Penn Farm Campsite

Líbí se Cheap, Beautiful, quiet, lots of space

Nelíbí se Maybe having a very small stand for basics like toothpaste, bbq bits etc but that’s just because it crossed my mind during the stay.

Líbí se Lovely clean facilities.
Bottom field is a lovely open site but the way the grass has been cut makes for it not feeling like a totally open field that people camp around the edges of.
There were only 2 other campers there when we stayed the mid week June night.
Not having to be off site in the morning meant we could do an early start to appreciate low tide and fossil hunting before returning to pack away the tent.

Líbí se We love Penn farm. Its our second stay. What we love is the views, the secluded spots for the tent, the open space, people are not on top of each other. The new toilet block is top notch for being cleaned regularly, same as the sink area, we love that parts are bring left for wildlife. Beautiful kept site, its such a relaxing laid back site.

Nelíbí se None

Líbí se Nice and uncomplicated, picknick benches at every pitch. Great view from some pitches, secluded corners for other pitches.

Nelíbí se No really flat pitches on the field - can be amended with wedges though, if you're travelling with a camper van.

Líbí se Nice facilities

Nelíbí se We stayed during the second week of June with a dog and the amount of ticks was unreal. Every time the dog went outside to go for a walk she’d return covered in ticks, at least one each walk. She’s given medication to repel ticks and they still landed on her. We resorted to not allowing her near long grass and the ticks still persisted. What was supposed to be a five night holiday turned into a two night holiday after she kept being repetitively bitten by ticks (we removed approx 4 in the 2 nights we stayed). I’ve been camping for many many years and I’ve never experienced this volume of ticks before.
As a side note you can also hear the road despite reviews saying it’s peaceful and you can’t hear the road, it’s untrue there’s a fair amount of road noise.

Od správce: Glad you enjoyed our facilities.
The rest of your review seemed strange and unfair.
You were pre-warned that ticks are active in SW England in the pre-arrival email. Nobody else has mentioned ticks and everyone living locally has dogs as we do with no problems (I suggest you buy a better quality tick repellent). Anyway there's nothing else anyone can do.
With regard to road noise it's unusual to get wind from the road direction and also there's nothing we can do to change the direction.
PLEASE read all other reviews because this one is unfair.

Líbí se It is a peaceful and well organised campsite super well situated near Charmouth and Lyme Regis beaches.
We particularly appreciated the very clean toilets and shower as well as the charging hut (a godsend for us non electric pitch hirers) with a fridge/freezer option. I have noticed few people left behind reading books so a mini reading library could also be a cute bonus to this well established and well looked after campsite. We will be back.
