Liked: An excellent weekend stay, large pitch sizes and lots of room for children to play. Fire pits allowed. Perfect location for exploring the Dorset coast and only a few minutes from popular attractions such as Monkey World, Lulworth Cove, Lulworth Castle and the tank museum.

Primitive grass and earth tent campsite
Liked: The campsite is a simple field but the owners are very friendly and welcoming. I travelled with my dog and they loved him! I felt very safe at the campsite as a female solo traveller and everyone from the tents surrounding us was very nice and helpful. The toilets are very nice quality and very clean, and the showers are great too. Both showers and toilets have enough space to bring your dog in (mine has separation anxiety so cannot be left by the tent). They provide slates and other equipment for you to put your cooker on so you don't burn the grass which is fab. There is a washing up station with hot water and there is a dog poo bin on site. We also received complimentary dog ice cream on arrival which distracted my dog whilst I put up the tent and he was a happy boy.
Disliked: Could probably do with more than two toilets but didn't have to wait that long to use them

Liked: Location
Disliked: Site not maintain long grass Not enough facilities to shower and use the toilet one toilet and the other is in the shower so if they are showering you have one toilet. Un level pitches too close flet like it was in a garden of a Airbnb as their was one on the site.

Primitive grass and earth tent campsite
Liked: Mark was a lovely host. Very chatty and amenable. I liked the fact that young adults with additional needs were helping Mark to learn every day skills
Disliked: There were not enough amenities for everyone. With 20 pitches there were only 2 toilets and 2 showers. It wasn’t pleasant being so cramped when everyone arrived. The tents were literally on top of each other with barely any privacy There was no shop onsite to even buy the essentials. The pitch sizes were only designed for small tents, which we didn’t have. We certainly didn’t have room for our toilet and shower tent which would have come in very handy rather than have to wait in line to use the toilet or shower. The website was not accurate and the photo’s over glamourised the actual site. It really is a small campsite with no charging points or electric pitches.
