DORSET PARK SCOOPS FAMILY-FUN ACCOLADE

a68cc85f-2fb1-4743-a346-40ae61df446d
A former Dorset farm which 50 years ago became known as the perfect pitch for coast-loving caravanners has just won a top tourism award.
Freshwater Beach Holiday Park in Bridport beat hundreds of competitors to take the prestigious overall title of the AA Holiday Centre of the Year 2013.
The family-run business is situated in 90 acres of quiet West Dorset countryside with its own beach frontage.
In addition to its fleet of luxury holiday homes for hire, the park provides leisure homes for sale, with all accommodation just a short stroll from the Jurassic Coast.
It was this stretch of heritage coastline which gave its name to Freshwater's recently opened Jurassic Fun Centre where facilities include a ‘wet and wild’ pool, sauna and steam rooms, fully-equipped gym and bowling alley. Professional shows are also staged each night in the main season in the entertainment centre.
In making the award, judges also looked at the overall quality of the environment, standards of upkeep and the service provided by staff.
