Super clean, well-kept park with spacious, flat spots. Modern, spotless facilities with great showers. Easy automated entry, friendly staff create a safe, welcoming vibe. Handy spot for local shops, pubs, Jurassic Coast, good buses. 24hr vending a bonus. Highly recommended for a chill, great stay – many keen to come back.

Powered grass site (medium)
Liked A clean well manicured site with good modern facilities. Walking distance to local pub, cafe and village facilities.
Excellent well drained pitch, which despite torrential, continuous overnight thunder rain rained dry. Plenty of electricity posts with extension cabling, and water posts. Well maintained showers and toilet facilities, and motorhome services.
We liked it as an overnight stay.
Disliked Nothing to dislike.

Powered grass site
Liked We stayed here for our first ever camping trip, and we all love it! The vending machines were a great bonus, the facilities were clean 24 hours a day and my kids felt really comfortable here. The reception staff were amazing whenever I needed advice and I was sent an email before arrival for local food areas, which we tried all of, 10/10!! We will be back next year!!

Great shop
Friendly, helpful staff

Playground for the children

Disliked How close the pitches were, sardines comes to mind!
No privacy, more hedges and greenery required
Too many lights, one on each pitch so very light at night

From the manager: Many thanks for your review and that you liked a lot of things about your stay at the campsite. We hope that you will change your mind about visiting again and stay on a different part of the campsite and pitch that you would prefer.

Powered grass site (medium)
Liked Clean toilet and shower facilities, warm showers, quiet campsite. Coffee machine was a treat in the morning.
Disliked We camped with our kids and they would have enjoyed more play facilities & activities around the site.

From the manager: Many thanks for your review comments and recommendation. We hope you visit again in the future.
Well managed, but missing its soul.
Powered grass site (medium)
Liked The facilities (showers, toilets etc) were of very good quality but small and cramped. The campsite was very clean and well organised. Well-stocked vending machines that take contactless payment.
Disliked Only a couple of swings and one slide for children. No trees, shrubs or greenery other than on the outer borders of the site. Individual pitches were quite close to each other. The whole camp site rather stark.

From the manager: Thank you for the review and feedback. Sorry you felt our campsite was not for you. However we are pleased you thought it was good quality, very clean and well managed.

Fully-serviced concrete slab tent or motorhome site (super, small)
Liked Clean facilities and professional set up.
Handy 24hour vending machine shop.
Good showers (no timer) with different shower heads.
Showers always open (even during cleaning).
Near to village shop and pub.
Disliked Temporary portacabins for showering and WC / sinks are separate so have to walk between the two.
Site is a bit crammed in when busy (Bank Holiday Weekend)
Roads are gravelly and dusty when dry and hot (August).

From the manager: Thank you for the recommendation, kind review comments and feedback. We do hope you change your mind and visit us again.

Was nothing not to like! We would definitely return to this campsite

Great, very pleasant stay
Fully-serviced concrete slab tent or motorhome site (super, small)
Liked Vending machines were brilliant, if a little overpriced. Location was good. Cleanliness was impressive all around, seemed like they must have had someone cleaning facilities every few hours. Everything just worked too, which you don't always get nowadays. I think the WiFi was faster than I get at home!
Disliked We were in a lovely quiet corner but there was a group by the toilets being extremely noisy late into the night which would have annoyed us had our pitch been near them. I know the site has rules on this, but good to enforce them.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: We are so glad that you had a very pleasant stay and thank you for your kind review. We do our best to enforce the noise rule with the night cleaner checking for noise by 10pm. Otherwise, noise should be reported to reception during opening hours or calling the out of hours number on the reception window. We look forward to seeing you both and dog again for another stay.

Liked Staff were always available and very friendly.
Very relaxing break and will be back again at some point.
Facilities were clean.
Disliked Because we visited over the August bank holiday, We had to wait for a shower cubicle to become vacant, but no reason to not go back.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for your very kind review and understanding over the bank holiday weekend. We are so pleased that you will be back again for another stay.
