Hi All,

I am in desperate help of finding a nice touring site for our 2 week holiday in august. We are hoping to go down near dorset, doodle door way.  We are struggling to find a nice camp site, that lets us take our dog, has evening entertainment, and some activies to keep our 2 teenage boys amused! They are 13 & 15!

I have spent the last 2 days online searching. We also would like a coastal site, as we love the sea, sand etc. Are we asking too much. We can book a haven, park site etc, but they are asking  £600 for the 2 weeks.

If anyone could recommend a nice family site, with the above, we would be extremely grateful, as we are giving up hope now.

Thanks Guys, kelly x

You may be struggling to find one because you are misspelling Doodle Door. Its Durdle Door.

Don't personally know the site but there is one at Durdle Door http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/reviews.asp?revid=1243

Do you know the area? Durdle Door is in  a super area but it is a bit out of the way. Swanage is not too far away & will offer more for the kids.

Well after looking again I am not sure if you are renting the pitch or buying it outright! That's expensive

 Another vote for Hoburne Bashley

was looking for just a good site on the coast, doesn't have to be close to durdle door, was just looking on that coast.

Unfortunately it poured down for 14 days last year, and with the boys getting a bit older, their harder to please, so was looking for a site that caters mainly for them, us and the dog are easy to please, its just the kids..

Most of the caravan/camping sites haven't got any evening entertainment, hence whilst we are struggling to find anywhere

Kim, we have gambled with one near lulworth, we just hope theres plenty for the kids.  2 weeks seems forever when the kids are constantly moaning...lol

Not sure if anyone else has noticed, but the prices this year seem to have gone up quite abit, not from companies like haven etc, but the independent run companies. We normally pay £300 for 2 weeks, but this year its costing us nearly £500!!! so lets hope theres plenty for the boys
