Sandhills Holiday Park, Dorset

 All the CARAVANS and LODGES are PRIVATELY OWNED  and the site is maintained to a good standard for the more DISCERNING VISITORS.

Elsewhere, the park has a well-equipped CHILDREN'S PLAYGROUND, small GYM and LAUNDERETTE.

Now substantially converted into flats, the SANDHILLS CLUBHOUSE has its own historical interest. It was once the holiday home of SIR GEORGE ROSE MP, who was a close friend and advisor to prime minister WILLIAM PITT.

Sir George's other great friend was KING GEORGE III who stayed there on a number of occasions in the early 1800s and in doing so made CHRISTCHURCH a fashionable tourist destination.

DURING the 1940s and 50s Sandhills was used as a SCHOOL.
