St Leonards Farm Caravan and Camping Park is within 30 minutes of some of Bournemouth's best beaches, and just a few miles from Ringwood and the New Forest. There are grass and hardstanding pitches with and without electric for tents and tourers, as well as fully furnished bell tents and shepherd's huts. A quiet, family run site with modern facilities and a children's play park, football pitch and indoor soft play area.

Great site, friendly approachable staff. Lovely pitches with plenty of space. Facilities clean and great range of visiting food vans and an ice cream van every evening. Great base for exploring the surrounding areas.

A good campsite

First time being on site and we absolutely loved it. My daughter loved the indoor play area and the park. We walked round and saw the animals which was amazing. Really recommend this site.

Really nice campsite. Great park and soft play for the kids. Good clean facilities. Would definitely book again. The only gripe was the showers had poor pressure coupled with push to work is a nightmare when trying to get three kids thought the shower.

We have just come back from staying here, it was a lovely and friendly place, we even added an extra night on our stay. Kids had a blast in the park and play barn, it was clean and tidy and the ice-cream van and pizza truck was lovely and very much enjoyed. Kids also enjoyed going around and looking at the animals there, would definitely stay again and would highly recommend to friends and family.

Comfy site with some compromises

Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass PitchesAug 2023

The bad weather did not stop us enjoying our stay. The site is level and well drained. The showers and toilet were constantly cleaned so that despite the muddy tracks, they remained usable. The location is a weak spot as there is constant road noise. It's a good distance from any attractions. Children are well catered for though, with play areas and animals to amuse them. Visiting food vans are a good idea, with a good selection of choices during the week. Overall, a well managed site. Eating out options are good nearby, as you might expect from the 'edge of town' location. Shopping is easy, but don't expect a rural idyll. For me, it's a trade off.

Family friendly camping

When we arrived we were greeted by friendly helpful staff. There were plenty of things on site to do. If we didn't want to go off-site. The site was lovely and well looked after. Looking around the site I don't think there is a pitch we would not have been happy with.

Good for dog lovers

Good for dog lovers but might not be for those who aren't! We had a great two nights but did leave before the expected end of our stay due to dogs running around. My youngest daughter is afraid of dogs, so we needed to leave ☹️ Great site for families and dog lovers.

Site's response

Thanks for the review. Dogs are not permitted off the lead on the park and we received no comments to this effect while you were on site.

Superb spot and very friendly hosts

We recently stayed here for a gentle getaway with the view to exploring Bournemouth. On arrival, the campsite owner was really helpful and came out to greet us in the pouring rain. She explained exactly where we were and how to get to local amenities. Once we were pitched up, we walked to the local pub, only a ten minute walk from the campsite, where we had a great meal. On Sunday morning, we awoke to the food van preparing super breakfasts for which we indulged in! Following a good shower in the communal blocks, which are clean and more than adequate, we went off to Bournemouth beaches. The campsite has all you need for a quieter camping experience. Pitches are well kept and the electric hook ups are really accessible. Visiting food vans were great - big roasts and paella were super. There is even a visiting mobile bar. The site asks for no loud music and noise after 10.30 and everyone adhered to this, which was bliss. I would definitely book again even if the weather was poor!

Great stay and location

Great place and very welcoming. Loads of local information and location is great to get to all areas. One thing just wished there was a small shop on the location.

Great camping place!

We were very happy with staying at your campsite, thanks for looking after us. You work hard for this camping. Everything we needed was there (shower, toilets etc). We stayed in a tent for 6 days. It is very well located. Superstore is 5 minutes drive. The New Forest is about 10 minutes drive. It is a fantastic place. We went to Swanage for the day, it was absolutely beautiful. Took the steam train and went to Corfe Castle. It was really quiet on the campsite (we are used to packed camping places though). People were friendly and gave us some good tips. Just a nice place to spend your holiday. We will be back! Best regards from the Netherlands.

Highly recommended

Twin Axle Caravan - Non Electric Grass PitchesJun 2023

Good family site with a large playground, inside play area, dog walking area and a football pitch. Good clean facilities. Pitches a bit on the small side. Access roads very narrow. Close to a busy dual carriageway so a lot of traffic noise.

Nice site. Brilliant facilities & good local information available on check in. A little close to the main road is my only comment, but otherwise, a good location to explore Bournemouth & surrounding area.

Single Axle Caravan - Electric Grass PitchesJun 2023

A random pick of site to try our new caravan and towing vehicle. It was a van but that was not allowed to be parked on-site, but was shown somewhere to park it up to be kept safe- so staff were very helpful! Site was lovely and quiet, with all that we needed. The park and indoor play area were great, so as a whole we shall be visiting again!

Long weekend

Great 3 nights here. So close to supermarkets, pubs and takeaways. Approximately 30 minutes to Poole and Bournemouth. A great base. We really liked the park and location.

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).
