Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked: Campsite was clean , tidy and very welcoming. It was nice being on a small campsite.
Disliked: It was very noisy with traffic being next to a busy main road but after 3 nights we didn’t take any notice of it! The shower wasn’t very good as it was difficult to get the temperature right and there wasn’t very good water pressure.

Liked: Its nice quiet site. Toilets were clean.

Liked: Small camp site, everything you need, really friendly people on site, the managers and the owner were exceptionally friendly, we will be staying here again and again as it’s a perfect stop for us to stay whilst visiting family in Dorset.
Disliked: The road runs parallel and is busy but you get used to the traffic, the little site and the people far outweigh it.
