About Freshwater Beach Holiday Park

A great spot for some family fun with day and evening entertainment to keep boredom at bay. Guests have access to the site's own private beach, perfect for making sand castles, splashing in the sea and soaking up the sun! Tents, campervans, trailer tents, motorhomes and caravans (up to 7m x 4.5m) are welcome on the site's range of grass pitches. Each comes with a 16 amp electric hook up, simply choose between the Main Field which is closer to the sea and facilities, or the Top Field which is set closer to the road but often less crowded in the busier periods. Campervans, motorhomes and caravans (including twin axle) can also opt for a fully serviced hardstanding pitch. These include your own 16 amp electric, water and grey waste hook up. Free access to the pools and evening entertainment is also included in your stay! The 'Rolling Stones bar and restaurant' is great for nights when you don't fancy cooking or just want to watch some live sport! Daytime entertainment and evening shows are perfect for keeping the little ones entertained too. Set along the Jurassic Coast, the site is perfectly located for exploring this dramatic coastline with Lyme Regis only 20 minutes away! Explore the South West Coast Path and the surrounding Dorset countryside. However, it is no surprise that guests don't seem to stray too far with the excellent onsite facilities on offer. There are three swimming pools, a bowling alley, a games room and water sports. For adults in need of some peace and quiet, there is also a gym, sauna and golf course just next door! No need to book a dog sitter, this site caters for the whole family! There is even an enclosed dog exercise area to let them run around, also dogs are allowed in most buildings onsite. If you want to cook up a BBQ, you can pick up some tasty ingredients from the onsite shop. Please just ensure BBQs are raised from the ground (slabs can be provided for disposable BBQs). Fire pits and burners are not permitted.

Freshwater Beach Holiday Park is open from 14/03 to 08/11.

Motorhome - Fully Serviced Hardstanding PitchesOct 2024

Lovely site, big pitches, could see the sea from our pitch. Great indoor and outdoor pool, have to book the pool at the weekends as its open to the public. Toilets near reception were lovely and great if you had kids as some cubicles had two toilets in. The toilets at the far end of the park needed upgrading, the floor behind the toilets were not clean, and the shower walls were stained and they never got cleaned on Sunday. Staff were helpful, and the bar was good. Spar shop was well stocked. Overall a lovely place, very well kept, and a great location.
