Positiv Unbelievably peaceful! So quiet, with so many polite, friendly and respectful campers. Really well situated - you’re less than 10 minutes from Dancing Ledge. Really unique!

Negativ Really the only thing I could say is that the site is very undulating. Be sure to bring the chocks for your vehicle.

Positiv Plenty of space to pitch the tent. Decent quality food from the Food Shack. Friendly staff and Annabel always willing to help.
Very close to the 'Swanage Railway' station for an easy trip into Swanage or Corfe Castle.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Good morning, we are very sorry to hear that you had such a bad experience. This is most unusual.

We do understand that the eco loos are not to everyone’s taste! We do clean and sanitise them at least three times a day. Unfortunately, the very hot weather does make a difference. However, they are due to be emptied today. Concerning their design, that is a typically how eco loos look. They aren’t a ‘pretty sight,’ however, we would rather be eco conscious than use portable toilets which definitely get stinkier! We are a good value campsite which is open 60 days a year so it doesn’t warrant a large block of toilet cubicles as the field goes back to nature for the rest of the year (we also wouldn’t be able to get planning permission for that).

We are sorry to hear that you thought that the showers were bad. Again, they do get checked regularly and are free to use. They are just of a simple design, but then again we are a basic campsite valuing an outdoorsy experience.

In regard to the Snack Shack this is very disappointing. We have recently been awarded a food hygiene rating of 5, which we believe is very true to our practices in the kitchen. This is also surprising as we have many very positive reviews surrounding the Snack Shack and other facilities.

We are a family-run campsite and put a lot of care into the things we do. If you had any questions or concerns at the time we would have been very happy to help.
