Positiv What a magical, enchanting and beautiful location! I spent two nights on my own down there to get away far from the madding crowd. And far from the madding crowd I was! I was warmly welcomed by my host and just on the way to the pitches, as if on cue, a jay, a green woodpecker and a buzzard flew by. I knew I was in the right place! The woodland is beautiful. The walk around the farm is stunning. Lack of light pollution meant I got a great view of the stars at night. Of course night time and woodland equals owls and the tawnies didn't disappoint! This pitches are so big that even if there were other campers, I could have still been 'alone' had I chosen to. However, if I was feeling more sociable, the barn space is spectacular - fairy lights everywhere but of course the facilities were first class! There are also opportunities to buy (from memory ) 'home grown' sausages; eggs; veg as well as cider from the farm's apples. During my stay I managed a super 6 (ish) mile circular walk starting at the Half Moon Pub (which, much to my utter disappointment, was closed when I got back so do check opening times). The toilet/shower block is like something out of Good Housekeeping magazine! Just make sure the shower head is pointing down on you... just in case you decide to hang your Dryrobe/towel on the back of the door... and it's pointing right that way! - lesson learned! My only regret was that I didn't buy and cider to bring home!

Positiv Beautiful campsite next to cider orchards, with sheep, pigs and chickens on site. We didn’t have the best weather but the barn area was great for staying dry. We were a group of friends in our 20s but the campsite also seemed very good for families. The campsite owners even got the wood burner going and offered to dry clothes for us in their tumble drier. We had amazing views of stars over night.

Negativ Could do with some additional toilets when the campsite is busier, there was sometimes a bit of a queue for the two toilets. Saying that the toilets and showers were very clean and well built.

Positiv Great camp site! Very peaceful with beautiful surroundings in a working farm. The children had a great time and enjoyed seeing the pigs, chickens etc and exploring the farm. The barn is very well appointed and ideal for inclement weather.

The 10 pitches are flat and well spaced apart with plenty of room. Fire pits are available. It's nice that vehicles stay away from tents in a separate car park so you don't get disturbed by halogen headlights or slamming doors in the middle of the night! Toilets and showers were very clean.

Great location close to Lyme Regis, Seaton and Chesil with plenty to do in the local area.

We especially enjoyed hiking in the surrounding hills - the Mangerton Mill Museum is a hidden gem a short hike away, well worth a visit!

Positiv Idyllic spot with loads of space between pitches. Smart loos and showers and free use of a barn with games and kitchen. We walked to the local pub for dinner and were made to feel very welcome. Took home some fab sausages and poly tunnel veg too.

Positiv We loved camping here, we stayed with some of our friends and their kids, and it was a perfect off the grid, family friendly peaceful location.
The dogs and pigs were definitely a firm favourite with the kids!
The wildlife was amazing we saw deer when we were walking around the grounds, there were plenty woodpeckers and pheasants, and the owls were chatting away to us in the evening’s.
The barn was a perfect location to hang out in when we had a rainy evening, and the selections of games provided kept the kids in our group entertained all evening!
The kitchen in the barn had everything you would need and was kept immaculately clean (as were the showers and toilets)
The owners provided us with a friendly welcome when we arrived and were extremely helpful, they gave us a tour of the site when we and told us if we needed anything they were always available.
We had a brilliant camping experience and will definitely return again next year!
