Liked: Location is so picturesque, with streams and brooks close by, the onsite lake and cafe are excellent bonus.
A lovely local pub within 10 minutes walk.
Disliked: Just one minor dislike, the toilets and showers although newly built have N open feel so can feel draughty and cold. Water temperature is a little inconsistent in the showers and the could do with a seat to get shoes and socks on with more ease. It definitely wasn’t a deal breaker though for us.

Liked: We met up with few friends - a mixture of VWs and Tents as well as our motorhome. Sarah made us feel very welcome and was able to put us all in an area together. The toilets and showers were brand new and great. Loved the lake - we swam and / or paddle boarded every day between us. Great area for walks - we wandered over to Modbury farm shop on one of the days. We also enjoyed the cafe on site and had a lovely seafood lunch next door as well (Rachel’s). We didn’t go to the pub but it’s literally the other side of the field so very convenient. Very dog friendly site and area.
Disliked: Although some of us did walk to the bus stop and then head into West Bay / Bridport, it’s a long way (40 mins to get to a bus that goes every other hour pretty much). Great if you have time and the weather is on your side. Those with younger children would need a vehicle to get to beach or any local town / tourist spot. Even a bike might be tricky on the busier coastal roads. It suited us for a short visit - and this is literally the only downside we felt worth mentioning for others to consider.

Liked: We had a fantastic stay at Litton lakes. The site is lovely. We took advantage of paddle boarding and swimming in the lake as well as the lovely food available in the on site cafe/restaurant.
High standard and very clean facilities and close to lots of attractions and places of natural beauty.
Would definitely recommend it to family groups visiting Dorset.

Liked: The lake was stunning, water sports available, and with a gorgeous cafe. We could use our own fire pit or rent one, and the toilet, shower and washing up facilities were fab. Check in was smooth and the place had a lovely atmosphere
