Liked: The staff all went out of their way to help us with any problem that arose and as ill prepared campers there were a few.

Disliked: The only complaint I could think of is that a few smokers bins along the path might help.

Liked: The site wasnt full on our stay so was quiet..the site is a clean site no litter.Staff are very friendly.

Disliked: The yappy dog near us was annoying,The bar didnt have any real ale on should have been a choice of 3.i think.And prices are a bit steep,couldnt see why we didnt get the grass pitch we booked online,seemed plenty of room while we were there,hate camping on hardcore..Didnt realise all of the static vans until we looked on hawkchurch main site after we booked.probably suit others but not us im affraid.

Liked: The location is fantastic, very convenient to everything in the area, especially River Cottage HQ.
The Caravan and the Park was one of the best we stayed in throughout our trip through the UK. All the staff were very helpful.
We would recommend to anyone to stay tat Hawkchurch Country Park.

Disliked: There is nothing I disliked about the place.

Liked: Great camp site, clean toilets with large shower cubicles and hairdryers provided. We were able to pitch our tent in any available space in the bottom field. We used the club which we found cheap for drinks and the entertainer was good. We will be using the campsite again very soon!

Disliked: Nothing disliked though would be useful if there were a toilet in the field!

Liked: Facilities were great, showers, toilets and laundry good.

Disliked: /

Liked: lovely quiet campsite (no more than half-a-dozen tents at any time when we stayed at end of half-term).
good clean and heated facilities (shared with large caravan/cabin site but obviously they don't use them much).
short drive to lyme regis.

Disliked: there would not be enough facilities if the campsite itself was busy (eg, 4+4+1 showers, 2 dishwash basins).
the shop hours are 9-5 only (pain if you want an early breakfast or buy something late and you don't have own cooling facilities).
parts of the campsite are a bit sloped (not a problem when we stayed as we could pitch where we wanted).

Liked: Plenty of facilities to use , quiet location, good sized pitches.

Disliked: Theres nothing to dislike

Liked: Good sized hard standing pitch. Toilets always clean and ample hot water although due to the amount of people at the site over the Bank Holiday Week end this resource did become a little over stretched. The staff were always courteous and helpful. The club offered a decent menu and the meals that we chose were cooked well and the service was good. The price paid for the stay was very fair compared to some of the so called 'better sites' whose prices in high season are as much as double for no extra facilities.

Disliked: Nothing to make me put anything in writing.

Liked: Good value camping even on a bank holiday weekend! Loved having bbq's even if the weather was a bit nippy. Lyme Regis is beautiful and my boys enjoyed another day out at seaton trams. Toliets and showers are keep clean and it nice to have a heated towel rail in them. Liked having a family wash room, kiddies playarea and Bar to go to when the cold weather got to us. Received great customer service and I am sure we will be back!

Disliked: Nothing really disliked apart from the cold weather at night but that's the uk for you. Just a small point it is really handy having a family washroom but it would be really good if there was more than one as we did have to que for it.

Liked: The campsite was a good location for a base, if wanting to explore and see the suronding areas, we were the only people through out the camping fields for the duration of our stay! we wasnt bothered by any one and were left alone it was lovley, the staff were freindly in the shop and helped us out and guided us if needed, the shower block at the top near the entrance were lovley and kept clean, only fault is you had to press the on button every 3-5 minutes, but its all part of the camping experience!

Disliked: There was no electric plug sockets and the camping field toilets do need a update! or some tlc!

Liked: The whole place with one exception the loos nerest the the electiric tent field needs replacing but the ones near reception were brill the staff were very nice and welcoming and the breakfast was brill

Disliked: Nothing

Liked: Nice site, great staff ,quiet, good food and beer , good clean site, for price we payed for 3 nights excellent value for money thanks

Disliked: Possibly need to update far toilet block long walk to showers And more water points but really just nit picking as not a lot else to say but great site

Liked: A camping field all to ourselves, lovely toilets and showers, free hairdryers and a very reasonable price

Disliked: Nothing

Liked: The caravan itself as well as the location, environment and facilities at the park.

Disliked: Nothing!!

Liked: Me and my partner had a lovely stay at this site, the staff was welcoming, helped us explained where everything was on the site, even tho we booked for non electric hookup they let us stay in the hookup camp, there was toliets right next to our pitch that was cleaned everyday, we was happy that we could have a Barbie, the showers was lovely warm and clean, the bar was wicked great staff, great places friendly people, the site was well lite so when going to toilet late at night could easy see where we was going would vist again

Disliked: There is nothing to dislike brilliant place

Liked: I loved have the toliets next to the tent, they was cleaned everyday, the staff was very helpful, made me and my partner welcome when we arrived, it was great that we could use a Barbie, as most places don't allow, lovely location, will come back to this place again, the bar was lovely friendly staff, loved the showers nice and warm,

Disliked: There is nothing to dislike at this place

Liked: The wonderful shower block which was clean, well lit, and spider free! My morning shower was hot and powerful. I dried my hair with the provided hairdriers at the mirrors while my towel dried on the heated towel rail. Luxury!

I didnt visit the shop or restaurant/bar but was pleased to know that they were there should we get some bad weather.

Staff were polite and helpful. Welcome pack was informative and we were left to our own devices to enjoy the sun un disturbed.

Disliked: Could not find anywhere to dispose of hot ash from our BBQ on the morning that we left. Obviously didnt want to put this in the main bins incase of fire, and didnt want to leave out or throw into the hedgerow, unsure what we were expected to do.
The other toilet block near the rally field was less impressive than the main showers. bit run down and dirty.
All very minor issues: in no way negatively impacted on our weekend!

Liked: Good site not far from the A35
We stayed in an almost new budjet caravan
everything new so no problems?

Disliked: well there was 1 problem we could not get Hot water from the shower, the site sent a plumber to fix it the next day but we still could not get hot water from the shower. We had to use the toilet block for a shower bit of a nuisance means getting dressed twice
the caravan had various minor defects nothing serious

when I say budjet caravan..........

single glazed
fan heating
cheap quality cooker and pots and pans
bed soft
bad condensation on windows every morning
I wont be staying in a static again if this caravan is anything to go by

Liked: The facilities were great, the staff lovely and the location perfect! We'll be returning soon.

Disliked: Nothing

Liked: Facilities, friendly staff, security

Disliked: the bingo was way too loud it should of been optional , you couldnt just sit with friends and talk, you had to be silent whilst it was going on.

Liked: The static was really lovely. Obviously fairly new as it had a for sale sign on the side saying new 2012. Spacious, clean and everything you could need.
Sadly we had to cut our stay short due to a family bereavement, but the staff both in the office/shop and restaurant/bar were lovely. Can't fault it.
Thank you very much to all of the staff. We will definitely be back either to stay in a static or to camp.

Disliked: Nothing. Only comment is that it really could do with a mat in the shower as both myself and my husband slipped on the floor. Only a small thing and the only thing I can say was needed.

Liked: the people on site were friendley and helpfull

Disliked: the club house was not open so we had to travel to get food each night

Liked: The friendly and helpful attitude of staff.

Disliked: There was nothing to dislike.

Liked: Spacious camping fields.

Disliked: Nothing to dislike

Liked: The location and views were lovely

Disliked: The showers and sinks were not as clean as I would have liked and I don't think relying on people to mop the floor after their shower is enough.

Liked: Friendly helpful staff, nice clean toilets, lovely views from the non electric tent field, the shop was also well priced. Perfect location for seeing the local area

Overall a lovely campsite, would definatley go back, hopefully with better weather :o)

Disliked: No plug sockets in the showers, so as we were staying on the non electric pitches, there was no where to plug in straightners (girls problem!), or just to give your phone a quick charge while doing your teeth, which you would normally find on campsites. Also the shower heads were straight down from the ceiling, so it was hard to have a shower without getting your hair soaking wet, and personally i don't like to have to dry my hair everyday! My husband and i started using the older shower block by the caravans as these had normal shower heads coming from the wall rather than the ceiling.

Liked: Lovely site, clean, facilities of a good standard, we will return.

Disliked: Nothing

Liked: People - couldn't be more helpful and friendly - both in shop and restaurant.

Food - in the bar, was really good and reasonably priced

Shop - well stocked and again, very reasonable.

Disliked: Showers and toilets :(

In desperate need of refurbishment. Plenty of hot water, but too hot for a child to stand under. Water in the shower didn't drain away very well leaving you standing in it.

Liked: The toilet and shower facilities.
The restaurant/bar/take-away.
The relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff.

Disliked: Nothing.

Liked: Very friendly
Great atmosphere
Clean n tidy
All in all an enjoyable stay

Disliked: Nothing

Liked: Food in clubhouse was excellent - a bit of a wait but worth it.
Camping fields were fairly empty so enjoyed the secluded quiet atmosphere
Great peaceful location situated ideally for many towns and attractions

Disliked: Family room- shower not working and unable to use adult facilities as water was boiling hot with no option to cool water
Grass very long on arrival but cut half way through the week

Liked: Camping meadows were large and had great views from the higher ground.
Very peaceful.
Convenient location for the always beautiful Lyme Regis.
Toilet/shower blocks were always clean and the water hot.
Access to freezer for ice packs.
Didnt use the clubhouse or restaurant but it looked good and appeared to be well priced.
All staff we encountered were most helpful.

Disliked: The grass was a little long with lots of cut grass lying about. As the weather was wet this made things quite messy around the tent.
Camping area could do with its own toilet/shower block. The nearest is only a few hundred yards away amongst the caravans but seems further at 02:00 in the morning !! Queued for showers most mornings as well.
Freezer situated a long way from the campsite. Could have another one in the new toilet/shower block for the campers ?

Liked: The staff, the site, the shop, the view from the campsite. Everything except the showers.

Disliked: The showers - in the women's block one of four wasn't working, one was blocked, one had only a dribble of water, and just one worked as it was meant to. An extra hook in each cubicle would be brilliant, too, and wouldn't break the bank. Such a shame - everything else is good but showers are such a vital part of being able to feel presentable and human while camping!

Liked: The facilities were always clean and of very high standard. I never had to queue for use of the facilities.

The grass was kept short and the ground was in good order for camping. The tent pitches looked out over the valley, providing some beautiful views especially in the evening.

Extremely good value for money and somewhere I'd definitely reccommend.

Disliked: Evening entertainment probably wasn't geared towards young couples...more families/older couples.

Liked: having the bar/restaurant on sit.
being close to most places of interest and good beaches
the peace and quiet

Disliked: there was nothing to dislike, we shall stat there again

Liked: the staff couldn't do enough to help you/make you feel welcome. the site was clean and quiet and the addition of a bar restaurant was good.

Disliked: not hawkchurch's fault but it's difficult to get a taxi to go there.

Liked: The size of the site, the toilets and how friendly the staff were. Only went to the club house once, but had a great time.

Disliked: The grass was really long in our field and as it was very wet when we there it was a real pain.

Liked: Camping 1st time with 2 young kiddies, we had a fun time at hawchurch country park. The kids loved the play area which very conviently is opposite the bar, so we could have a drink and watch while they played. Toliet and shower block was clean and pleasant enough with hairdryers, showers were always hot. There is also a family shower room which was handy. We visited seaton trams which my boys loved! We would come back again as would liked to have more time to explore Lyme regis.

Disliked: The weather rained alot, but thats uk hols for you! The food was fairly good in the restaurant, however both me and my husband did recieve burnt garlic bread and my son had a glass with lipstick on it.

Liked: The views: wildflower fields and Dorset/Devon valleys
Easy drive to Lyme Regis, Sidmouth, Seaton, Beer, Axminster
The shop- well equipped plus you can borrow bricks for bbqs

Disliked: The showers - dribble, no pressure, got dirty v easily (why not say no shoes in the shower area?)
Would have been better to split the fields into one family field and one non-family field

Liked: Good, fairly flat field to camp in, not too far from hot showers and clean toilets. Site is very well maintained, facilities good, shop reasonably priced. Could do with more showers nearer the tent field, but on the whole very pleased with what we found.

Disliked: The people in the tent next to us talking til gone 1 in the morning, when we checked in the curfew times were not really pointed out to us, but we are quiet and read the brochure we were given. The people next door obviuosly didn't, maybe the person who checks you in could make more of the quiet times to each group as this was very disturbing - they woke us up and then talked for over an hour.

Liked: Shop
Take out service
Very friendly & helpfull staff

Disliked: Ladies / family showers were not working properly. Family shower did not have hot water, which was horible with 2 toddlers waiting. The ladies shower was nothing more than a very hot trickle of water. (tried multiple days) Very frustrating.

No toilets close to the tent pitch

Large slope of the tent pitch made it hard to sleep

Liked: Beautiful campsite. Lovely location. Very busy during the bank holiday weekend but still not a problem. Good value for money.

Did not use clubhouse / bar etc so can not comment on that...

Disliked: Shower blocks could do with something better than a mop to clean the floor with, maybe a rubber broom like in the caravan block so you can push the water rather than spreading it...

Liked: Everything. Nice reasonably level camping field close to toilet block and washing up facilities. Toilets and shower facilities although sometimes busy (peak times) were clean and spacious. Showers very warm, loved heated towel rails. Staff nice and friendly. Site well kept and tidy. Nice bar and clubhouse with reasonable prices. Relaxed quiet atmosphere in a beautiful location. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would like to return.

Disliked: Only small criticism if any, would be that on arrival, you could be given more information in the welcome folder with regards to location of waterpoints (not marked on layout map of site) and itinerary of activities.

Liked: everything. All the staff were very friendly and made you feel very welcome, the bar/club house served great food which was very reasonably priced and great evening entertainment. There were activitys for kids to do in the day but unfortunatly ours didn't get chance to do as we did other things. We will definately be going again.

Disliked: nothing.

Liked: The sevice in the bar i.e kevin was lovely he really looked after us and made us feel welcome. The entertainment on saturday night was really good we loved singinng along and having a boogie. The showers and toilets were clean and well maintained and the food we had on saturday night and sunday morning was a bigger improvement on the night and morning before hand.

Disliked: the breakfast menu was unfair, you had the traditional breakfast which had one sausage, one bacon, one egg, beans, tom, mushrrom for £4.95 and the kids breakfast was exactly the same just without the mushrooms for £2.95 the traditional one just seemed a bit pathetic to me. Also i found the activities not very well explained and a lil too expensive for waht you do and us been a big family can get quite expensive saying that we did have a go at one (archery) and we did have a laugh with the instructor (mike)

Liked: 1. The hot showers.
2. 15 minutes drive from Lyme Regis.
3. that it is really dog friendly rather than justpaying lipservice to being dog friendly.
4. The friendly staff, who really wanted to help!
5. The warm bar that served evening meals.

Disliked: The fact that they had a superb facility in the bar and clubhouse that did not offer a hot breakfast. Even if it was open between 08.00 and 10.00 and cooked the breakfast fresh, it would be so welcome on the last day camping, you could pack up the stove the night before.

Liked: i loved this place was so tranquil, the lodge was beautiful,clean and so cosey, the views spectacular with the most beautiful sunset, i cant wait for my next visit

Disliked: leaving the place

Liked: Peace and quiet.
Middle shower block with family shower - great for showering younger members of family.
Good location for exploring fantastic countryside and close enough to beach.
Restaurant very good value for money.
Management very friendly.

Disliked: Some people do not clean up after themselves, especially in wash up areas and ladies and family showers.
Not enough wash-up sinks.
Could do with a bit of cover over wash up areas for those rainy days!
