out of the quarry . The electric post's could do with some one to maintan them coax cables for the Tv's fall out and power sockets on our pitch were loose . It was only a weeks stay to air out the van for the coming summer . And might i suggest to the club if one of your wardens is so rude and stipulates how one should park the van then they might want to have a walk around their site .

Lovely site to visit the local attractions from

We stayed here as a couple for 2 nights in early February. Cold wet weather was no problem as pitches with gravel style hard standing were readily available. We pitched up on level ground (no levelling ramps needed) with a south facing pitch to enjoy what little available sunshine we could grab! Although tv reception is listed as poor, we had no problem picking up plenty of digital tv and radio shows from our caravans own aerial. If you are struggling there are tv booster points you can plug into onsite with the usual caravan club co-ax style connectors. The generous electricity hook up points meant our caravan was toasty and warm throughout our stay. Toilets and washrooms were immaculate and heated - lovely! Wardens are very helpful and friendly and the whole site is kept to a very high standard. We chose the site for its location - we wanted to cycle to Monkey World and this site is only 6 miles approx. from the attraction along mainly quiet roads. Also the Sika trail is not far from site by bicycle and made for a scenic afternoon ride for me. Both bike rides were affected by the recent heavy rains with puddles galore but Hunters Moon site was as good as unaffected by this - very little standing water on site. We didn't have time to visit but if you know the area you will already know the tank museum is also very close to the site and ideal for a rainy day. So if you are travelling as a couple or as a family this site has a lot to offer. We enjoyed our stay here and would happily revisit in the future. The location is great for the two big local attractions and if you feel up to it cycling to them is better for your health and cycles don't get stuck in traffic jams!

Short Stay

Don't know if good for families as it's just the 2 of us. Wardens vary helpful, they certainly know how to keep a site clean, the facilities were spotless. Nice to have music in the shower block, other sites take note!! Public transport not the best so if sightseeing (and there's lots to see) your own transport would be advisable. Pitch away from the road and it's a nice peaceful site.

Excellent

Very impressed, facilities excellent, clean & tidy, helpful staff. Great location near many attractions, visited RSPB reserve at Arne (free entry with club m/ship), great walks & views, good cafe. Beware Silent Woman pub near site entrance closed Sunday evening, (and also other dates for weddings - so check first) no food on sundays as we also found out at another few pubs in Wareham, eventually had a cheap roast dinner at Red Lion. But the peace & quiet was one of the attractions, so off season have to accept some things are closed !

Bloody good site

It was our first visit to this site and I have to say that for us it was a very pleasant experience, we were met by very friendly staff who could not have been more helpful if they tried. While we have been caravanning for a few years now it is the first time that we have tried a fully serviced pitch within the UK we do use fully serviced pitches when we are abroad in such places as Spain but we have not tried one on our home soil before, I have to say we were pleasantly surprised. The overall area of this campsite and especially the toilet blocks / showers were always kept clean, neat and tidy, We stayed here for a total of five nights mainly to visit family within the area and the local sites, this is definitely a site that we will return to. Note: if by any chance Tim and Denise Colyer read this feedback, Heather and I would like to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the marmalade you left on our caravan step, (Tim and Denise had a slight problem with the motor van step and we were happy to be able to supply a solution of cable ties we then went out for the day and on our return we found a jar of marmalade on our caravan step, they had left the site before we were able to say thank you for such a generous gift, caravanners and motorhome owners are always lovely people)
