Sandyholme is a great place for a camping holiday in Dorset. The small, friendly park has a beautiful location surrounded by nature reserves, countryside, rivers and walking trails. The park is perfect for families and couples to enjoy a camping holiday, using the park as a base from which to explore the Jurassic Coast, which is just 5 miles from the park.
There are a range of pitches to choose from with or without electric hook-up and a spacious non-electric meadow accommodating up to 80 tents and a further smaller field (Silver Acres), that is open in the summer. The toilet and shower block is free to use and has excellent facilities, with hot showers, hairdryers, toilets, a laundry room (charges apply), visitor information, washing up sinks and a freezer for ice blocks.

The park is a haven for nature and a multiple winner of the David Bellamy Conservation Gold Award for our work with nature and the environment. There is a wildlife lake on park with a range of ducks and mallards and there is an array of wildlife elsewhere around the park including woodpeckers, bees and butterflies. Walk down through the meadow and you will reach the Tadnoll Brook River and a small lake with dragonflies. At dusk and dawn, this is a popular place for deer.
Dogs are welcome with all camping bookings (max of 2) and prices vary per night depending upon the time of year. Please keep dogs on leads at all times and dogs must not be left unattended at any time. There are footpaths nearby for dog walking, as well as the meadow on the park.
There is a park reception with a small shop selection including ice creams and drinks and there is a small co-op store at a nearby village, just 1 mile from the park and larger supermarkets in Dorchester. The park also has a playing field with football goals and a children’s play area and there is a Soft Play nearby at the village of Owermoigne.
Nearby, you will find the Mill House Cider Museum and some of the biggest and best attractions in Dorset like Monkey World, The Tank Museum and Sculpture on the Lakes. This is a great location for a walking holiday with plenty of footpaths and lanes criss-crossing the Dorset countryside around the park, including walks around Tadnoll Nature Reserve, which is awash with a carpet of purple flowers in the summer. At the coast there are dramatic walks with spectacular views and we particularly recommend walking from Ringstead Bay to White Nothe and between Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door.
