Fossil Hunting, Halloween and Grizzly Run

Halloween week is in full swing here at Newlands, the spookiest, scariest holiday park in Dorset! This year’s Halloween is turning out to be the best ever, with loads of things going on for both kids and grown-ups.

So far this week we’ve been making monster masks and playing ‘guess the weight of the giant eyeball cake’. See if you can guess right!



There’s plenty still to look forward to this week – pumpkin carving, spooky storytelling, apple bobbing, and a ‘hunt the body parts’ game around the park!

The Grizzly Run 2012


The Grizzly Run is one of the most popular annual events in West Dorset. Each year, thousands of intrepid runners take on the grueling 20 mile course across tough terrain including pebble beaches, rocks and steep hills. It’s a unique challenge not for the faint-hearted, and the finishing line in Seaton always draws a big crowd.



 

Next year’s Grizzly Run takes place on Sunday 11th March, and if you’re thinking of taking part, we’re offering cut-price breaks for those of you who book with us early.

We’re currently taking bookings for short breaks from as little as £110 for accommodation for up to 4 people from 9th March - 12th March 2012. Ensuite rooms are also available, and prices start from £45.00 per night. Call us now on 01297 560259 in order to get the best deal possible!

Fossil Hunting in Charmouth


It’s been a mixed couple of weeks in terms of weather here in Dorset. We’ve had a fair amount of nice sunny days in amongst the windy, wintery ones, and fortunately rain has been kept to a minimum.



The great thing about Dorset is that there is always something to do whatever the weather. For example, fossil hunters welcome the strong gusting winds and heavy seas, because these are the perfect conditions for them to find fossils in the beaches and cliffs around Charmouth and Lyme Regis. The punishing weather exposes prehistoric remains that have remained hidden in the rocks and cliffs for millions of year, meaning that your chances of finding fossils in good condition are greatly improved.

If you fancy trying your luck at fossil hunting on the famously fossil-rich Jurassic Coat, the best time to visit is towards the end or the beginning of the year. Our Lyme Regis holiday park is ideally located for a fossil-hunting break, and we’ll be able to direct you towards experienced fossil experts who give guided tours of the local beaches and can tell you exactly where and how to look.

'Excellent site with clean facilities, friendly staff!'

'Friendly staff, the staff in the shop was incredibly welcoming! Loved how we were escorted to our pitch and also offered help with putting the caravan on the pitch. Swimming pool was small but ideal, good sauna! Outdoor pool was lovely also! Facilities were spotless considering we had awful weather they work extremely hard! Very clean site, great value for money!'

"Definitely will be back"

 
Good location with Charmouth beach and lyme regis near. Nice facilities on site and nice rooms. The tow bar restaurant is a gem with great food. Liked the activities on our stay like bingo. Overall a good stay and would love to come back again.
 

"Everything we needed"

Very tidy site, well laid out and well equipped. Towbar restaurant offered a good selection of quality food at all meal times, very good value for money and super friendly service. There is a small shop on site for all your essentials with access to another slightly larger shop in the village. Two pools and children’s play areas plus a gaming room were a real bonus. Shower and toilet blocks were cleaned regularly and always kept in good order. Location is fantastic, especially for avid fossil hunters with Charmouth beach around 20 minutes easy walk away through the village.
 

"What a wonderful place"

We have just returned from a wonderful holiday at Newlands. We stayed in the studio apartment block down the end (A17). The apartment was incredibly clean, spacious and had everything we needed for a short stay. My twin sons (3.5 years old) had the twin room, mum had the double bed, and I stayed on a blow up mattress that I brought with. We were very comfy.
