Inspector comments
"Elite touring park with superb glamping and excellent customer care."
Overview
Year-on-year improvements are made by the passionate, hands-on owners at South Lytchett in order to exceed guest expectations. There's a very popular café, the Manor's Tap airstream bar with alfresco seating, six glamping pods, hardstanding pitches, and posh mobile toilet units in the touring and camping fields. Situated in the grounds of a historic manor house, the site has modern facilities that are spotless and well maintained. There’s a TV hook-up on every pitch and free WiFi across the park. A warm and friendly welcome awaits at this lovely site which is well located for visiting Poole and Bournemouth; the Jurassic X53 bus route (Exeter to Poole) has a stop just outside the park. Four stylishly furnished and well-equipped Romany caravans, replete with double bed and two singles plus kitchen and fridge, are available for hire. There are also seven top-notch shepherd's huts with luxury interiors and underfloor heating, 5 bell tents, and eight Mongolian Yurts each finished to a different colour scheme and named after the birth signs.

About the area
Dorset is made up of rugged coastlines, high chalk downlands and a chain of picturesque villages and seaside towns that make up Britain’s Jurassic Coast, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, noted for its layers of shale and numerous fossils embedded in the rock. Hidden gems of Dorset can be found down winding, country lanes that lead to snug villages hidden from view.
