Anthony A.

Powered grass campsite (medium)

Liked A clean well manicured site with good modern facilities. Walking distance to local pub, cafe and village facilities.
Excellent well drained pitch, which despite torrential, continuous overnight thunder rain rained dry. Plenty of electricity posts with extension cabling, and water posts. Well maintained showers and toilet facilities, and motorhome services.
We liked it as an overnight stay.

Disliked Nothing to dislike.

Liked We stayed here for our first ever camping trip, and we all love it! The vending machines were a great bonus, the facilities were clean 24 hours a day and my kids felt really comfortable here. The reception staff were amazing whenever I needed advice and I was sent an email before arrival for local food areas, which we tried all of, 10/10!! We will be back next year!!

Daniel O.

Powered grass campsite (medium)

Liked The facilities (showers, toilets etc) were of very good quality but small and cramped. The campsite was very clean and well organised. Well-stocked vending machines that take contactless payment.

Disliked Only a couple of swings and one slide for children. No trees, shrubs or greenery other than on the outer borders of the site. Individual pitches were quite close to each other. The whole camp site rather stark.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for the review and feedback. Sorry you felt our campsite was not for you. However we are pleased you thought it was good quality, very clean and well managed.

FHU cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite (medium)

Liked Fantastic site. Nice spacious tree lined pitches with a stream running behind our pitch. The reception desk has lots of essentials available to buy. Vending machines has plenty of food, snacks, fresh orange and shakers etc. Bus stop opposite is a short drive to Weymouth. Brilliant farm shop opposite the site which is well stocked and has a cafe with some gorgeous cakes.

From the manager: Many thanks for your very kind review comments and 10/10 overall score. We are so glad that you thought it was a fantastic site and look forward to seeing you both and dogs again.

FHU cement/asphalt tent or RV campsite (super, small)

Liked Clean facilities and professional set up.
Handy 24hour vending machine shop.
Good showers (no timer) with different shower heads.
Showers always open (even during cleaning).
Near to village shop and pub.

Disliked Temporary portacabins for showering and WC / sinks are separate so have to walk between the two.
Site is a bit crammed in when busy (Bank Holiday Weekend)
Roads are gravelly and dusty when dry and hot (August).

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for the recommendation, kind review comments and feedback. We do hope you change your mind and visit us again.

Local attractions

However long you stay here (at least a couple of weeks, preferably), there's enough to see and do around Dorset to entertain all ages and tastes. Ditch the car if you prefer: the local bus stop is 150 yards from the farm entrance, to pick up the Jurassic Coast route bus (X53) running from Exeter to Poole. The Portesham Dairy Farm team recommends a climb up to the Hardy Monument on Black Down (five minutes' drive) as a nifty way to see Dorset and its splendid coastline (the monument isn't to the writer Thomas Hardy as you might expect in these parts, but to Vice Admiral Thomas Hardy, a commander at the Battle of Trafalgar; do be sure to tell that to the kids). You should be able to see the Devon coast, the Mendip Hills and the Isle of Wight from here on a clear day; just clamber the 120 steps up to the viewpoint. Also much recommended is Abbotsbury, home of the famed swannery as well as subtropical gardens and a kids' farm (also five minutes' drive), and the golden sands, sand sculptures and fair rides of Weymouth, 15 minutes from the farm. Portland (25 minutes) is also a must: visit the lighthouse, forage for fossils and come down the hill from the top of town for stunning views of the coast and Chesil Beach.
