St Leonards Farm Caravan and Camping Park Reviews

Excellent stay

Checked in no problem. The site was very quiet during our stay. The soft play and outdoor play area were great for the kids whilst we unpacked/packed etc. Would have been nice to have been allowed a campfire, but it wasn't a deal breaker. The pitches are quite close together so maybe this is part of the reason.

Lovely site

Nice site, good location and ample size plot for my large tent. The soft play barn and park area were a hit with my 3 young children (9,7 and 3).

Lovely stay

Great campsite, facilities were clean and good proximity to fantastic places to visit.

Very good apart from no hot water

Very good, no hot water on the second day,

Weekend stay

Excellent location and a lovely flat pitch. Would have liked a few more water points. A shame the water boiler broke and there was no hot water to shower and wash dishes- the walk to the other block was quite a distance and only half a dozen cubicles - so a bit of a wait. We were informed and appreciated that there was nothing else that could be done. It would be nice if Wi-Fi could be provided, even if there was a small fee. Overall a good stay.

Site's response

Thank you for your review and fair comments, Ray. We are glad you had a good overall stay and apologies again for the lack of hot water in the shower block, as you can appreciate these things are out of our hands when they decide to pack up on the weekends. Unfortunately, the control panel blew and new parts were required. Not easy to find on short notice. We hope it didn't spoil your stay too much and hope to see you back again at St Leonards Farm Park.

Visit with friends

Good site. I think some hard standing pitches in the more open areas would be good.

Nice site

Had 7 nights at St Leonard's. We found the site to be well set out, with plenty of space on the pitches. The toilet blocks were nice and clean, the only issue we found was that the showers we were one of those push buttons that turned off after a few seconds, but we still managed to shower ok. We had a lot of rain during our stay and was quite impressed with how well the ground held up on our grass pitch. The 10amp electric didn't cause us any issues either. Our children loved going to see the animals on site as well. Overall we had a good experience here and would stay again.

No shop on site

This site is lovely and quiet. Soft play and a big park for the children. Toilets and shower are clean. Only thing wrong is that there's is no shop on site and with the one way system, it can be a bit of a nightmare just to get a cold drink ect.

Very nice, clean place to stay

Very clean site, with friendly staff. Showers and toilets are nice and clean. Nice quiet site to stay on. Will stay again.

Not bad

Not much in the sense of service. Warm welcome on arrival. ANPR camera didn't always pick up the van registration. Quite far out the way of things. Sainsbury's is a good 20 minute walk. Lidl is closed for refurb. Speed humps to the site not fun for the van. Peacocks on site are lovely. No closed off area for the dogs to have a run. Kids loved the park Facilities were clean. Showers were hot. Had power cut one night but didn't affect us. Fish and chip van on the Sunday night was lovely. Wouldn't stay again but only due to area as not much around. Locals on horses and carts, holding up the traffic, spoilt it for me.

Easter weekend

Speed bumps certainly slow you down. The hedges are tight if you have a wide van.

Family with young children

I felt that they need stricter rules in bathrooms to help keep them cleaner. Once one person has walked in with shoes, you then have to. Showers were only just powerful enough to wash hair in, which was not ideal with children.

Great site

Great site, we had the field to ourselves most of the time. Showers and toilets were clean but the push button shower could do with updating. Friendly lady at reception. Great site but a shame about the weather!

Brilliant stay

Totally thrilled that we found this site. Was a practice trip for my new puppy so only stayed a couple of days, but defo staying longer next time. Facilities are excellent and all staff are so very friendly and welcoming. I would heartily recommend

Good site in good location

We have recently come back from a three-night stay at this campsite, staying on a good sized, hardstanding electric pitch. Check-in was quick and efficient. All public areas of the site are clean and well-maintained and we felt the site was very secure. The owners were very friendly and helpful (when we couldn't get our vehicle started).The site is in a good location with supermarkets and pubs nearby, and is within easy reach of Wimborne, Bournemouth and Poole. We will use this site again, when visiting family who live locally.

Great stay

Great place. Very friendly and welcoming with very clean facilities.

One night stay

Great greeting. It was Halloween, so the owners created an event for the children, which was nice for the families staying there. Electricity has a small supply of 10 amps, which limited the use of some electrical items. Unfortunately shower power needs updating as the water pressure was very low. Nice big cubicles that included shower, toilet and basin and it was clean. Overall, it was ok.

Good for a stopover

Good for a stopover but site has low amperage - be aware that there is a 10amp max.

Our stay was great

Extremely friendly and accommodating- thank you for the salt! :)

You are very welcome, anytime.

Great campsite, great experience

First time camping as a family, two adults, 3 year old and a 11 year old. Campsite was great, very spacious, with a great kids park in the middle of the campsite. The park has 4 swings, 2 toddler swings, a roundabout and another spinny thing. There are see-saws, slides, a zip line, a climbing frame and a toddler climbing wooden frame with slides and things. Both kids and adults loved it! Soft play is in a barn, so obviously not immaculate but you wouldn't expect it to be anyway. Great fun for both kids. There is seating in there and it's open all day. They've also got a farm that you can freely wander around with pigs, donkeys, sheep, chickens, peacocks, turkeys. All friendly and approached us when we went to them. Again, kids loved that. We had an electric pitch, so no issues there. So much space per pitch as well. The staff were so lovely and if you bumped into them while walking around, they have a chat. Toilet and showers, very clean. Saw cleaners in there multiple times too. Great water pressure too which is always handy. Lots of drinking water points as well. Literally a 10 min walk away is Lidl, Sainsburys, a Beefeater, McDonald's and some smaller shops too. Very handy for first time campers who forget everything. I have nothing bad to say about the campsite, our experience, the staff, the facilities - all of it was amazing. Will be retuning regularly now!

Thank you for your lovely comments, we are so pleased you had such a good experience and look forward to welcoming you all back on park in the near future.

Nice local site

Was a test run for a new tent, the pitches were just big enough for the 7x5m tent. The site was well kept and the staff were really helpful, thank you. For slightly smaller setups, a great place!

Lovely place to stay

Lovely campsite, not too busy, which was a pleasure. Very good price and the staff were friendly and helpful. The only thing that was not as good as it could have been was the toilet and shower block nearest to the tent. No curtain in the shower, which was a nuisance as clothing got wet, the shower was not as warm as it could have been & the block really needs some work done on the overall usability. The existing exit is onto a busy dual carriageway - be aware of the speed so that you have plenty of time to get out.

Lovely, friendly, well maintained and clean farm

Lovely welcome from Caroline, Shawn and Kathy to a spacious, peaceful, well maintained site. Clean and tidy facilities. Great location for Riverside and forest walks, supermarkets and pubs etc.

Brilliant

Lovely friendly park, with good amenities and straight onto the A31 central to all areas. Two supermarkets on your doorstep, a pub and lots of local shops including a garage for fuel. Lovely location for all to enjoy including a good variety of wildlife as you'd expect on a farm.

Our stay

Campsite is clean and tidy, but toilet and shower blocks need updating.
