We're booking a four night break end of September. Can anyone suggest any that aren't too shabby, with good swimming pools.
I've looked at so many I've got confused (especially after checking trip advisor - everytime I think I've found the perfect one I open it up to a barrage of complaints!).

Ladram Bay? It was excellent but the pool is due for renewal so it's a bit on the old side- they've done the changing rooms and they were lovely. We were there this summer and got a private rental which was cheaper than the official site.

Will take a look at that one, thank you

I came to say Ladram as well. Nice beach only accessed from the park (although pebbles) Well kept park.

I had a look at ladram but again the tripadvisor reviews were terrible!
We're thinking maybe the Isle of Wight instead

It gets 4.7 out of 5 on tripadvisor. Where are the terrible reviews. One of the reasons we picked it was it had such good feedback.

Does it! Oh for flip sake I'm tying myself in knots looking at them all!

Hang on I'm diving back in for another look there is definitely a reason I discounted it...

Ah! I see! Nothing to do with ratings... and I'm really feeling a bit stupid for saying that on a forum which others will see. Really sorry!

They just didn't have anything available for the dates (within price range at the standard we hoped for).

We went with a private hire and it was ££ cheaper and a lovely caravan. I think it was through Direct Holiday Homes. I hope you find something.

not sure if you've already booked/left but the haven holiday park in poole (rockely) is lovely and has a great indoor and outdoor pool, nice beaches, watersports, and is near lots of lovely dorset attractions (poole quay/farmer palmers/tank museum)
