Liked: Great site very well kept and managed. Staff were friendly and helpful.
Pitches were of a good size level and not too crowded in. Facilities were heated, clean and to a high standard. Showers were hot and powerful and the dishwashing area again was to a high standard with all you need.
Check in was done online and your pitch allocation done before you arrive with automatic access using ANPR to the site.
Although just off the main road the site at night was lovely and quiet farm shop and care just over the road were excellent as was the village pub a few minutes walk away.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch (semi-serviced, small)
Liked: Met on arrival by a cheerful lady on reception ( sorry didn’t catch her name ) who welcomed us to the site, gave us a booklet for the site with vital information. Sadly we forgot our dog leads, the lady bent over backwards to help us find a spare lead to tide us over till we could get to the shops the next day!
The site was beautiful, very well laid out, toilet facilities were spotless along with the dishwashing facilities plus the additional bonus of WiFi.
The site was spotless! We enjoyed it so much we wanted to extend our stay but sadly due to work commitments had to return home.
Dog walking field was easily accessible, again very clean with a bin on exit/arrival.
The vending machines, what a brilliant idea, selection of fresh milk/shakes hot coffee, a vending machine for essentials ie Bread, freshly squeezed Orange Juice Machine and Ice Cream!
Perfect position for getting around, approx 15 minute drive to Weymouth.
We would highly recommend this site and will be returning here again whenever we visit South Dorset.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch (medium, semi-serviced)
Liked: The facilities were close by, and regularly attended. The convenience and safety aspect of automatic car reg barriers for on site off site entry & exit. The location was nearby the shops and lots of attractions.
Disliked: The site feels a bit unfriendly being so close to neighbours, as it was packed in, this made manoeuvring and relaxing a little tricky.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for your review and glad you thought it was a nice spot to stay - sorry to hear you felt a bit close to your neighbours. The pitches are appropriately spaced and Easter weekend is a busy time of year for us. Glad to see that you would visit again, if you favour a particular area of the campsite please let us know when rebooking and we will be happy to accommodate.
