The Gaggle of Geese

Amazing stay in Birdie Shepherd Hut. Comfy clean furnishings. Hot, high pressure shower. Plenty of heat pumped out from bathroom radiator and log burner warmed up the hut in no time at all. Well insulated hut which stayed warm all night - much needed in rainy October! Welcome pack of Prosecco, bread, butter, local honey & delicious homemade biscuits was very well received. Very thoughtful touches throughout. Food at Gaggle of Geese was delicious and generous portion sizes.
Recommend visiting Cerne Abbas Giant, Abbey, Church & Wishing Well all worth visiting. Great food at New Inn pub in Cerne Abbas. Dorchester also worth a trip and the Thomas Hardy historical points. Monkey World was good to see Urangutans & Gorillas but the park was badly signposted and a few species including the Lemurs and Slow Loris were not available when we visited.

Great quiet little site. Good food at the pub, very friendly.

A very minor thing, but you could turn the PIR sensors on the toilet/shower lights to allow a bit more time before they turn off... It would save a lot of waving about in the dark when having a shower :)

This was a lovely campsite - beautiful grounds and facilities. Options for glamping of various forms. Run by the pub owners who were really friendly. Lots of interesting things to do - pitch & putt, kids play area in an old bus, goats, ice cream parlour, pizza, pub food and of course, good beer & cider. Free WiFi in the pub. A really relaxing and peaceful spot - will definitely return.

Needs toilet brushes but that’s a very minor issue

Pitch where you like. We stayed out of high season so the site was exceptionally quiet, the one shower available and toilets were clean. Good base for exploring surrounding area, fab walks direct from the site.

An elsan point would have been a bonus. Shame the pub wasn't open on the 2 out of 3 days we stayed.

Fantastic pub and beautiful clean campsite gardens! Everything you need and the hosts really welcoming and friendly. Great for walking and generally getting away from it all.

Nothing to say here!

Open spaces, local beers, friendly atmosphere and the children loved the fun bus. Also great music and stunning food.

Lovely quiet (non-electric) site with good hot-water facilities and nice pub for food or just a drink.

Excellent facilities, toilets and showers clean and plenty of them. Pub was too handy! Food good, beers and ciders all very good. We had a really good hike to Minterne House.

Great pub, amazing food, chilled vibe, play bus, farm animals, remote location. Clean campsite, undercover washing up area with hot water, plug sockets to charge phones and plug in coolboxes.

Showers were stone cold, toilets were a bit grubby at times but they were cleaned regularly.

Location at the field in the back of the beer garden. Quiet location (apart from a young child who clearly did not like life under a canvas!).but unique toilets, shower and sinks in converted horse box and little hut. Hot showers and power points and good washing up facilities too. Whilst the pub is not open every day, it was nice to eat and drink there one night.
Easy access to lots of lovely Dorset and Somerset locations.
