Electric hardstanding touring pitch (lake view)
Liked: Everything, beautiful setting, with the cleanest facilities I've come across. Quiet site, a lot of regulars and private pitches. If you just want to relax, walks in the woods, round the lake or just sit back and watch the wildlife.
Disliked: That I didn't stay longer!! Shop doesn't stock a big range. WiFi can be a bit hit and miss depending where you are on site!

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch (large)
Liked: Lovely friendly site Phil and Mandy were so helpful and had good knowledge of fishing and the area in general. Fishing was great with a selection of pools for beginners and more experienced anglers. Showers were clean and hot. A little shop selling basic things which was helpful. Great walking routes through the woodland areas.

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: This site is immaculately kept by very kind, welcoming hosts. All the guests were lovely to our children who really enjoyed the fishing. The campsite is also in a great location for exploring Cerne Abbas which was a real highlight for me. We were in a tent and there was ample room on the pitch which was flat with easy access to electric, water and not far at all from the clean facilities. Beautiful little woodland loop to walk the dog in with dog waste bins provided. We will be back!
Disliked: Nothing

Liked: The fishing very friendly people
Disliked: When it rained the water ran into our awning mainly because the drain wasn't able to cope with the amount of water and the bad slope on the site toilets and showers very dated I thought they would of been free due to it costing so much unable to get phone signal or wi fi
