Our parks

Seven privately run parks between the Solent and the Cheshire plain

Each one is owned and run by the same group, held to the same standard, and let directly rather than through an agency. Bookings are open at 3 of them today; the rest are being built or refurbished, and each one says so on its own page.

Owslebury, Winchester, Hampshire · 52 acres

Marwell Court

Fifty-two acres held quietly between woodland and water in the South Downs National Park, seven miles south of Winchester. One gated entrance, camera coverage, grounds kept on your behalf — and Marwell Resort next door, so the restaurant, the gym and the activities are a walk away rather than a drive.

Horton, Wimborne, Dorset · 50 acres

Meadow View Park

Fifty freehold acres at Horton in east Dorset, six miles from Wimborne Minster and the same again from the New Forest boundary. Unusually for a park of this kind it runs a wellness centre and equestrian facilities alongside the accommodation.

Tarvin, Chester, Cheshire · 25 acres

Tarvin Sands

Twenty-five acres on Kelsall Road with six and a half acres of it under water: a set of established coarse fishing lakes that have drawn anglers to this corner of Cheshire for years. Chester is six miles, Delamere Forest the same.

Hurn, Christchurch, Dorset · 8 acres

BDOC South

Eight acres of elevated greenfield on Matchams Lane, with views over the surrounding woodland. Consent is in place for up to ninety-nine lodges and the ground has been cleared, but nothing is built yet — so there is nothing here to book.
