Liked: Love the peace and quiet. The surrounding countryside is spectacular. The facilities are simple but this is reflected in the great value. The most important thing for me is the basic but decent shower.

Liked: Everything! Really nice and helpful hosts. Great views all around and quiet too. Being able to have multiple tents per pitch was great as it meant the children (teenagers) could each have their own tent. Will definitely stay again. Toilets and shower checked and cleaned daily. Being as they haven't been doing this long they are doing a great job!

Liked: From the moment you arrive, a sense of peace and calm descends. This is a site where space and freedom are prioritised, a place for families to make memories in a simple, natural way. You are wrapped in the security of a site surrounded immediately by mature trees and their inhabitants, set amongst rolling Dorset hills where nature enables a mindful experience. There is much to like and more to love. * Space, beauty, peace * Attentive and super friendly hosts * Recapture a simple way of living * Cleanliness and presentation * Excellent 4G signal, if required * Optional extras * Great information station
Disliked: There is nothing to dislike, this is a little haven.

Liked: Wonderful friendly hosts. Helpful, approachable. Clean portaloo and shower. Spacious field with lots of space between tents. So much to like.
Disliked: Possibly the lack of ‘real’ toilets. An additional shower perhaps, or a shelf in the shower room. But really not much to dislike.
