Newlands Holiday Park

Syntes om Very good clean facilities. The staff were friendly and welcoming. Only stayed one night but we had a meal in the restaurant and it exceeded our expectations. Delicious and well presented.

Syntes om Lovely views, really well laid out and spacious, facilities are great, especially for kids - playparks, softplay, indoor and outdoor pool (outside is very chilly, though good for an ice dip if you've been in the Sauna) clean facilities, dog park, good food options served all day (pizza and Panini's in-between breakfast and dinner service) evening entertainment in peak season, which we just missed, but just hopped on the bus to Bridport for an evening out. All in all loved it and will be back!

Syntes om Stunning views, good location with bus stop outside for Lyme Regis and Weymouth, had a good pitch with everything to hand . Very enjoyable stay.

Syntes ikke om Pitches for grass are mainly on a slope some are very steep, luckily mine wasn't. Would book a hard standing pitch next time.I think the toilet/shower block would benefit from a deep steam clean and reseal around some areas.

Syntes om Site was pleasant, toilet and shower facilities were clean. Good play area for the children and soft play as well.

Syntes ikke om They want you to pay extra for using the swimming pool when you have already paid for your holiday! Outrageous!

Syntes om Well laid out site with decent pitches.
Nice clubhouse/bar area with friendly staff and the food looked great. Unfortunately wasn't there long enough to try it !

Syntes ikke om Bar was absolutely packed out as BINGO was still on past 9pm on Friday night. Struggled to get a seat as we arrived late.
Entertainment could do with a upgrade.

Syntes om Lovely campsite, friendly staff.
Kids loved the indoor pool, Softplay area and spent most of their time at the park.
Shower/toilet block was good. 20 minute walk to Charmouth beach. Dog friendly in conservatory area and the roast was lovely.

Syntes ikke om Some pitches are on a slight hill, but can't be helped.
Toilet block became dirty as the day went on.
Partner said the water pressure wasn't great in the male shower block.

Syntes om We liked the cosy, clean and comfortable camping pod, the views across the bay and hills, the park's quiet and easy going atmosphere, and facilities.

Syntes ikke om Not much to dislike - having to pay extra for the pool was a bit annoying, and it is not really a 'short stroll' to the beach as advertised. It took us about half an hour from our pitch.

Syntes om This was our second stay and the convenient facilities enticed us back.

Swimming pool on site (not free, booking required, £3.50pp when we visited with under 2s free). There is a small jaccuzi and sauna, unisex changing facilities and an indoor and outdoor pool. The outdoor pool also has a small toddler splash/play area, though it was a bit too cold to use it during our visit.

A small soft play on site (free, access with code from reception).

Large outdoor play area, with equipment for toddlers and older children.

There's a small coin-operated launderette (2 washers, 2 dryers).

Friendly reception staff on check-in.

We were given a handy map of the site upon check-in.

Easy access to the main road by car.

Easy access to Charmouth by car, bus or on foot.

There's a nice walk up to Stonebarrow if you don't mind the steep hill.

A convenient, if overpriced, Spar shop on site.

The views are beautiful on a clear day.

At night, when it's clear, you can see so many stars.

Syntes ikke om Unfortunately, we are unlikely to be returning for a third stay. This is because:

Our pitch was very sloped, so we all slid down in the tent overnight.

The pitch itself was very stony and it was hard to get the tent pegs in without bending them.

The non-electric pitches were not clearly defined and the staff member was squeezing people in anywhere he could, meaning the pitches were very cramped. We stayed last summer and it was far more organised. It felt like the owners had overbooked the site this year.

The facilities need updating, cleaning and repairing - the unisex/family cubicles were locked (and clearly had been for some time judging by the cobwebs on the doors) which is inconvenient for parents with opposite-sex children, the single-sex facilities were frequently smelly and dirty with clogged toilets. Again, last year these were in much better condition. I did see a few cleaning and maintenance staff but it felt like more staff and/or more frequent cleanings were required to cope with how busy the site was.

The push taps everywhere are hard for children to operate, as are the stiff flush buttons in the toilets.

The pool needs a lifeguard on duty, or at least a staff member, to reduce inconsiderate behaviour.

The wash up station was dirty and felt cramped because some sinks were unusable. The push taps are inconvenient for washing large items. The sinks have no plugs so bowls are required if you don't want to be continually pressing the taps.

There are not enough bins around site.
