What customers say
This lovely, eco-friendly campground gets high marks for its friendly owner and staff, beautiful country setting, and the charm of its resident animals, especially the goats and alpacas. Guests enjoy the cozy vibe, thoughtful touches like a communal shelter with seating and power, and its handy location for coastal exploring. Facilities are basic but generally clean and sufficient. A few noted toilet improvements are needed and the site can get busy in peak season.

Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked The set up, access and staff were amazing, everyone was very respecful, facilities were very well kept and the location in proxy to Weymouth and Isle of Portland was perfect

Some great elements, just worth fixing the sanitary items!
Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked Lovely staff, sweet environment and our toddler loved the goats!
Fridge and power in cute day room were a lovely touch.
Disliked Toilets definitely need improvement, a choice between a composting loo and some (fairly revolting) builders porta-potties is completely inappropriate for children, and not great for adults either, definitely undermined the enjoyment of the trip.
Also consider a new nozzle for the shower - exactly the wrong angle, un-adjustable and odd diffuse sprinkler nozzle -> made our toddler scream the first time and me jump when it hit us in the eyes!

Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked Really friendly host and lovely flat pitches...lucky us right next to the pygmy goats ❤️ handy to have an indoor seating area, which had fridges and charging points.
Offer experiences with the pygmy goats and alpacas.
Great location for easy access to Abbotsbury and Weymouth via public transport. Pub nearby.
Disliked The toilets, festival-style portaloos did not fair under the amount of users of the weekend.
Only 1 wash up sink so bit awkward if you want to brush your teeth if someone is doing the washing up

Primitive grass campervan campsite
Liked Welcoming host, lovely intimate campsite with everything we needed close by. Composting loo was well kept and portaloos available also.
Loved the fairylights around the washing up area and cosy stable sitting room, made for a cosy feel.
Had a great time feeding and learning all about the Alpacas and goats. Would happily recommend as a quiet, off the beaten track farm stay.

Barry bell tent (four person, comfort)
Liked The Barry bell tent was as described, cosy and the beds were comfortable. The site is peaceful and is an excellent place to stay for exploring the Jurassic coast from. We valued the shared space in the rest rooms providing a sheltered space for eating, reading, games etc. compost toilet was well maintained and absolutely fine to use.

Short stay primitive grass tent campsite
Liked We really liked the hospitality from the owner, the easiness in last minute booking. The place is really cozy, people (other guests) were really nice. Also the shed was nice, with places to sit
Disliked The Dixies (toilets) smelled a bit and the sink/ water tap were a little shady, but they worked...
