Five vans is the limit at Lake Farm Certificated Site, and that cap explains most of what the place is. This is Camping and Caravanning Club land at Ashington, a short way outside Wimborne in east Dorset, so you will need Club membership before you can book, and no single stay can run beyond 28 consecutive days. Tents pitch here too, alongside caravans and motorhomes, and every pitch comes with electric hook up. Dogs are fine. The A31 runs close by, which is what makes the geography work: Wimborne Minster lies about a mile to the north west, Poole about five miles south, and the beaches at Poole and Bournemouth need only a short drive. Head east instead and Ringwood and the New Forest come up at around ten miles. Nobody should arrive at Lake Farm expecting a shop, an entertainment programme or the trappings of a large touring park, because the appeal is a quiet field in Dorset and easy reach of Wimborne. Rates are not published, and the site keeps no website, so telephone 01202 849647 for availability, opening dates and the current price.
Do I need to be a Camping and Caravanning Club member to stay at Lake Farm?

Can I take a tent to Lake Farm Certificated Site?

Are dogs allowed at Lake Farm?

Is there electric hook up at Lake Farm?
Yes, pitches at Lake Farm have electric hook up. As a Certificated Site it is small, so the number of hook up pitches is limited and they go early in summer. Ring 01202 849647 to confirm a hook up pitch is free for your dates and to check prices.
