Liked: Really warm and friendly welcome. Nice field to pitch in with lovely views. A lovely site that has a few facilities but still feels close to nature. I ddn't want a very built-up site or one that was super crowded and this was perfect!

Liked: The location is fantastic! From the site there are stunning walks round the cliffs and Portland Bill. It’s really well organised and the information given was great. The staff were really friendly. The showers were clean and warm. There was a hit for drinks and food. Even a tent for massages. Pitches were spacious
Disliked: If you don’t like compost toilets and you don’t have your own option then this site is not for you. They were unpleasant but tolerable
