Positiv Close to Swanage easy access route. Pitch was ok quite level.

Negativ What could be a very nice site is in fact like trying sleeping on the M5. People turning up as late as 22.30hrs and pitching a tent, to the constant traffic of people coming to and frow late into the night, the speed limit as most sites is 5 mph how ever most people read this as a lot higher. The toilets were clean on one day of the 3 the cleaner told us she was on her own hence the other 2 days they were filthy. The site advertised shop on site, clearly been closed for some time(photos). The Elsan nearest to us was next to the food outlet!! Well dirty old caravan. The next Elsan point was too far to carry to, and that was all we could find for approximately 100 users!! They were both in a poor dirty condition. One point we think was the owner who spent most of his time driving up and down the dusty road in his black Range Rover on the phone hopefully he was security!! Not! More like a Traveler's site than camp site, then we were handed a flyer at 18.00 stating that there will be a DJ session starting at 20.00hrs oh Great boom boom boom until 22.30 ish.All this for £46.00 per night feel ripped off.

Positiv Quite small park with about 20 pitches of a good size. It reasonably close to main town and small village just down the road.

Negativ There is No tv signal, and the toilets are very small, but clean.

Positiv Everything the site is quite close to a rat run road but is quiet at night. The toilets are amazing.

Negativ Needs more water fill up point

Vom Platzbetreiber: Thank you for your review. Soo good to hear you enjoyed your stay. The road was very busy this last weekend with the Tropical pressure festival on locally. Good it din't disturb you at night, it is generally very quiet then. Re the water points they are in each camping area so are within 30m of every pitch. looking at your pitch you had a point about 7 to 8 m to your left. Sorry if it wasn't made clear to you Regards Richard

Positiv Lovely location

Negativ The pitches are very uneven and nearly impossible to level a Motorhome. The toilet block is poor and too small for the amount of people. There are no rubbish bins on the lower field. The owner has a large house on the edge of lower filed and had a party on the Friday so no sleep for the campers, on the Saturday one of the letting cottages on the edge also had a party site rules quite after 10.00PM this dose not happen.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Dear Peter, Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased to read that you appreciated the views, the quiet location, and found our staff helpful. However, we would like to clarify a few points, as several of your comments do not reflect the actual situation on site. During your stay, there were a total of seven adults on the campsite, including yourselves. Our sanitary facilities include four showers and five toilets, which is more than sufficient for this level of occupancy. For this reason, we find the remark about insufficient facilities difficult to understand. Regarding the chemical disposal point, there is a proper rinsing facility with a sufficiently long water hose situated right beside it. We therefore do not recognise the issue described. We are also surprised by the low scores for cleanliness and customer service. As you mentioned yourself, our staff was helpful, and we maintain strict cleaning routines with multiple thorough cleanings per day. No concerns were raised during your stay, and no irregularities were observed. Had anything not been up to standard, we would have appreciated the opportunity to address it immediately. As for WiFi and the surrounding area: we do not advertise WiFi on the pitches, and our campsite is clearly presented as a quiet, rural location in a small mountain village. This setting is intentionally aimed at guests seeking peace, nature, and outdoor activities. We provide a wide range of walking, cycling, and driving routes free of charge, which many of our guests greatly enjoy. It seems that our campsite may not have aligned with your personal expectations. While we regret that we did not fully meet them, we believe this reflects a mismatch in preferences rather than shortcomings in the facilities or services provided. Kind regards, Jelle & Dennis

Positiv Great site direct access to the canal MIDI close to the coast. Bar and small restaurant at site was good.

Negativ Stated turn up at any time, we did and reception was closed! But did get someone to let us in.

Positiv Large flat site well within reach of beaches etc, when we stayed none of the park’s amenities were open, so can’t comment on them.

Negativ Nothing open on site! Not even the shop. To many side door vans with the normal noisy door slamming.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Hi thank you for your review Unfortunately our facilities such as bar shop are seasonal and will be open from Easter 2026. We hope to see you again. Kind wishes Becky

Positiv Lovely quiet site, within lovely pool area the chateau wasn’t open to the public this was a shame

Negativ The shop wasn’t really a shop! The snack bar wasn’t open, the showers and toilet block could do with updating

Positiv Great location, within a wooded area, pool is lovely. The chateau is not open.

Negativ Poor on site shop, no snack bar or restaurant. Toilets and showers need a face lift.

Positiv The area is good with local beach bars and restaurants near by.

Negativ The site is a mess, the pitches are like a farmer’s field, the electric hook ups are mostly long reel extension leads. There are a lot of shacks( holiday sheds) with kids running riot, very noisy until late, if you have a large Motorhome forget it.

Positiv Lovely site very clean, the toilet and shower block especially, good all round facility's. Good level pitches. Very nice staff.

Negativ little noisy from main road just out outside the site, and a knew one for us Planes and helicopters taking off and landing throughout the day!! We feel the price was a little high bearing that in mind.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Dear Peter, Thank you very much for your recent review and for choosing to stay with us in May. We're really pleased to hear you found the site clean and well-kept, especially the toilet and shower facilities, and that you appreciated the level pitches and the friendliness of our team. We do understand your comments regarding the road and occasional air traffic noise. Our location is clearly shown on the website, so we hope guests are aware of the surroundings before booking. That said, one of the advantages of our position is the excellent transport links, including a 24-hour bus service right outside the gate with direct routes to both Cheltenham and Gloucester - a convenience many of our guests really value. Best Wishes, The Briarfields Team

Positiv Beautiful park around a lake great for cycling, lovely well kept pitches.

Negativ No WiFi on pitches, long way to toilet block.

Positiv Holiday park as a whole is great. However the so called premium pitches are not very level we use all our ramps and could not level. They have quite strict rules on what type of van you have but not in forced we were woken twice in middle of the night by people staring engine’s we assume for extra heating, also people with noisy diesel heaters in vans with very noisy side slide door’s slamming all the time.

Negativ Pitches not level, noise at night, builders van not suited for the site, people use I h diesel heaters, ehicle moving around maybe leaving at 3am.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the park overall and appreciate your feedback regarding the premium pitches and the issues you encountered during your stay. We take all concerns seriously and will review the pitch levels to ensure they meet the standards our guests expect. We’re also sorry to hear about the noise disturbances during the night, and we will look into how we can better address this to ensure a peaceful environment for everyone. Your feedback is valuable, and we’re committed to improving the experience for all of our guests.

Positiv Very tidy and clean pitch very level great location loads of local information from owners.

Negativ Road noise under stand you can’t do anything about that however maybe worth mentioning in the site description.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Thank you for the review, Peter. We are glad you found everything clean and are happy with everything within our control. We are next to a road but unfortunately the road is mentioned in quite a few reviews so most people are aware prior to booking.
