About Wilksworth Caravan Park

A mile from Wimborne, this family-friendly park makes an excellent base for exploring Dorset's New Forest, nearby beaches, and yes – Monkey World and Peppa Pig World are both within easy reach. On site there's an outdoor pool with splash zone, football pitch, BMX track, and playground to keep younger campers entertained, plus your pitch pass grants access to a sister site 20 minutes away with indoor pool, gym, and evening activities.

Facilities earn consistent praise: clean shower blocks with underfloor heating and free hairdryers, contactless check-in, and a well-stocked shop. The atmosphere is pleasantly quiet, staff are welcoming, and a traditional thatched pub sits 15 minutes' walk away. Though some visitors note the outdoor pool can look a bit neglected at times, the park's prime location for stargazing (Cranborne Chase Dark Sky Reserve is close by) and easy access to forest walks and coastal trips more than compensate.

Fantastic little park with everything you need, kids loved the pool and park, the toilets and showers where perfectly adequate with plenty of hot water and generally clean. Shop onsite is basic but is reasonably priced and had a few little snack bits and also a few toys for the kids. The pitch itself was lovely and spacious with plenty of room for caravan, awning and car without feeling like you where encroaching on others, all facilities are very close allowing the kids freedom to explore and play, Park had a really good atmosphere with everyone friendly and all kids playing together which always makes the holidays easier. We will 100% be returning as it’s and ideal little site For a long weekend away without all the added expense of staying at a bigger holiday park where everything seems to be and add on

We recently spent three days on this site. Considering the premium price it is not good value for money, not particularly safe and not clean. The field we were on was overcrowded and pitched tents and vans did not comform the to 6 meter safety gap (or 3 meters between family units) between pitches. If a fire were to break out it could be disaterous. No member of staff showed us to our pitch or spoke to us on arrival - unlike every other campsite we have ever stayed on. The swimming pool was freezing cold despite being advertised as heated (it was not, the heater was not working). The area was not clean with sticking plasters, hair bands and other rubbish both around the pool area (which were not cleaned up from day to day). We found a piece of broken glass near our lounger. The paddling pool has a leak. The two lifeguards tasked with refilling it had not bothered to clean it out before starting so it was full of rubbish like hair bands. The life guards themselves were sometimes on their phones during pool sessions. Tennis courts was ok. Play ground was ok. While the shower and toilet facilities did all work, the midday cleaning was skin deep. Walls of cubicals had the same human hairs and squashed insects on day after day, and the floor was always gritty. Spiders and dead insects around windows and in corners were never removed. The washing up facilities were ok, except the plastic drainers bolted to the side of the sinks had bits of food stuck in, that was never removed (unless we did it). We saw a member of staff on a quad bike driving very fast around the site at well over the safe speed and during the day when children were everywhere. For the price we feel the company need to do much better.
