  • Pub-plads på to hektar i landsbyen Buckland Newton
  • En halv times kørsel fra strande og Jurakysten
  • Hjemmelavet mad og lokale ølsorter, samt grill og pizzaovn om sommeren
Walkers, riders, fishing folk, dog owners, family groups… all will want to take a gander at The Gaggle of Geese, a friendly country pub in the little village of Buckland Newton. This is a place that’s mighty well located for all sorts of Dorset days out – it’s in the Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty for all your country pursuits, 20 minutes’ drive from the historic market town of Dorchester and half an hour from the county’s stunning coastline. On top of that, those on family hols may like to note that a drive of less that 45 minutes offers up all sorts of ways to entertain/wear out the small sorts – animal parks, fossil hunting, watersports… It’s not all about location though – the pub’s a rather fine destination in its own right. Five fab acres of peaceful fields, an orchard and a pleasingly sizeable beer garden with a soft play double decker bus, ping pong shack, miniature golf, pygmy goats and a space for football make up the outside space. The inside’s all comfy corners and a warm welcome for all (nippers and dogs included) too. Up for a bit more activity? Skip over to the skittle alley or check the events list to see if there are any quiz nights, wine tastings or live music afternoons scheduled. And you’ll be needing eats and drinks of course... homemade pub classics can be washed down with local beers and ciders; summer nights often see action out at the barbecue shack and wood-fired pizza oven too. Barbecues and campfires are welcome if you’d rather go the DIY route.

Det siger kunderne

Meget populær, familievenlig campingplads med en fantastisk pub. Rene faciliteter, masser af børneaktiviteter (legebus, husdyr), smuk beliggenhed. Venligt personale. Nogle bemærkede lejlighedsvis støj og begrænset WiFi.

Areal til telt eller autocamper med græs uden elektricitet

Syntes om The playbus was so much fun on Thursday (became busy on weekend) and the pub is beautiful and both staff and management lovely- really caring and they treat staff really well - it’s a well run pub and campsite. Had bbq and fire too!

Having a campsite at a pub is a novelty and we could spend lots of time in the comfy seating and shade during the hot periods. We had a great time. There’s crazy golf too which looked fun but we didn’t do it.

This is a really lovely place and understandable that it gets busy because it’s such a fab place!

Syntes ikke om We booked two nights and left after first night as it became too busy on Friday (August weekend is peak I guess). It’s understandable to be busy but we had too many tents, kids and dogs roaming around our tent that we couldn’t relax as we’d hoped. It was a nice atmosphere but just wasn’t our scene.

There was no soap in three dispensers on first day but this was quickly attended to. One toilet was messy but I’m certain it was a small child who had been just before we took our kids (understandable). Other than that the toilets and showers felt clean and looked after.

It’s a great place and not a lot to dislike.

Syntes om Lovely quiet rural location with lots of walks available directly from the site. Nice pub & dining area to rear. Nice grassy camping area - levelling choks needed in some locations. Nice clean toilets, hot showers & washing up area. Staff very friendly.

Gaggle klokketelt (til 4 personer)

Syntes om The bell tents that we stayed in were great, they were well equipped and very clean!

Syntes ikke om We were listening to music, on a low volume, around 10pm all having a great time and then we were interrupted by a rude lady, that was a member of staff, who asked us to turn the music off completely, we completely understood that it was late and was happy to turn the music off but her manor was very rude and put a downer on the whole mood

Fra bestyreren: Sorry to hear that you felt our staff were rude to you. They had to intervene because other campers had complained about the noise your group were making. Out of respect to our neighbours and other campers we do ask for it to be a quiet camp from 10pm. This guidance is explained to all campers on arrival and on the displayed information. Disappointing that despite this, we still had to intervene. And obviously frustrating that you left a poor review - starkly different from the vast majority of others.

Cosy, relaxed campsite with lovely clean facilities and good food

Syntes om Loved the vibe on the campsite from immediately entering the pub to check-in, to being greeted by the lovely border-collie, to having a delicious roast in the pub on Sunday and right through til leaving on Monday. Lovely atmosphere and never too busy while we were there.

Syntes ikke om Nothing - all was fab!

Syntes om Blissful! We had the best break thanks to the fact that our child was so wholesomely entertained. Gleefully playing with other children, safely running between the pitch and the playbus. And to top it all, the site is nestled in the most beautiful rural location.

Syntes om A very friendly site behind a pub. Excellent facilities for camping well maintained facilities. Even though it was very busy, all campers were very respectful and it became quiet quite shortly after 10 o’clock.

Syntes ikke om Nothing really, but if you want an exceptionally quiet sight in the middle of nowhere this might not be the place for you. It is behind the pub which is excellent for us!

Syntes om The location is spot on and so much for the children to do; the fun bus, the goats, lots of space to run around, the orchard and spacious tent pitches. Not to mention the pub itself!

Lokale seværdigheder

Country wanderings aplenty await around here – there are heaps of places for walks both short and lengthy in the surrounding Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. A popular ramble from the pub is the four-mile route to the Cerne Abbas Giant (indeed a sizeable chap at 55 metres long – potential pub quiz answer...?) Horseback hacks can be had from several stables within half an hour, and there’s a fab coarse fishery with 10 lakes (10!) five minutes’ drive away. Want a bit more oomph in your outings? Head to Henley Hillbillies (five minutes’ drive) for days zooming about on quad bikes or in hovercrafts or souped-up Minis. Need nipper-pleasing days out? Take your (or more likely their) pick from The Dinosaur Museum (20 minutes), Monkey World (half an hour), the Tank Museum (half an hour), the Sea Life adventure park (40 minutes), Farmer Palmer’s Farm Park (40 minutes)… or head to the coast for beach days in Weymouth (40 minutes), watersports at Lulworth Cove (45 minutes) or fossil hunts in Kimmeridge (50 minutes).
