JUST RETURNED BACK FROM 10 DAYS IN TOURER AT SANDFORD AND UNFORTUNATLY ITS SAD TO SAY ITS GONE DOWN HILL.THIS OUR THIRD TIME HERE IN 2006 IT WAS FANTASTIC AND SPOTLESS,2007 JUST AS GOOD,BUT AUG 2010 DIRTY SHOWERS NOT MUCH HOT WATER GENERALY ROUGH AROUND THE EDGES, BOOKED ON THE UNDERSTANDING THAT WE COULD USE THE RIDING STABLES BUT ON ARRIVAL THEY WERE ABANDONED!!! ALSO DONT THINK YOU CAN USE THE OUTDOOR POOL COS IF ITS SLIGHTLY OVERCAST OR WINDY THEY DONT EVEN OPEN IT!!! YOU HAVE TO QUEUE UP FOR THE TINY SMELLY DIRTY INDOOR POOL....ITS A JOKE,IF ID HAVE KNOWN PARKDEAN HAD RUN IT THIS DOWN I WOULDNT HAVE BOTHERED WITH THE 300 MILE TRIP........ TRY ROCKLEY PARK IF YOU WANT TO BE NEAR POOLE..

This was our first Park Dean holiday and i am very pleased to say that we would definitley book again. The staff were fantastic and the caraven was very clean and tidy. We spent most evenings in the main hall with the park troopers, we have two children one 6yrs and one 2yrs, both our children enjoyed all the games and singing. They catered very well for both of them.

I felt i wanted to write a review as prior to this trip all the reviews I had seen was giving a very negative feeling I would like to say that for us this was NOT the case.

Well done to all the staff and especially the PARK DEAN TROOPERS!!

Sandford Weststar Holiday Park has gone down hill this year. we have been many times but noticed a big difference in the cleaniness and overall appearance of the park.none of the staff abide by the one-way system or the 10mph speed limit.they are the worst offenders!
No security walking around park as previous years.
The only thing that hasnt changed were the fabulous troopers who work so hard and are great entertainers for all ages. well done guys.
Need to improve to get our money next year.

We have just returned from 4 nights camping at Weststar Holiday Parks. First, the toilet facilities are shocking! Filthy is an understatement. the facilities were appauling. No hot water. Very low pressure, we all felt dirty the whole time we were there. No toilet paper!
No soap. No locks on doors! No one was checking the facilities. The childrens play area amounts to a "boat". What a waste of time. We were packed in like sardines, lots of drunk adults swearing late at night! Security was none existant! didn,t get any apololgies or anything positive, lots of excuses. The "entertainment" was so loud and awful we declined to go, an insult to our intelligence!
It is like camping on a motorway, traffic at fast speed everywhere, very noisey, bin collection and lots of other noise. We ordered coffee from Costa, no spoons they had ran out. NEVER AGAIN...discraceful!

PARKDEAN HOLIDAYS, Sandford Park, Nr Poole. We have recently returned from Sandford Park having loved going as children. The site has no rules cars drive around the site at all times of night which resulted in the car of one of our group being damage by someone returning to their pitch in the early hours of the morning. Luckily the car was parked across the tent so noone was hurt but the culprit didn't stop and the lack of CCTV prevented us finding them. We were pitched next to the stables which sounds idilic but the stable house a huge skip brimming over with waste which resulted in a daily infestation of wasps and beetles at night, not just one or two but hundreds so the floor was literally crawling, shower and toilet facilities were filthy dirty and not frequently chceked security were largely ineffective not doing anything about frequently speeding drivers or the camper who felt it fine to swear in the worst way 2 feet from my 4 and 6 year old neice and nephew. Food was fine first night but on my last night I was served rotten cauliflower and when I complained the chef refused to listen and instead kept shouting it baked I am extremely disappointed and will not be returning to the site. All in all a disaster

The Troupers are absolutely brilliant! They work so hard and provide the best entertainment and are so friendly and helpful.
It's a great park, 10/10, and I can't wait to go back, especially for the entertainment!

Weststar Holiday Parks, Sandford was our first camping trip and it was very successful. We went with our young children and they had the best time ever and cant wait to go back next year. It was a great cheap holiday!!

Sandford Holiday Park is great we have been now 4 times. The staff are brilliant and so friendly they always make time for you and the entertainment is fantastic. My children love it and so do I, come rain or shine there is always something to do. Can not wait to get back there.
Caravans are clean and tidy when we have always been and they deliver to your door extra pillows or sheets if you need them at no extra cost which is what you want. We have just got back from there and now planning to go again later in the year.My children love it and so do I, come rain or shine there is always something to do. Can not wait to get back there.

This sort of holiday appeals to a lot of people, but it wasn't for us. Not really into arcade games for my kids or bingo, not our scene. Why stay in a dirty, cold caravan when its nearly the same price to hire a cottage?? All seemed a bit tacky, can't understand why Sandford was given an award?!

Staff are great and we can't wait to go back!
