Sea Barn Farm Camping Park

Liked Het fantastische uitzicht, dat is echt ongeëvenaard. We hadden een heel grote plaats met uitzicht op zee. De zonsondergang is spectaculair. Zeer rustig op de camping. Je hebt het gevoel heel afgelegen te zijn naar het is slechts een kwartiertje rijden naar Weymouth. Er is heel veel te doen. Door het uitzicht is dit een absolute aanrader.

Disliked Het oude sanitair blok. Het nieuwe sanitair aan het begin van de camping is waarschijnlijk mooi maar douchen in het oude blok is eigenlijk niet te doen. Het water duurde lang voordat het doorkwam en daarna was het te heet. Het was wel schoon maar slecht onderhouden.

Liked Pitch size

Disliked Lots of old facilities, proximity to the water but not allowed to use it. Very strict rules, families won’t want that.

From the manager: We are situated with fabulous views over the Fleet nature reserve and English Channel
We advertise wonderful walks and views. We do not advertise that there is swimming near the park. The nearest swimming beach is 5 miles away in Weymouth.

The Fleet Nature reserve is an area of Special Scientific Interest an is owned and operated by the Ilchester Estate. Access to the foreshore is not permitted to preserve the wildlife.
Also it is not safe to enter the water due to tidal flow and soft mud.

Our park rules are very standard across most respectful camping parks for the safety and enjoy of all our guest. They are all common sense when being respectful to other people and their property.

Liked Flat ground, spacious, well laid out, good facilities.
Beautiful scenery with walks.

Disliked Nothing.

The word No is often confused with poor customer service. "No" is a reasonable response to a question. "No" is not bad customer service. It is a service provider doing there job for the enjoyment of all our guest. The word "No" often gets us a one star rating.
Our guests who do not ask unreasonable questions, usually give us a 9 or a 10. Such is life....

Liked Clean facilities, peaceful site.

Disliked Check the rules before you pitch your tent! We had to move ours because we hadn’t read the rules first.

Liked Wir waren 4 Nächte auf dem Platz. Es war relativ wenig los, deshalb war es sehr angenehm ruhig. Das große Waschhaus war neu und schön, das kleinere etwas älter, aber alles sauber. Wir sind mit dem Rad nach Weymouth gefahren, der Strand und der Hafen mit seinen Pubs waren toll.

Liked The view from our pitch was breathtaking. The site was well kept and the showers and toilets were spotless. The shower block in the lower section away from the entrance was old fashioned but it made me feel nostalgic and I loved that. I loved the place!

Disliked Nothing- I didn’t find the staff a problem at all they were very nice and polite- there are rules but that’s probably why the site runs so smoothly.

Liked A great little, hidden gem with beautiful, breath-taking views.
On arrival documents were easy to obtain and locate our pitch. All information on the site was well explained and very informative .

Disliked Despite the showering/toilet facilities being super clean they were quite dated, however this didn't impact or hinder our stay.

Liked Clean toilets and showers.

Disliked Location, it is not too far to the beach by car (around 20 minutes) but walking distance is far, there is no shops, no bar or anything like that, something what looks like a long beach is actually a lagoon and there's no access to it ( it is only from the other camp site). Before I booked it showed me only 6 pitches for a tent available for the weekend. It is a huge camping site and it was nearly empty for the whole weekend, I don't understand why it shows just a few available. The woman at " reception" had to drop her cigarette to give us directions, unclear and moody😳 but hey, £56 for 2 nights in the middle of nowhere it's a bargain 😅🫢🥴 this place didn't meet my expectations, it should be more information available on the internet about the place, distances to any amenities to give more overlook before someone will pick this place and waits the time over there.

From the manager: So sorry your did not enjoy your stay. Wide open spaces are not for everybody. We think the park description describes what it is. A beautiful place in the countryside with fabulous views and links to beautiful walks. There is no claim that there is a swimming beach, just great views and walk to the coast.

“Need a good dose of fresh Dorset air? You'll get exactly that at Sea Barn Farm Camping Park, 15 minutes’ drive from Weymouth – along with spectacular views of Fleet Lagoon, Lyme Bay, Chesil Bank and the Isle of Portland straight from the pitches. In fact, the play area has probably one of the best views along the Dorset coastline – and if you get your timings right of an evening, you’ll hopefully also witness stunning sunsets over the sea.

This 11-acre holiday park is part of a beef and cereal farm with land running right down to Fleet Lagoon, an internationally protected nature reserve and wildfowl haven. It’s about 10 minutes’ walk to the lagoon and the South West Coast Path along the specially created farm walk, which passes a wildlife habitat for bees and birds (please keep any dogs on a lead when on the trail). “
