A aimé : So peaceful. What a perfect spot. Loved the sheep, deer, rabbits, birds and oak trees. Stargazing around a campfire every clear night was heaven. Monkey world and tank museum 1 mile away. Eco toilets best I've used. So clean.

A aimé : As ever, a beautifully chilled weekend stay at Snelling Farm, even the rain and wind didn't put us off. Toilets and showers are always clean, staff are friendly and the setting is lovely, great for star gazing! Great location for walks, bike rides and swims, good place for cake within short walk to the walled garden too. I like the fact this campsite hasn't been overrun with 'glamping' facilities ' too much, it feels like proper camping, but with the added benefit of loos and showers!

A aimé : Snelling Farm was sooo lovely, the fields were spacious, tidy and accessible. The loos, showers were clean and tidy! The little shop has a great range of food items.. even a coffee machine ⭐️ Then to top it off the staff and owners were super friendly and helpful. I’ve already recommended this to friends. I can’t wait to come again. Thanks

N'a pas aimé: Nothing related to the people and farm it’s self. But beware the phone signal isn’t always good… but I personally liked this to have a tech break.

A aimé : Great campsite that enabled me and my two boys to be away from the usual distractions of electronic devices. Loads of space on the site with basic but good facilities that focus on being eco friendly which is another bonus. Perfect location to explore the amazing coastline with lulworth cove and durdle door only 25 mins away, myself and the boys can’t wait to go back!

A aimé : Friendly welcome. Large enough site with a good ethos. Well suited to families. Nice tucked away location and a lovely ford to visit a short walk or bike ride away. Reception shop although small had great quality meat from the farm which we enjoyed. Hay bale play area for kids and the owner even comes to do 'Sheepdog stories' one evening (with the sheepdog).

N'a pas aimé: The site has 2 fields, one for groups / those wishing to make a bit of noise later, one for early to bed / quiet / non groups. We stayed in the quiet field but there were plenty of family groups here making noise after the advised curfew. It would be better if the field guidelines were enforced for groups. Hot water not really available - We're ok with cold showers but it's really required for washing up and washing hands.

A aimé : Nice place, away from the main traffic, cosy, good for kids since they all gather around to play in the middle of the field where the hay stacks and the swings are. No signal! For once you get to feel what it’s like to not check your phone every couple of minutes

A aimé : Choice of areas to pitch in, we chose the family field but next time we'll be going for the early bird field. compost toilets and solar showers were plentiful and pleasant enough. We were given a warm welcome and the staff were all friendly and helpful. The little shepherd hut farm shop was fab. Considering the farm is in a popular area the site was remote. Highly recommended using the Snelling Farms own websites directions.

N'a pas aimé: The only thing we struggled with was the ground and driving the tent pegs in. But that was our rookie mistake and cheap tent pegs. Definitely need decent pegs as the soil is very stoney a few inches down. Not really a dislike, more a learning curve.

A aimé : I hadn’t booked anywhere and found Snelling Farm after searching online. So glad I found it. I usually prefer wild camping but Snelling feels remote and the large, beautiful field surrounded by and dotted with large trees means you can find a quiet spot. Facilities were great - simple, clean and eco friendly. I think it is owned by a farming couple and I met the wife, who was really friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay again.
