Good little stop over gets quite busy with trucks but still room for a few stealth campers as long as you don’t park in truck lanes
Parc national Avon Heath. Utilisé par des routiers. Endroit sûr.

Great place to park up overnight. I got there as staff were locking the gates. No issues with parking in the lorry park. 12 hours stay, no return within 8 hours. Fab place to walk the dogs. WC left unlocked overnight with full lighting. ATM and PAYG dog wash readily accessible
Solo female traveller in motorhome. parked up at 6pm last night. ,Was only one lorry here that left at about 2am, been the only one here since (but it is a bank holiday so not a normal day). Very quiet and felt very safe. Will use again and have added to my favourites. Did not use the toilet as have one on-board so cannot comment on that.
Stayed for 1 night in large Overlander vehicle. Great as a quick stopover, little busy with lorries but we weren’t disturbed. Just have to make sure you don’t park in the central area clearly for lorries.
Very busy with trucks and plenty of signs clearly stating no cars/caravans, we didn’t risk it and drove on.
I agree with the comments. Lovely spot. Great sleep. Considerate truckers. Thanks.
Stay here often. At least 1 toilet is open 24 hrs a day. Lovely walks and play area. People do need to be more considerate to where they park though as mh/vans need to park around the outside so lorries have plenty of room to more around! Would hate to lose this stop..
Avonheath country park - quiet leafy car park/truck stop next to pretty county park. Toilets open 8.30-6pm. Dog walking area. Rubbish bins. Theres a Gregs and Marks and Spencer garage on the roundabout, handy for snacks and coffees. Remember its supposed to be for trucks so be discreet and park courteously, dont use the big bays in the middle.
Slept in beside the lorries for one night no problem. Was one toilet open all night the rest open at 8am. Lovely area. Drinking water but no shower as previously mentioned
Magnifique aire de repos avec des espaces verts, de nombreux jeux pour enfant, une douche pour chien, des tables de pic-nic. Un robinet d’eau potable est disponible à l’arrière des toilettes! Nous avons passé un très bon moment sur place mais avons préféré dormir ailleurs.
Didn’t stop over night, however used the facilities and they were lovely to freshen up!!
Solo female camper parked up on Friday & Saturday consecutive nights with no issues. I parked at the side so the very large artic lorries had their own space. I felt very comfy and safe here. Facilities are very clean.
Stayed the night no issues does get busy with the HGV's. a bit noisy and the truck drivers do get a bit funny with you being in there, not so subtlety mentioning it's 12hrs only to each other but then staying longer themselves.
Off the beaten track and a great spot to stay the night, it does say no caravans however nothing about overnight sleeping. We stayed two nights but left around 8am and came back that evening. It is a truck stop so be courteous when you park. Don’t take up the big bays in the middle. There are clean toilets, bins and nice walks. Very safe
Clean loos. was there 11 til 9 on a Saturday, no bother. nice woods to walk,/ride around.
Stayed here on a Saturday night - it was fairly clear with about 6 motorhomes. came back on a Thursday night, arriving at about 9pm and it was completely full with HGVs (reasonable enough!) and so no room! choose your day/ night wisely
Nice flat paved car park with large spaces. A very peaceful night spent here and right next to Avon Heath County Park. HGV lorries and Motorhome stopped her while we were here. Would come back again and use
Would be nice, but they seem very pissed off if anyone but HGVs stay there.
Brilliant place to stay the night in your Motorhome no height restrictions and park for the kids
Everybody loves a free toilet. Decent tarmac area
Great stop off. On tarmac hard standing and toilets and showers throughout the night available. Car hear the traffic but not too bad and you feel quite a way away.
Well away from busy A31. HGV parking. Quiet night with 2 other motorhomes. Free clean toilets, drinking water on back of toilet block (no hose connection), huge adventure playground for children and great walking.
No trouble last night. Stopped over in a T5 with poptop up. We heard lorries coming and going in the small hours but there were no chavs and no one trying to move us on. 3 stars only because, after all, it's a lorry Park, albeit with a good kids playground near by.
Nice place to park for the night. Quiet. Is a truck stop but not many trucks, more campers :0)
Stopped here 1 night on way to the isle of Purbeck as we were late and delayed due to traffic on A31. Several other caravans and motorhomes also parked up when we arrived so we felt safe. lots of room to park (in the lorry bit), it was very peaceful and we weren't disturbed all night. :)
Park on the lorry part. Height barrier on main car park. Never had any problems there with our hymer. It's tolerated
Le parking poids lourd leur est exclusivement réservé, il y a des panneaux partout, le parking auto est restreint à 2 mètres par barres de hauteur et interdiction de stationnement nocturne avec menace de sabot aux contrevenants!
Très calme, parfait pour un arrêt d'une nuit. // Very calm. Perfect for 1 stop overnight.
Parking pratique pour passer une nuit après une arrivée tardive du ferry à Poole. toilettes (propres) à proximité. un peu de passage néanmoins.
