Liked: The camp was very clean and tidy the pick was good almost flat the bar was great friendly staff and a good atmosphere but could do with live music as they have a captive audience with nowhere to go so was pretty empty apart from Friday night when they had bingo on not our thing but went for the fun
Disliked: Needs more entertainment in the bar Saturdays and Sundays

From the manager: Hi Margaret, Many thanks for taking the time to leave us a review. We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us. I can see that you stayed with us out of high season. I'm sorry that you were disappointed with the lack of entertainment while you were here. We do not hide the fact that entertainment is quite low key out of high season. Best wishes, Newlands Holidays

Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked: We had our annual family camping long weekend at Newlands in Dorset. Some of us were in tents & some in vans . We all had a great time with afternoon / evening bbqs , swimming , an evening in the Tow bar .The food was good & all the staff were helpful & friendly . The kids throughly enjoyed the gaming room & park . The toilets & showered were cleaned regularly throughout the day . We finished our stay in the Tow Bar with a lovely family Sunday lunch before heading home . The sun even showed up for some of our stay which was great . Lots of families memories made over the long weekend.
Disliked: It was a little noisy at night due to the traffic but we soon got used to it. And it hasn’t put us off coming again .

From the manager: Hello, Thank you for your lovely review. We are so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us. Sorry to hear that you didn't find the big area of grass that is usually used for games like football and even cricket! Sadly we can not control the British weather and we do our best to make the drainage on the pitches the best that we can. Best wishes, Newlands Holidays
We enjoyed our week, but wouldn't rush back

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite
Liked: Good facilities - swimming pool, soft play, bar, games room, outdoor play area. Location - walking distance from Charmouth beach, and well placed to explore Dorset/Devon coast.
Disliked: Road noise from the nearby busy A road - definitely not a tranquil, peaceful location. Our hardstanding touring pitch was towards the top of the site, which is on quite a slope. The pitch itself was level, but due to the terraced nature of the site the pitch felt quite small and constrained. There was no real space for our young kids to roam free safely in the vicinity of our pitch, without taking them to the play area on the other side of the site. The toilet blocks were ok, but a bit tired and need of modernisation.
