Liked: Really lovely campsite. The host was fantastic and so accommodating. Pitches were really big and loved that we could hire a fire pit. Toilet and shower facilities were always clean and the views were incredible. We will be coming back next year for definite!

Primitive grass campsite
Liked: Large, spacious field with plenty of room for well spaced out pitches. Picnic tables at most pitches is a really nice idea and provides not only an eating space but a prep space as well. Toilets were clean and showers hot. Rubbish collection point and drinking available! Very friendly owner came and greatest us and made us feel welcomed.
Disliked: It's a minor point, but there was some road noise from the A35, although it's not a busy road after a certain time in the evening and certainly didn't keep us awake.

Liked: Stunning views across farm. We loved how much space there was and could pitch wherever we liked. Nigel greeted us on arrival and was very friendly and helpful. Shower and toilet were clean. All in all we had a lovely time!
Disliked: We took our bikes with us but you have to cross a dual carriageway as that is the only road to access the farm. Once you have crossed the dual carriageway there is a nice country lane which leads into Lyme Regis which is lovely. Just crossing the main road on push bike isn't that pleasant.
