Liked: Well equip modern facilities through out the campsite. Phil the owner was very attentive and welcoming, going above and beyond for us during our stay ensuring we had everything we needed and more. The campsite its self was well maintained, clean and tidy. The showers and toilet block was spotless and cleaned after our stay. Amazing value for money! The site is in an ideal location with gorgeous views through out. We will definitely be back to visit due to the very positive experience we had. We have also recommended to friends and family to pay a visit!

Primitive grass tent or campervan campsite (premium)

Liked: We absolutely loved this campsite. It’s such a hidden gem, definitely deserves more visitors! The camping itself is really simple, some lovely flat pitches in the meadow surrounded by trees and the sounds of birds. The facilities are absolutely gorgeous, felt like we were in a hotel rather than a campsite- big showers, beautiful decoration, pretty luxurious. My partner loved the sauna, and we both liked the little honesty shop. Definitely try the homegrown veg! The owners were so lovely and really made us feel welcome, and we’ll definitely be back for a longer stay. The dog was happy too! Thank you both 😁

Primitive grass tent or campervan campsite (premium)

Liked: Absolutely wonderful site. The facilities are simply stunning and the shower has to be up there with a five star hotel. We were offered to use the sauna but declined as we were only there for one night and had more to do. But on our next visit we certainly will try it out. It looked beautiful. We have a camervan and it was lovely to be on such firm and well levelled grass pitches. The bell tents looked absolutely stunning, but we didn’t go inside. A great little honesty shop on site. Really handy for some fresh eggs if needed and some other staples. Phillip was an amazing host and the communication was excellent. I cannot highly recommend this enough and we camp a lot.

Primitive grass tent or campervan campsite (premium)

Liked: A warm friendly welcome on arrival. The owner proudly showed us around this new site. We followed a cut path through the meadow in our vw camper to get to our our good sized and level pitch. The toilets, showers and washing up area are in the centre of the site along with a wood fired barrel sauna. The toilets were lovely and clean, the showers amazing , and the sauna was a real treat. The pitches are nicely spaced out, and all linked by paths mown through the wildflower meadow. A small honesty shop sells eggs, coffee, toothpaste etc. We only spent one night here, but had a lovely time and will return again soon.

Local attractions

Getting out to explore should be easy, with a footpath leading from the site and taking you over to Sustrans Cycle Path 33. Spreading your wings a little further takes you into the Blackdown Hills or Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with a drive of around 10-15 minutes. Keeping a focus on rural days out, you may also like to sign up for one of the experiences at Sharandys Birds of Prey (five minutes’ drive) or meet the rescued animals at Ferne Animal Sanctuary (10 minutes). If nosing around country properties is more of your thing, stroll around the grounds of Forde Abbey and Gardens (15 minutes) or visit National Trust estates Barrington Court and Montacute House (both 20 minutes). And then to the coast? There’s a fossil-hunting hub in Charmouth (25 minutes), mackerel fishing trips in Lyme Regis (half an hour) and a sandy beach and heritage tramway in Seaton (half an hour).
