Unpowered grass tent, campervan or trailer tent site
Liked: plenty of space, the managers did all they could with what they had. They did not overcharge on items they had for sale and there was plenty of variety. A little of everything just incase. Close enough to Smugglers Inn to walk although if you want to go anywhere else you would need transport as the road to the village and beyond is quite busy for walking down. there is a tea shop 150m to the left of the site.
Disliked: the water for washing up and washing/shaving was cold, We could not work out the lighting but weren't too worried as did not need it.

Unpowered grass tent, campervan or trailer tent site
Liked: The countryside.
Disliked: The grass was long, ground extremely lumpy and difficult to pitch a tent. Uneven ground.
The site was in a lovely location but it was basically a field rather than a tailored site.

From the manager: we are sorry our site was not for you.the period we open in may for the half term week we keep the grass longer ,as it is what is known as meadow pasture,there are many wild flowers which we like the pollenators to do there job. we have had one of the driest springs on record so consequently the ground is harder than usual.when we re open at the end of june the grass is cut to our normal length.
Will return for sure. 2 fun nights camping with a toddler.

Liked: Warm welcome, very laid back and lots of space. Lots of family groups of site but all very respectful of each other. Compared with other sites in Weymouth very reasonable.
Disliked: Toilets and shower block basic. Site is on a hill but has lots of flat spaces.

Unpowered grass tent, campervan or trailer tent site
Liked: The wide open space was great, the welcome was friendly and helpful
Easy access to a bus stop and a simple stall selling basics.
Toilet block was clean and well stocked.
Disliked: Can be a little bit uneven and boggy in wet weather. The showers just had a curtain rather than a lockable door so I passed on that. Only one hot water tap so there was a (really friendly) queue to wash up

Liked: Great site, pitch where you want, good location by the sea and within walking distance to The Smugglers Inn through fields then the village. Took everything with us for the 4 nights we were there, but there is a Sainsbury’s just over a mile away and a bus stop outside that went to Weymouth.
