Villages & Resorts in Dorset in general

My Fiancé and myself regularly go on camping holidays in the UK, and as normal my Fiancé decided to take his son away in August. Unfortunately due to a bit of a mix up (no you cant use Tesco vouchers to book camping holidays at Haven), we had left things a bit late to book think it was the end of June. Looking around at various holiday parks on the internet, we came across Parkdean Holidays mmmmm now this looks promising we agreed, seeming to specialise in parks in Devon, Cornwall, Dorset, Norfolk, Scotland and Wales. Catering for those wishing to stay in a static caravan, or those wanting to stay in tents or caravans on pitches either with or with electric ...  Read the complete review

-Introduction- The Purbeck coast, runs from Lulworth to Swanage and Studland. It is well renowned for being one of the most versatile and active coastlines in the Britain and even the world. It is home to some of the most spectacular coastal landforms and anywhere and is generally very picturesque. It is somewhere that is quite local to me and I have recently visited the area on a geography field trip with the school. I do feel that it somewhere that pretty much any type of tourist will enjoy, for one reason or another. I will say this now so that you know to expect it, but there will be numerous geographical references, that I will make sure ...  Read the complete review

Bournemouth is one of the favourite places I go to on Sundays. I live in Salisbury & its £5.75 (£4.50 OAP) to hop on a Wilts & Dorset bus to get to Bournemouth Triangle, which is 1 hr?s drive away by car. Its seven long sandy beaches, pier & shops are well worth visiting. There is also The Winter Gardens Park which hosted the Labour Conference this year. It has a crazy golf area with windmills & ponds, painting exhibitions & a band-stand where various bands play during the summer. There is a little stream running through the centre of the park, here on the lawns, people usually laze in deckchairs while watching the world go by. You can feed squirrels here for 10p ...  Read the complete review

If Kent is the garden of England, then Dorset is the ornamental birdbath in the centre! This county has so much to tell, but I will merely get a chance to give you a summary of her beauty and mystique. A county famous for many things, but visited by so few. A good thing in its way, as the roads of Dorset are so narrow in places, you can only get one car at a time down them. Here is a brief episode taken from a journey I made last Sunday. As we pulled into the car park, a well-sunned local handed me the parking voucher. “tha dl be £3 sah” A hefty fee for parking, I thought, but on closer inspection it could be ...  Read the complete review

UPDATED.....This village of Wareham is beautifully nestled in the shadow of the Purbeck hills in Dorset. Situated from the east about 10 miles from Poole on the A351 and from the west about 15 miles on the A352 from Dorchester. It’s a very rural village and is very well known for its old buildings with history that dates back to the Iron Age. It was a port in those times and in 876 the town, as a result of being captured by the Danes had high ‘walls’ built all around it, to defend it. Most visitors enter Wareham from the East and as you drive onto the North Causeway you cross the River Piddle (hysterical to my daughter when we ...  Read the complete review
