A relaxed woodland base ideal for exploring Bournemouth and Hurn Forest
Forest Edge offers peace & quiet on the edge of the forest with woodland walks or cycle trails right on your doorstep.
The perfect base from which to explore all the region has to offer, from the adjacent Hurn Forest, with its walking, cycling and pet friendly routes, to the New Forest National Park and the award-winning beaches of Bournemouth.
It's our smallest holiday park but with neighbouring Oakdene Forest Park with its fantastic facilities, it's just a short stroll away.
Spending time at this peaceful park means revelling in life’s simple pleasures, with either bike rides, long walks on the nearby Bournemouth beach, or evenings together on the decking under star-studded skies.
Take a look around Forest Edge Holiday Park, one of our smallest parks. Here, the caravan holiday homes really provide tranquillity and relaxation in an ideal Dorset location. This park is only a short woodland walk away from Oakdene Forest Park, where you can enjoy making the most of the leisure facilities.

Frequently Asked Questions
I am interested in purchasing a Shorefield holiday home but unsure on which park?
To help narrow down your choice please visit our holiday home ownership locations page, where you can see what each park has to offer or get in touch using our quick enquiry form.
How long can I stay on park for?
Our Merley Court park now offers Residential Licences, so if you are looking for a park home that you can live in all year round, please get in touch here
All our other parks have holiday park licences, therefore they cannot be used to live on (Residential), but you can mainly come and go as and when you like during the 10 - 11 months (depending on the park) we are open. Our parks are subject to a 56 day maximum length of stay, with at least 7 days where you will need to be off park prior to returning. Typically, our parks are closed early January to early February.
What are site fees and running costs?
As with owning any home, there are running costs. These include annual site fees, rates, gas, electricity and insurance. Naturally, these change from year to year. Site fees depend on your park location and they not only cover things like general park maintenance, but your entrance to all the park venues and facilities, alongside the right to site your holiday home on our park. Other things are included in your site fees too, like grass cutting and general park upkeep. Rates are also billed annually and include refuse collection, local rates, water and wastage.
All site fees displayed on our website are reflective of the normal rate of VAT (20%) being applied. 2023/2024 site fees are included pro-rata in all new customer purchases. The price of the holiday home has no reflection on the VAT rate of site fees.
Site Fees & rates may be paid over 6 or 12 months by direct debit with an additional interest charge, direct debit is provided through premium credit. Gas and electricity are metered and invoiced twice yearly.
Is it possible to let my holiday home?
Yes, subletting your holiday home when you’re not using it can be a great way to earn extra income to offset your running costs. You can do this yourself if you wish. As a leading holiday operator, we invest in extensive national and online marketing campaigns. This ensures that we attract thousands of holidaymakers each year, many of whom will be looking to let out a property like yours. Our fully managed letting service will allow you to remain in control at all times.
Please Note: Subletting of your holiday home is not permitted at Wilksworth Caravan Park
