Hunters Moon

Just returned from a week at Hunters Moon, our first visit to this site. The Good Points - easy to find, no trouble booking in, friendly wardens, clean toilets/showers with plenty of hot water, well maintained pitches. Easy access into Wareham and the local area. Nice walk to the Silent Woman pub where we had a lovely meal. Now for the not so good points from our point of view - not the sites fault - but inconsiderate dog owners who dont think they have to pick up after their dogs in the dog walk. They should be shamed and if identified, asked to immediately leave the site. Our premium priced serviced pitch was one row back facing the road. I had phoned the site beforehand who confirmed road noise could be heard and it was a busy fast road being the main Bere Regis to Wareham Road, but I have to say I was not expecting the level of noise from early morning to evening. We could hear it from inside the van first thing in the morning, and was also very aware of it when sitting outside the van in the afternoon/early evening. I would not book a serviced pitch here again due to this. Secondly, we arrived to the last serviced pitch available and having followed the instruction and one way system its location was impossible and too tight to reverse our twin axle on (not everyone has the benefit of a motor mover!). We ended up having to unhitch the van and use the wardens and a couple of passer-bys to help us push and turn the van onto the pitch. With a bit of foresight it would have been helpful for the wardens to have lifted the no-entry barrier by the pitch and allowed us to drive up the wrong way a short distance which would have given us a correct angle to reverse on. The pitches that were easy to access were taken up with single vans and campervans - I know you cannot reserve pitches, but knowing a large twin axle was arriving, it would have been appreciated if some consideration had been given to holding a more accessible pitch. Finally the site was full and most mornings and early evenings there was a queue in the ladies for showers (this was mainly due to mums showering children). Would we return to this site? Yes, but not onto a serviced pitch and had this not been our experience I would have given 4 stars for overall rating and possibly five for piece and quiet.
