We go to Oakdene Forest Park all the time and have stayed in a Burley caravan, a Cranborne caravan and 2 different lodges all the accommodation we stayed in was very clean. We are going back for Christmas 2011 and can't wait. The entertainment doesn't bother us to much as we go for the peace and quiet (don't know what... More

The place is a tip, the management haven't a clue. By the looks of the number of empty pitches, caravan owners are leaving in droves. More

Booked a last minute weekend deal as could not find accommodation elsewhere and stayed in a burley caravan, which to be honest was fine for our needs. That's where the positives stop as the food, entertainment etc are poor. The oak suite was shut on the Saturday night as a private function took priority over guests who were left with... More

Oakdene were doing their best at 11pm and we decided to head home as their were a few families with very young kids. and we only lived an hour and half away and were still under the limit.... More

We stayed at Oakdene for a week in August with our 16 year old son and his mate. The large site is in an attractive forest setting, but only 600 yards off a busy dual carriageway. Its well situated for trips into Bournemouth, Poole and the attractions of the surrounding area. Arriving on a Saturday, the Reception area appeared under... More
