Liked: Exceptional clean toilets and showers, fabulous location, wonderful pub just a couple minutes walk away.
Disliked: Too much of a little city feel to this campsite for our liking . With everything neatly contained and placed in tidy little rows and positions. And far too much light pollution at night , felt like 24 hr daylight ! Made it difficult to sleep Also entry is gained by a high security ANPR prison style sinking bollard system .. really ?! …lol
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for your kind review. We are sorry that you thought it was too much of a little city feel to the campsite. Our campsite has been carefully laid for the welfare of all our customers taking into account fire and health and safely regulations. Also, the ANPR is there for the security of our customers and to facilitate 24 hour entrance/exit. We hope that you change your mind and visit us again.

Liked: Great first stay at Portesham farm. Friendly and informative staff provided a great welcome . It was our first tryout of our BW Caravelle and awning and couldn’t have picked a better site. The facilities were clean and well maintained. The vending shop is a great idea and the dog exercise field was great for Scout. Will definitely be returning for another longer stay.
Disliked: Nothing
