Holiday inspiration

Of course, we might be biased but we think Dorset is the best place for a holiday in the UK. With miles upon miles of world famous coastline, picturesque countryside and award-winning attractions to explore, there’s so much to see and do during your stay at our holiday park.

Ulwell Holiday Park is an independent and family run site that has been under the same ownership for more than 50 years. During this time, we like to think we know a thing or two about creating memorable breaks that the whole family will enjoy. If you’re in need of some holiday inspiration, to help you craft your dream getaway on the South Coast, make sure you read the info below. Our ‘inspire’ pages have been created with you, the customer in mind, to help you plan your break at our Swanage holiday park.

Lovely Caravan Park

I’ve been coming to Ulwell now for around 20 years and have always been impressed by the site. The caravans are always an excellent standard, indoor swimming pool, great on site shop and great restaurant. Have never had any problems in all the years I’ve been coming here and I’m sure will continue to spend my holidays here in the coming years. The staff are always friendly and helpful.

I have been visiting Ulwell for 10 years and as soon as I arrive I feel at home. This time I stayed in a caravan and was so happy with the layout and cleanliness. The shop is well stocked and sells some nice pastries. The village Inn is a nice little spot to relax and have a drink. The food is good too.
