Moreton CCC site is flat and is situated quite near to a railway station for ease of transport to seaside too. It is very close to Monkey World.

It was my favourite site when I lived on the South coast.

Wareham Forest Touring Park sounds perfect.  We've just come back from there.

Set in the forest itself, so lots of walk from the site safely into woodland.  Whole site is flat, pitches are flat, and close to Monkey World.

Onsite shop, spotless showers and outdoor pool, small play area, large flat green area for games, table tennis room, if your kids like their bikes their are numerous trails so take the bikes!   Nice private pitches (not too close together and with some hedging/trees growing for privacy on the hardstanding pitches).  A well kept site.

Never been yet, we're booked in for the last 2 weeks of July, and I know some of the pitches are sloping, but there are also flat pitches at The Inside Park - and the play area looks amazing.

Birchwood Tourist Park is next door to Wareham forest, I am not sure if pitches/park is flat though as we've only driven past it.

Norden Farm, Corfe Castle (within earshot of a Swanage Railway steam whistle!) has a small play park - and a "pets corner".

Wareham Forest & South Lytchett Manor are the flatest & nearest to Monkey World.

Many sites in Dorset, especially around the Purbeck area are slopping ..... & in many cases VERY slopping! Refered to by some one else before as having to be a Mountain Goat in order to set up camp!

Thanks everyone, seems like everywhere is either booked up or too sloping, so going to have to re-think our visit to monkey world and our camping road trip

Would have also voted for Wareham Forest -shame it's fully booked, it's a great site - worth thinking of for next time.  We stayed at Easter,

If you are members of C&CC, I would recommend Crabbs Bluntshay Farm, a CS. We stayed last year, school summer holidays, and only booked a few weeks before.
