Liked The ground was flat and the whole campsite was empty. If you go right to the hedge and jump, the view is nice.

Disliked Unfriendly staff
Unwelcoming atmosphere.
After being stuck in traffic for hours, when we knew we were going to be 15 mins late past check in, I called to let them know. You'd think I was calling to them them it was the end of the world due to the reaction I got.

From the manager: Thank you for your comments.

Sea Barn Farm is a working farm and a camping park. It has an abundance of wildlife and also a herd of cows and their calves. For these reasons, as stated on our website and in our terms and conditions of booking, we do not allow dogs on any part of the farm or camping park unless they are kept on a lead at all times. This helps to ensure the safety and wellbeing of all concerned, including members of our team, other guests and animals on the farm.

As, shortly after arrival, your dog was running uncontrolled off a lead and being called for by you or your companion with little success, a member of our team reminded you, quite justifiably, of your obligations whilst on our premises, to keep your dog leased, as you had agreed to do when made your booking.

If that seems rude or unwelcoming, imagine how we feel about people who blatantly disregard agreements they have made and clearly do not comprehend the damage or distress that can inadvertently be caused by an unleashed dog, whether to other guests, farm animals or wildlife.

Had you done what you had agreed to do, no one would have needed to speak to you about your dog at all.

With reference to our policy on arrival times, for the safety, comfort and enjoyment of all our guests, the latest time of arrival, is, as published on our website and our terms and conditions of booking 7 pm.

This helps to ensure that customers who are already on site are not disturbed by other guests pitching their tents or siting their caravans at times when guests would otherwise be enjoying a relaxing evening.

If guests have not arrived at the time we would expect, we do not think it unreasonable to enquire when they anticipate arriving at our home and place of work.

Liked Nice and clean campsite that seemed staffed all night, lovely views over looking Chesil beach, lovely and quiet

Disliked That we were unable to choose our pitch even though the campsite was near empty, I understand when its busy, we wanted a pitch with a better view.

From the manager: Thank you. We are so pleased you enjoyed our lovely views as much as we do. We do have some pitches with a view suitable for campervans available to book. If you had asked we may have been able to accommodate your request. Though that would have been at a different price and pitch type. most of our camper van pitches with a view for the weekend were booked.

Liked Beautiful location.
Good sized pitch.
Site and facilities are clean and well kept.

Disliked Didn't meet the owner/operators of the site.
Very inflexible arrival and return time but this may be due to local bylaws that are strict with the site so be sure to arrive when allocated.

We are sorry if this was inconvenient for you, but we believe we are not alone in restricting access to new arrivals to certain times and you were made of this at the time of booking and subsequently by phone.

Liked Beautiful views

Liked Beautiful site with stunning views across to Chesil Beach. Toilet and shower block was very clean and lovely to use. Staff were friendly and welcoming. Only teeny (and I mean teeny) change we would make is that the play area could do with a revamp. Having said that, my two had great fun. This was our first camping trip as a family, and we will definitely be back!

Liked Hedgerows provided excellent wind protection at what is an exposed site. The toilets block is large and newly renovated to a high quality standard. The view from the far end of the site over chesil beach out to west bay is fantastic.
