We are looking to go camping for a week in Dorset/Devon and wondered if anyone could recommend a site. I need;

Hot showers
Dog friendly
Childrens playground
Small shop on site (not necessary though)
Paths good for scooters/bikes

Other than that just somewhere that is friendly. Any ideas?

Can't do links on iPad yet but this place is the answer.

Norden farm
Corfe castle

We went for half term with family and friends.
A fantastic campsite with all levels of comfort from b&b at the farm house, caravans, electric hook up and tents. Farm shop with oh so fresh farm eggs.
Fram house also has a restaurant serving great Sunday lunch and on the day we left fresh lobster! Top field has a mobile van serving bacon buttes at breakfast and burgers and chips at supper time.
Play ground next to wash up with big windows so you can keep an eye on the dc. very rural(lots if manure) pets area with chickens, ducks, hamsters and emu?
Hot showers and clean with unlimited hot water.no horrid timers or coin ops.

And the best bit a purpose built hot dog shower!
An absolute must if like us you have a spaniel that likes rolling in dead fish.

The site has foot paths and bike tracks to corfe castle only a short walkaway, we stayed in main field, friends in donkey field and top field, all fantastic.

Great beaches a short drive away, stud land bay for sand or rocky coves for fossil hunting.



We had a fantastic time, great place, great people, even when our dog broke free the one and only time we left him, they called us immediately and kept him safe.
