Hot tub caravan and lodge holidays near Bournemouth

Hoburne Park was the very first Hoburne holiday park to open its doors, back in 1912, and remains the perfect base to launch an active and exciting holiday. Set in an intimate and exclusive location you’re just a few minutes’ walk from the soft sandy Avon  beach or a further stroll to picturesque Mudeford Quay or pretty Hengistbury Head.

On park, we’ve designed it so you’re always in easy reach of pretty much everything. Make the most of the indoor and outdoor pools, fitness suite, café, bar and brasserie, and enjoy evening entertainment from your talented Hoburne Hosts and guest cabaret acts in The Venue.
