Negativ Nothing. So lovely.

Positiv I took my 6 year old grandson for a fishing trip to Portland, we arrived on the friday evening for a two night stay, the site is in a stunning location, you can lay in your tent and hear the crashing waves, there is a path right along the sea edge which is a stunning coastal walk, the sunrise over towards Lulworth is beautiful.

Negativ This site is very basic for facilities but that is how it is advertised, there is a water stand pipe, recylcling facilities and around 6-7 Portaloos, As i say come with that in mind and there will be no disappointment.

Positiv Everything, such easy walks around the island from the campsite. Family who run were very homely and lovely. Will returned every year 🤞🤞🤞🤞

Positiv The ocean view and easy access to the costal walk. Rubbish bins to get rid of rubbish, enough port-a-loos, however the could do with a empty every 2 to 3 days when there are a lot of people. The lady and gentleman greeting you as you arrive are friendly and helpful if you have any questions. Fires allowed but be mindful of wind. Dogs allowed as well.

Negativ There are markings where you are supposed to park or pitch, which is great for campervans but not so for larger tents for bigger families who need more room. Suggestion would be to have most campervans use the rural camping site across the road. Leave the other site free for mostly tents to pitch where they like.

Positiv The price, the location, the view

Negativ The neighbouring tent ⛺️ which set up camp next us a few hours after we settled had 5 dogs and 3 children, they were noisy and disrespectful of our own space, we felt our bit of privacy was completely violated by some uncivilised thugs. Sadly not a good experience and will not return as I realised we need a campsite which provides more space per pitch. A shame really as it wasn’t a busy day and there was plenty of space for them to camp elsewhere on site.

Vom Platzbetreiber: So sorry you didn't have a good experience.
Please in future if you could let us know of any issues so we can sort it.

Positiv Great location, peaceful with good access to the bill and its amazing walks.

Negativ The portaloo toilets are a problem, the chemical flushes don’t always work, some campers don’t clear up their own mess and they are not sanitised properly. The entrance to the site, has a steep turn and damaged concrete drive making it tricky for larger camper vans or motor homes to get in and out. The site signage at the entrance makes it difficult to see traffic coming from the left.

Positiv Location right by the sea and walking distance from the lighthouse, old quarry etc is fantastic.

Small site so can't get overly busy, easy to get to, quite easy to get into and park (though the access is quite steep).

Friendly and chilled out.

Negativ Facilities are extremely basic. This was expected but nevertheless - it's not a highlight. Running water is one tap for the site, no washing up facilities, portaloos only which are as to be expected (pretty grim). Also, no general waste bins, just food waste.

Pitches are pretty small (4 X 9 ish) including parking so you might need to get creative and hope your neighbours haven't got a big tent either.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Thanks for your feedback back, yes the pitch are 9x4. But we only advertise our pitch as 3x3 for tent.
And 3x5 for vans. Which you know when you booked our site. So when are pitchs are 9x4 it's more than adequate.
There is a general rubbish, but we want to recycle as must as possible that's why there is recycling for both metal, cardboard and plastic.
Also we don't offer washing up facilities so why would you expect it ?
Like we tell anyone who asked we are limited on what we can provide due to us being in a natural beauty area full of restrictions.

Positiv Great location - views over the sea easy access the the coastal path, lovely and quiet

Negativ The portaloos were not a nice experience,
