About Moonacre Campsite

Tucked into a secluded valley between Poole and Blandford Forum, Moonacre Campsite offers a magical woodland escape that regularly draws wildlife—deer, rabbits and pheasants rustle through the trees, while rare red squirrels and wading birds can be spotted on nearby Brownsea Island. Misty mornings reveal peacocks and bunnies on dewdropped lawns, creating an enchanting backdrop for campers seeking proper peace and quiet.

This tiny, fenced site welcomes tents on non-electric grass pitches across uneven, wild terrain. Facilities cover the essentials—showers, toilets, water points and charging stations—while campfires and barbecues add to the remote, back-to-basics atmosphere. Motorcycles and commercial vehicles are permitted, though dogs are not. The helpful staff are known for going above and beyond to ensure a memorable stay.

Sturminster Marshall village, five minutes' drive, provides supermarkets and a golf course. The A31 and A350 keep the site accessible without sacrificing its wonderfully wild, woodland character.

Such a beautiful place. Went camping and the field was secluded, surrounded by trees and pine forest. Great views all around. Very peaceful quiet and well maintained. Not too many camping pitches. There is a nice covered area with seats and also a fridge, plus place to burn open fires. Nice powerful shower and clean toilets. Owners are really friendly and helpful, will definitely go back.
