About Parley Court Camping

This relaxed camping spot in Christchurch offers a fun and memorable stay for you and the whole family. Set amongst lovely countryside, Bournemouth is right on your doorstep which makes for a perfect day at the seaside. There are back-to-basics tent pitches set on fairly level ground, without electric. Fires on raised fire pits are welcome and you can purchase logs and kindle on site. There are also five pre-pitched tents available for hire, each sleeping up to five people. The campsite is within the grounds of Parley Golf Centre, where you're welcome to practice your golfing skills. It's a "car free" campsite making it a safe place for everyone and plenty of space for children to run free. There is a car park just a few feet away. Please note, there may be some overhead noise from the nearby Bournemouth airport. Dogs are welcome but please keep them on leads and make sure they are under control at all times.

Parley Court Camping is open from 28/06 to 13/08 and 16/08 to 01/09.

Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent PitchesAug 2024

Staff were super helpful and lovely. Close distant to Bournemouth centre. Great fire pits to hire at a great price. Toilets blocked most days. Unless you don't care about noise from closer residents and the airport, then it would suit you. 6:30am and gone 10pm flights ✈️

Could be so much better with a little more effort

Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent PitchesAug 2024

Simply a field adjoining the golf course. Flat and pitch where you like. Cars not allowed on field so have to carry tent and belongings from adjacent car park - quite a distance if at the other side of the field. However, there are a couple of trolleys that you can use, they're free - just don't arrive at the same time as someone else! Facilities are very basic and very dated - 3 showers, gents, ladies and a kitchen/room with two sinks. Toilets were not terrible but not the most sparkling either, ditto the basins. On site 4 days and didn't see them clean or cleaned once. There are quite a few nice "glamping" style bell tents on one side of the field, which seems to be at complete odds with the rest of the facilities. No electric socket anywhere on site - kitchen has 3 double sockets but they've been unhelpfully blanked off. So, nowhere to blow up your air bed or charge your phone. Take a battery or foot powered pump and battery packs for your phone. I had pump that plugged into car cigarette lighter, so that meant carrying them blown up across the field - quite a challenge given it was a windy day. Site is literally next door to Bournemouth airport. Flights start at 6:30 and end around 11'ish. I quite enjoyed seeing them take off but they are loud, so don't expect a lie in if you're not a heavy sleeper. Golf club had a decent bar that serves reasonably priced food. Basic menu - burgers, sarnies, jacket spuds. All this is a shame because the setting is quite nice, it just seems like it could be a lot nicer with a bit more effort and not a lot of expense. Good example would be to fit toilet roll holders to replace the broken ones and fit some shelves near the sinks so that there's somewhere to put your wash bag and hang you're towel. And, definitely, clean more often and much better.

Great place
