What customers say
Flowerdew Farm gets kudos for its friendly, eco-conscious vibe, charming country setting, and welcoming host, Claire. Guests loved the alpacas and goats, the communal barn with games and charging, and the peaceful feel. Facilities were generally clean and sufficient, though some saw room for improvement in restrooms during peak times. Its location near attractions and the coast was also a plus.

Barry bell tent (four person, comfort)
Liked Clare was a great host and very welcoming. Animal experience was great and Clare very engaging with children. Beautiful views from the campsite with friendly atmosphere. Animals really well looked after.
Disliked It would be useful to include a two ring camping stove as part of the mini campers kitchen for bell tents for when BBQ’s are not possible due to heat.

Cracking family friendly campsite.
Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked Simplicity, friendliness, price and location to beaches while away from main roads.
Disliked Smell and flies got a bit much at times. Facilities were fine in dry weather but wouldn’t fancy them in the rain.

A wonderful, growing and positive campsite. Thanks Claire!
Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked You can see how much work and love has gone into Flowerdew Farm. The owner lives its values onsite and open to feedback. It is also ideally situated for some lovely beaches, pubs and villages. As the camping area is quite small, it feels safe and inclusive.
Disliked The toilet/sink/shower area needs a little work but I can see from previous comments from Claire, that she knows and has plans.

Primitive grass campervan campsite
Liked Relaxed friendly site. Owner very helpful and on site, easy to reach. Fridge freezer for common use helpful. Nice indoor seating area for campers and outdoor benches. Alpacas and goats nice feature and clearly well looked after. Compost toilet kept really clean and portaloos are being upgraded so owner responsive to feedback. Close to coast by bike or car.

Primitive grass campervan campsite
Liked The host was very friendly, the location was quiet.
Disliked Smelly as right next door to a cattle farm. Lots of flies. Toilet was minging. Shower head sprayed everywhere except on you. Shower cubicle needed cleaning. Hand washing station was washing up station. Whilst we understand the desire to be eco- friendly this is just squalid. Also wifi did not work.

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!
