Romany Caravans

Yes, they are perfect for families! Each bow top wagon sleeps 2 adults and 2 children under 14 years with a full-size double bed and two single beds. The traditional Romany caravan design captivates children’s imagination whilst modern features and nearby facilities ensure family comfort and convenience.

Our handcrafted Romany bow top wagons feature authentic traditional construction by expert craftsmen, hand-painted exteriors and period furnishings, creating a heritage atmosphere whilst providing modern facilities including electric log burners, TV and compact kitchen facilities.

Yes, selected Romany Caravans are dog-friendly, welcoming pets for £5 per night per dog. The dedicated dog exercise and agility area is nearby and we have a complimentary wash station for muddy paws after countryside adventures.

Each Romany Caravan includes a two-ring electric hob, a kettle, a coffee pod machine and a under the counter refrigerator. You’ll need to bring your own crockery, cutlery, cooking equipment and washing up supplies. The private decking provides perfect space for alfresco dining with a heritage caravan atmosphere.

In need of some holiday inspiration?  Take a trip to the Information Hut, located in the middle of the park.  The hut is packed full of local maps, activity and attraction recommendations, cycle and walking routes and inspiration for planning days out in Dorset.

Don’t hesitate to ask the reception team for recommendations. They live locally and know which beaches work best with young kids, top attractions, and ideas for rainy days.

We’ve got options that don’t involve you cooking every meal or driving to Poole when everyone’s tired.

Regular catering vans visit the park serving fish & chips, wood oven pizza, Thai, Funky fries and delicious pancakes. Perfect for when you just want someone else to cook. To see who is visiting, take a look here.

During high season, grab a delicious breakfast butty from the Café at the Gates or a freshly baked pastry, along with a barista-style coffee.

From May till the end of September, join us for a sundowner at The Manor’s Tap. Open 4 pm to 8 pm daily, serving a selection of beer, wine, cocktails and soft drinks.

Our shop is well stocked with all of the essentials and local produce, just in case you forget anything.
