Hi all and thankyou for your help.

Im looking to take my family away in october half term which does run into november. There will be me and the wife a 7 and 4 yr old plus our 3 dogs. Ideally hampshire or dorset coast would be great. Site would ideally have showers toilets and ehu. I really would like an all grass pitch.

This will be our first trip out in our caravan.

Thankyou

Don't know whether I'd risk all grass in late October to be honest - as its your first trip you want it to be trouble free. Wet/muddy pitch would be enough to spoil my holiday!

We lived in Dorset and there are some lovely areas. We especially like the Purbecks - simply beautiful and lots to do.
It's also our first year Caravanning. We've recently been to Haycraft at Swanage, which is a CC club site. I've left a review.
Also been to Wood Farm at Charmouth.

Places to visit include: Moors Valley near Ringwood - fantastic day out for the kids, with a brilliant Play trail in the forest.
Kimmeridge - brilliant rock pooling
Charmouth - Fossil Hunting on the beach.

Hope you find somewhere nice on our doorstep and let us know where you end up.

ST leonards farm in bournemouth is lovely, clean and a nice little park for the children, only 10 mins from the beach, 5 mins from a aldi, sainsburys, halfords, mcdonalds, and a pub! We have stayed here twice and each time been happy!

If you want a bus mans holiday try Norden Farm at Corfe Castle. We have just left the site. An added bonus for you is they have doggy showers.
