Holiday park Cornwall/South Devon/Dorset

Hi all,
I am looking for recommendations for a holiday park in cornwall, south devon or dorset. Lodges/caravans all welcome.
Ideally would like and indoor/outdoor pool and for it to be walkable to facilities (pub/shop/town/beach), so we can go off site, but equally don't have to spend the week getting in and out of the car.

I have an ideal image of something with sea views but realise that may be hard to achieve realistically!

First time we've thought about a holiday park as we normally stay in a cottage in North Devon, but thought our girls (8,6) would like the variety of facilities a holiday park has to offer.

We have so far only really been recommended Rockley Park in Looe, so if anyone has experience of this place that'd be great too.

Thanks in advance.

Our children when they were this age used to really enjoy Wringworthy cottages near Looe. www.wringworthy.co.uk they have a heated swimming pool, farm animals childrens play barn outdoor play area and lots of other child friendly stuff. out of interest, as I know the area around looe pretty well, where is Rockley park because I have never heard of it (and neither has Mr google!) I think you are mixing up a couple of the caravan site chains who have one in looe and one elsewhere?

Pentewan Sands - could not be closer to the beach!

Or have a look at various holiday parks around Hayle, like Riviera Towans, if you want to travel really far west.

Haven in weymouth might work? Lots of activities , lovely pool with outdoor rapids and short walk to a little beach.

Rockley park is in Poole. It has vrilliant watersports vut is on the harvour rather than a proper beach. Ive not been but people like it.

Landal Gwel an Mor has sea views and an indoor pool. It also has an onsite wildlife park where children can feed the animals and get involved in ranger-led activities. It's a short walk from the village of Portreath which has several shops and cafes, and a good clean beach.

Thanks all. Some good suggestions here to start looking at.
Mummymeister, sure you're on commission as you've said the same on all other threads I've looked at, so you must love it!! Thanks for recommendation but we've done lots of farm/cottage stays so looking for a change. Ah, told rockely was in Looe but Poole would actually be better for us so I'll look again.

Krispie we'd love to stay in gwel an mor but sadly too expensive for us.

Will look into the other options, thanks.
