We stayed at South Lytchett manor site this week. The facilities were first class. The welcome on arrival was so warm it almost melted the snow. There are lots of pros, even a sign reading 'feel free to pick the herbs' from the garden by the reception. The heated toilet / shower blocks were 5 stars, very clean and smelled inviting, with the pipped gentle music to relax you.
At the grey water/ toilet empty point they had a hand sanitizer gel unit for our use.
The buses from outside the site gate every hour to Poole, then onto Bournemouth, and the other way to Swanage and Weymouth, were so easy. Just book for a great stay. We will be booking for another stay soon.

Despite the cold and wet weather we had a good few days visiting Poole and Bournemouth
Nice welcome at the campsite, pitches of good size, well kept site but the only negative was the constant road noise from the A35 ( I don't know if it was because of the Easterly wind) but it was very loud ! The other things were the distance to toilets and the size of the showers, although very clean the actual size made it bit of a challenge to get dressed without getting your clothes wet from the floor and not a very big bench. On one visit it was very cold in the shower block.
The bus service from the site is very good, we travelled to Poole and Bournemouth on what must be one of the best services in a long time, very helpful drivers. We also visited St Peters Finger down the road ( didn't use path from site as very muddy) The food and service was VERY good and the prices were very reasonable

We were at this site last week & loved it! Top notch facilities, helpful staff, great for the dog & despite the very cold conditions we were able to enjoy it all. Being 'seniors' we made full use of the buses that stopped outside the site & visited Poole, Swanage & Weymouth. The pub down the road was good but we thought the meals were a bit overpriced. The craft centre around the corner was very interesting too. We will definitely be back!

We have just returned from our second stay this year at South Lytchett Manor Caravan and Camping Site.
As before, the welcome was very warm and helpful.
The modern toilet & shower facilities were immaculately clean, with loads of free hot water. The piped music in the shower and toilet block is a nice touch.
Free WIFI is a great bonus.
The washing up facilities are excellent and the microwave oven is handy for heating up meals.
Just outside the entrance gate is a bus stop with regular buses in and out of Poole or Swanage.
We thoroughly recommend this site to anyone visiting the area and we will certainly be returning.

It's quite difficult to find a good site that's open until the end of the year for long weekends and without having to travel too far. South Lytchett is a lovely, well kept site that has been recently upgraded and many pitches have hard standings and it's own Electricity, water and tv point. It also has free wi fi but unlike many sites that have it, this is transmitted around the site and available on your pitch. My connection was good but I couldn't say what it would be like on other pitches. Caravan club sites charge a fortune for this facility. The tv signal they provide is excellent so there's no faffing around with aerials. I couldn't fault the toilets but do tend to use our own facilities.
You can walk into Lytchett Minster where there's a good pub, The St Peters Finger that serves good food. The shop is pretty well stocked where you can order papers and a really nicely presented information centre where the owners have taken the time and trouble to make up various information folders. There's even a microwave for anyone to use.
The prices are very reasonable for the time of year but I probably wouldn't pay the mid and high season prices. We prefer to use Cl's in the main season anyway. Overall though a great site and one which we will be returning.

This is our second visit to this site within 6 weeks and we enjoyed ourselves just as much as the first time. Although I could book our pitch on line we are new to caravanning so phoned the site to book. Very friendly and efficient, email received within minutes of phoning outlining our booking.
The site is well maintained and we had a deluxe pitch on hardstanding which included EHU, TV connection and water. Free wifi throughout the site is a nice bonus. The staff work hard to ensure the site is clean and tidy especially during these autumnal months with all the leaves falling. As mentioned by many others the shower block is very clean, warm and has piped music.
We were able to use the dog exercise field and our 6 month old labrador puppy enjoyed freely running around, was kept on a lead of course elsewhere on campsite. The information hut has lots of hints and tips for places to visit to get the most from your visit next to which is the chicken run. Fresh eggs purchased from the site for breakfast, very nice.
We used our car to tour around but there is a bus top right outside the gate. The site is ideally placed and we visited Poole, Corfe Castle, Swanage, Sandbanks and Wimborne during our 5 day visit. We will return next year.

Excellent site in a beautiful part of the country. The facilities are 1st class and pitches are level and of a good size. We had a deluxe pitch which came with it's own picnic table and bench, lighting and dustbin although there are also plenty of bins for recycling items near the amenity blocks. No children with us so can't comment on the playground and we didn't use the laundry but everything looked good. The shop was well stocked with the basics, a small range of accessories and newspapers can be ordered. Some road noise and floodlights from the nearby school playing fields may be a nuisance to some but we didn't find them too bad. Free Wi-fi throughout the park is certainly a big plus. The staff were some of the most friendly and helpful we've come across on sites

This was our first visit loved the location what a beautiful site well maintained and the staff were excellent nothing being too much trouble. Lovely walks to take our dog on. My father-in-law is disabled and this was mentioned when booking we had the first pitch on the site near the facilities (brilliant).
The bus stop right outside the gate great advantage. The pub 10 mins walk excellent food.
Over all one of the best sites we have been to. We will definitely be back.

We have just returned from our very first stay at South Lytchett Manor Caravan and Camping site. We have had a wonderful stay in beautiful surroundings. We were given a warm welcome when we arrived on Friday evening and clearly directed to our pitch. The pitches are a great size and the majority appear to be on gravel, which is a plus. The whole site is impeccably clean and well maintained. We booked our stay following all of the positive reviews on this website and I have to say we were not disappointed at all. We only wish we could have stayed longer. We will definitely book to stay in the new year. As all the other reviews mention we were given a voucher on arrival for a free bottle of wine when ordered with two main meals at the local pub. We decided to take advantage of this offer and we were really pleased we did. The pub St Peter's Finger was a really warm welcoming pub with great food. I would recommend you book a table to ensure you are not disappointed as it was busy. The site has a shop and games room and the toilets and showers were really clean and well cared for. Well done South Lytchett Manor, you really do work hard to provide a fantastic site, which you should be very proud of. Thank you.

Our first visit to this site.
Level hard standing pitches. Water tap right near by. Good TV and phone signal. Nice clean facilities. Shop within reception, but quite sparse at the time of our visit.
Dog friendly pub (St Peters Finger) within walking distance, very nice meals and staff.
There are walks straight from site.
We were on one of the pitches just as you enter the site and there was quite a bit of road noise here.

Obviously at this time of year the site was not at its best but the washroom/toilets etc. Are first class and the pitch (de lux) was a good size with all facilities. There is some road noise and also there is a school nearby and their all weather pitch is the other side of the fence. It is used in the evenings so the noise and floodlights can be a bit intrusive and of course the schoolkids are using it during the day.
The launderette needs tokens from reception and I thought it was expensive at £3. 75 a wash and £2. 40 a dry(40 mins). Excellent pub down the road (more like 15 min walk) and bus stop outside gate.

This is an excellent campsite, I found it for a last minute booking and am glad I did.
Staff were very helpful and friendly, the facilities are excellent, very clean and modern. No children, so cannot comment on the play area but have two big dogs and this is one of the best sites I have visited for dog walking areas on site.
There is a pub 10 minutes walk from the site and a bustop at the entrance to the site; very useful if you have a motorhome.

We stayed for a week at this site as we wanted to visit the south coast and this particular site had such good reviews and we were not disappointed. It was central to all the areas we wanted to visit eg. Poole, Swanage, Bournemouth, Wareham etc. Bus stop just outside the main gates went to all of these places of interest so no need to move the motorhome. We did feel the buses could of run more frequent in September but was obviously not the fault of the campsite.
All staff we came across were very friendly and it was genuine not 'we have to be nice to customers'. We had a very generous pitch, well kept and close to the toilet facilities that were excellent. They were spotlessly clean, warm for the chilly evenings and mornings, and plenty of hot water. The dog walks were very well maintained as well as catering for a field that they could run there little legs off and supplying poo bags! The local pub which was recommended 'St Peters Fingers' allowed dogs in the bar area and the food was excellent. Went there 3 times. All in all an excellent week and would highly recommend this campsite to anyone that was camping in this area.

Lovely site. Staff very helpful and friendly. Extras such as hand cream in shower blocks were a nice touch and exceptionally clean. The whole site was full of lovely flower displays despite it being mid September. We had a 'super pitch', which included our own water, draining, TV point, bench type table and dustbin. This is luxurious camping. Bus stop right outside site. All information we needed, such as Market days, buses, local pubs, were available from the lovely staff. Grass was cut regularly and the staff never too busy to talk (Don't tell the Boss). We have stayed at Club sites around this price, but this was the best. Can't fault it. Keep it up guys. Thanks for a lovely stay.

If you are thinking of staying at a caravan park that is second to none then you must book your holiday here. The site is as near to perfection as you can make it. The site itself is kept to a superb standard, grass kept short. Flowers everywhere, in hanging baskets and even in vases in the shower blocks. The toilets and showers (free) are immaculate and a credit to the cleaners, there are free hair dryers and even complimentary hand and body lotion. I know of no other site that offers this. The site shop has all you need including fresh eggs from their own chickens and newspapers to order. We booked a deluxe pitch and we got just that. Picnic table and bench, electric hook up, tv connection with super signal, free wifi that was faster than my home broadband and even our own bin that was emptied every morning. The owners and staff could not have been more helpful or more friendly, I was particularly impressed by the young lad who seemed to turn his hand to anything. From mowing the grass. To serving in the shop or emptying the bins. His parents can be very proud of him.
I have three dogs and we were very impressed with the dog walk, poo bags were supplied and as far as I could see the dog walkers used this facility, a very large clean safe field where man's best friend can run amok.
I cannot comment on the surrounding area or the attractions as I did not use them, I went for a rest and to chill out in my caravan and this is precisely what I did. I cannot recommend this site highly enough and will be returning often, I have already booked for Christmas and cannot wait.
