Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked: Pick your own pitch, clean facilities, great views, owner / employee super helpful- didnt catch his name but he was driving around delivering fire wood to people all afternoon for them & always approachable ! Short drive to all the popular places :)

Disliked: The whole site slopes a fair amount. Windy site, so try to pitch near hedges at the sides! 20p for the shower only gets you 2 minutes (per 20p). found that out the hard way. Site gets boggy during rain which can be an issue for non-off road cars as there is no hard standing to drive on to get to your pitch. They are ready to tow you out whenever you need, but something to consider

Local attractions

You’ll feel like you’ve stumbled into a scene from a storybook at Harman’s Cross station (10 minutes’ walk). Pick a picnic bench, gaze at the old-school platforms and Portland stone period buildings and watch as the trains roll by. More history hangs heavy in the air at Corfe Castle (five minutes’ drive). The Jurassic Coast is where you’ll find most of the action… head down early to beat the crowds to Durdle Door (30 minutes) and its neighbour Lulworth Cove. It's hard to beat a shoreline that has silky sand, iconic landmarks and paddle-worthy waters all in one. Tick your way along the coast, beginning with a dip in the shallow pool at Dancing Ledge (5 minutes), and then on to Winspit Quarry (15 minutes) and the clifftop Durlston Country Park and National Nature Reserve (15 minutes)… or pick between watersports or a sandcastle face-off on the beaches of Sandbanks (40 minutes) and Studland (10 minutes).
