About the Area

Coastal Dreams is situated in Gorse Hill, on a quiet part of this flagship Haven holiday park. Offering a load of facilities for you and your family to enjoy, from a small beach with water sports, to swimming pools and activities (charges may apply), Rockley Park has plenty to do for all ages - everything you could want for a fantastic break in Dorset by the sea.

With breathtaking views across Poole Harbour, Rockley Park is set in some of the most beautiful surroundings you can imagine. Who needs to go abroad with a beautiful setting like this available right here? It is ideal for holidays or short breaks to the Dorset coast.

There are many great walks locally, including Hamworthy Common where you can spend many hours bird watching. There are also walks along the top of the cliffs looking over Poole Harbour and the Jurassic Coast. Hamworthy Park is just a five minute drive away, which is great for the young ones to enjoy with a large play area, a large padding pool and a small sandy beach with claim waters.

Upton Country Park is a great place to spend a day and have a picnic.

You can always take an open top bus trip from the bus stop opposite Haven’s Reception, which runs every half hour into Poole bus station. Whilst you are there you will find many pubs and restaurants to enjoy a meal or just a drink, or have a stroll along the quayside where there are many boat trips that you can take. Poole Quay is also a must during the summer months. Poole Quayside offers different events from classic cars, motor bike rallies, pirate days, vintage days, and live music.

Locally there are lovely beaches to spend the day, from award-winning Bournemouth beaches and Sandbanks.

There are many attractions to spend your days out too, including the Tank Museum, Monkey World, Farmer Palmer’s, Paulton's Park (Pepper Pig World), Adventure Wonderland Park, Marwell Zoo and much more, all just a short drive away.

Tower Park is just 20 minutes away, where you’ll find a cinema, ten pin bowling and restaurants.

Rockley Park Holiday Park will allow you to enjoy a family holiday with plenty of activities, including games of crazy golf or a swim at the indoor/ outdoor pools. Then why not have a spot of lunch or dinner at Burger King, The Mash and Barrel, Papa John's Pizza or Cook's Fish & Chips. Then round off the day with entertainment in the Live Lounge, with kids' entertainment then a show for the adults.
