What customers say
A top family spot near Charmouth & Lyme Regis. Reviews love the clean loos, roomy pitches & helpful staff. Kids rave about the pools & play zones. Mostly brilliant, but a few noted road noise and busy periods.

Looking forward to going back soon.
Powered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked The staff were extremely friendly. There was a problem with a rowdy bunch of campers who made excessive noise one night. They were asked to leave the very next day. The managers then made a point of visiting everyone else to apologise for the trouble caused.
The shop had a good level of groceries, drinks, snacks and toys, all at reasonable prices.
The swimming pools are of a high standard. With nice clean changing facilities.
The bar and evening entertainment were also a bonus
My grandchildren loved the soft play and outdoor play parks.
The shower block was kept in an immaculate condition, with plenty of showers for everyone, so no queues.
The site is handy for the many lovely beaches in this part of the world.
Disliked The site is on a steep incline but the pitches are level. This does mean that the walk to and from the shops will work off a few calories.
There are plenty of seagulls on site so make sure you lock up any left over food or rubbish

Views good, noisy road.
Powered concrete slab caravan site
Liked Unfortunately due to a family accident altering our plans we were only able to stay one night. However, Lovely views, shop on-site, indoor and outdoor pool which we enjoyed. Cannot comment on the food/drink/entertainment as we did not get to use this part of the establishment.
Disliked By a main road which was very noisy, facilities outdated and not kept tidy by other campers/holiday makers, which was a shame.
A few thistles/weeds growing up through the pitches, parts of the site really well maintained and freshened up, but not where we were unfortunately.
