Vom Platzbetreiber: Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, we're delighted to hear you enjoyed your stay and would come back. That really does mean the world to everyone here at Sweet Hill Farm.

We very much hope to welcome you back at Sweet Hill again :)

Positiv Flat field. No frills. Lovely view of the sea and the top of Portland bill lighthouse.
There were families playing cricket when we arrived so a lovely friendly feel.
The cafe on site is a real bonus.
Lovely friendly welcome from staff member on arrival at the cafe.

Negativ Nothing. Although the approach to the girls with construction materials and mounds of earth isn’t the prettiest, it didn’t matter to us.
I didn’t visit the portaloos as I chose to use my loo in the van. My husband said there were no lights in the loos, so we would recommend this is added to avoid dropping a torch or phone down the portaloo!
We also didn’t shower, partly as there was a cost. I think showers should be included in the camping rates, as it was slightly expensive for a basic field with a portaloo but I’m sure you are paying for the great location.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Hello Jo

Thank you so much for this wonderfully detailed and thoughtful review. It’s nice to hear that the view, the atmosphere and the café all made such a positive impression, and that the friendly game of cricket gave you a lovely welcome to the site. That kind of spontaneous community spirit is exactly what Sweet Hill Farm is all about.

We're also glad to hear the approach to the site didn't detract too much from your overall experience. We are currently working on ongoing improvements to the site and we very much appreciate your patience and understanding during this time as we can't wait for guests to see the finished results!

Thank you for the very practical suggestion regarding lighting in the portaloos, it's a brilliant point and we'll certainly be looking into this as we wait for planning permission to build a permanent toilet block and we're grateful you took the time to flag it.

Regarding the shower charge, we completely understand your perspective and appreciate you raising it so fairly and honestly. The small charge helps us to maintain the hot water and upkeep of the facilities, though we always take feedback on pricing seriously and will continue to review how we can offer the best possible value for our guests.

We very much hope to welcome you and your husband back to Sweet Hill Farm again

Positiv Will definitely be returning- views were great, nice chill vibe to the campsite. Toilets were clean and the cafe was delicious for breakfast! Amazing place to stay to reach Battleship and Blacknor climbing area

Vom Platzbetreiber: Thank you so much for this review, we're absolutely delighted to hear you'll be returning :)

We're so pleased the views, the atmosphere and the facilities all hit the mark during your stay. That relaxed vibe is something we're very passionate about and it's lovely to hear it came through so naturally. We're also thrilled you liked the café as there's nothing quite like a delicious breakfast to set you up for a day on the cliffs! Having Battleship and Blacknor right on the doorstep is pretty hard to beat. We love that the site works so well as a base for getting out and exploring the area.

We very much look forward to welcoming you back, see you next time!

Positiv Great location lovely walk along coastal path from there.

Great little coffee/snack hut where you check in

Reasonable price for location

Did not use loos or shower as I have a Moho

Negativ The very sharp ingress/egress on to a hill was a tad tricky as road was sandy/gritty hard to see to turn and other drivers had no dang patience to let me out.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Hello Jane

Thank you so much for this lovely review! We're delighted to hear the journey to us was straightforward; we know that getting to a campsite without any stressful narrow lanes makes such a difference to the start of a trip. It's also wonderful to hear you enjoyed the peace and quiet, the walks and that our team made you feel so welcome on arrival.

We hope to see you back at Sweet Hill Farm again very soon!

Positiv Location, simplicity of booking and checking in, lovely showers, great café, spacious pitches, ample portaloo’s, superb views, nice people, great wildlife and birds, farm vibe, not overcrowded, peaceful.

Negativ The toilets can get a bit smelly when busy, but they are cleaned regularly.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Hey Paul

What a wonderful review, thank you so much. We're so pleased that so many aspects of Sweet Hill Farm hit the mark for you; from the booking process right through to checking in, the showers, the café, the views and the wildlife. It's lovely to know that the experience felt just as we'd hope.

We appreciate your honest and fair comments about the toilets. Portaloos during busy periods can of course present a challenge, and whilst our team clean them regularly throughout the day, we completely understand that on particularly busy spells they may not always be at their best. It's something we continue to monitor closely and take seriously, in the future we will have a permanent toilet block.

Thank you again for such a generous review and for taking the time to share your experience so fully.

We very much hope to welcome you back to Sweet Hill Farm again :)

Positiv Friendly, clean, tidy, beautiful views
Amazing smoothies

Sweet Hill Farm

Positiv loved the whole area. Peace and quiet and getting back to nature. showers were fab and the little cafe was great as were the staff . we will be back.

Negativ The toilets were at times a bit smelly but mostly they were ok. Definately need to bring own loo roll just in case.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Thank you so much for this review, we're absolutely delighted to hear you'll be back!

It's so lovely to know you were able to switch off, embrace the peace and quiet and enjoy everything the natural surroundings have to offer, that sense of getting back to nature is exactly what Sweet Hill Farm is all about. We're also thrilled to hear the showers, the café and our team all made such a positive impression. We'll be sure to pass your kind words on to everyone :)

Thank you for your honest and fair feedback on the toilets. Portable facilities during busier periods can occasionally present a challenge with odour, and whilst our team clean and check them regularly throughout the day, we completely understand it isn't always perfect. Your tip about bringing loo roll is a great one and well worth mentioning, we tend to top up the toilet rolls in the mornings and during the afternoon clean, however, we'd always recommend guests pack their own just in case.

We very much look forward to welcoming you back to Sweet Hill Farm, see you soon!

Positiv Great site for wild camping. Amazing views. Plenty of space. Lovely walks directly from the site. Very nice staff.
We would definitely stay there again

Negativ No availability to empty toilet but we did know this in advance.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Hello Deborah,

What a lovely review, thank you so much! We're absolutely thrilled to hear you'd stay again :)

We're so pleased the site ticked so many boxes for you; the views, the space and the walks right on the doorstep.

Thank you also for your understanding regarding the toilet emptying facilities. We appreciate that it isn't something we're currently able to offer on site, and we're glad this was communicated clearly in advance so it didn't come as a surprise during your stay.

We look forward to welcoming you back to Sweet Hill Farm, see you next time!

Positiv Brilliant pitch, great breakfast and coffee.
