Liked Lovely outlook onto green grass and the lake. Saw ducks, geese and herons during our few days there. Hardstanding pitch was good. After the first night, we were the only people there, so that was nice! Good proximity for local towns, and only 40 minutes drive down to Weymouth and Chesil Beach. Pub is a short walk away but they only do basic food at weekends. We drove to The Green Man which is about 5 mins away and the food there is amazing.
Disliked Only one shower open, understandably, but was not keen as it had brown mould all round the shower tray, it's not very spacious and the heater didn't work. Would not have liked the unisex toilets if other people had been on site.
It was quite boggy due to the recent bad weather, but that's just how it is every where at the moment!

Liked Had a fantastic stay at Redlands Breaks.Toilets and showers where warm and clean. Great to be able to wash my dishes in the laundry room, and to dry some towels. This was my 1st ever trip in my new to me campervan and what a great 1st site to choose, I will be back. Host very friendly and helpfull. Spacious pitches. And lovely place to walk my dog. Shop close by. Great to have WiFi and electric, great value for money.

Powered concrete and grass caravan site
Liked had a perfect stay, love this campsite all the amenities were in 1 place e.g showers, toilets, toilet waste disposal, fresh water, bins, recycling and even a launderette, all very clean, tidy and well looked after. small convenience shop down the road, 8 minute walk. lovely views looking over the lake, very quiet and relaxing spot to unwind and forget about the outside world. Hardstanding pitches were the perfect size with amble room to walk around your motorhome. would definitely be returning here again.... amazing!! 10/10

Liked We stayed here at the begining of the new year, the site is one of the best on Pitch up, well laid out has motorhome pitches camp pitches and beautiful geodomes. The lay out is beautiful plenty of room between pitches laundry consisting of a washing machine and dryer no cost but an honesty box for donations.....there is a beautiful lake it was a real treat bring there in the winter watching the wildlife in the area. The people who own and run the site have made this site a joy to stay at.
