Bowleaze Cove Holiday Park & Spa Wins Gold at the Dorset Tourism Awards

Four people stood smiling with an award
We’re delighted to announce that Bowleaze Cove Holiday Park & Spa has won Gold for Holiday Park of the Year at the Dorset Tourism Awards, recognising the park’s contribution to Dorset’s tourism industry and the experience it creates for guests.

Located on the coast just outside Weymouth, Bowleaze Cove brings together seaside surroundings, family-friendly facilities and plenty to enjoy throughout a holiday. But behind every memorable stay is a team whose hard work and dedication help make it all possible. 

Celebrating the people behind the park

This award is a fantastic achievement for Bowleaze Cove and a testament to the people who bring the park to life every day. 

From welcoming guests and keeping facilities running smoothly to creating memorable experiences for families, the team plays an essential role in making Bowleaze Cove a place guests want to return to. 

Their commitment, enthusiasm and attention to the guest experience are a huge part of what makes the park special. We’re incredibly proud to see their efforts recognised with this Gold award.

What makes Bowleaze Cove special?

With its coastal location and a wide range of on-park facilities, Bowleaze Cove offers plenty of ways to make the most of a Dorset holiday. 

Guests can enjoy indoor and outdoor swimming pools, relaxing treatments at Waterside Spa, family entertainment and activities, alongside opportunities to explore the surrounding coastline. The park also offers a choice of places to eat and drink, including Drift Bar & Grill and the Arena Sports Bar introduced for 2026. 

And with Bowleaze Cove beach on the doorstep and Weymouth close by, there’s plenty to discover beyond the park, too.

A double celebration for Waterside

There’s more good news to celebrate, with Southside Funfair receiving Bronze in the New Business Attraction of the Year category at the Dorset Tourism Awards. 

The funfair adds another dimension to the visitor experience in Weymouth, giving families even more to enjoy during their time on the coast. Its recognition alongside Bowleaze Cove makes this a particularly proud moment for Waterside. 

Together, the awards celebrate the people, experiences and attractions that help make a Dorset getaway memorable.
