Motorhome Stopovers in Shillingstone

Shillingstone is a village in the Blackmore Vale in north Dorset, sitting in the valley of the River Stour between Blandford Forum and Sturminster Newton. The A357 runs through the area, making it straightforward to reach from the A30 or A303 corridor to the north. The surrounding landscape is classic Dorset vale — rolling farmland, hedged lanes, and a quiet, unhurried pace.

Members of the Motorhome Stopover Club share verified overnight stops in and around the Blackmore Vale. Shillingstone makes a practical base for motorhome-friendly exploration of this lesser-visited part of Dorset, well away from the busy coastal routes.
