Sea Barn Farm Camping Park

A aimé End of season - on our last night we were the only travelling customer, had the entire huge site to ourselves.

Great views. Short Taxi ride into Weymouth, plenty of bars, music etc.

N'a pas aimé In high season when the place is full - it must be unbearable.

Massive amount of rules - eg if you arrive late there’s a £70 fine, clearly based on experience.

Expensive for what it is.

Little to do - club house and shop closed - not going to open for 1 van. What staff?

Very exposed - if the weather is bad as it was for us, storm force winds and torrential showers, it’s an awful place to be.

Réponse du gestionnaire : You have not visited us in high season so that is a tad unfair to comment on. You were not the only people non site, others had chosen sheltered pitches without the view. We do not have a clubhouse on the park. Our shop is open morning and afternoon, but staff are available on the phone/24/7. You drove the 20 yds to the toilet, so I don't think camping is your best choice of holiday. You did chat with our clean team. We advertise ourselves as a family camping park for people who love the outdoors, walking and birdwatching. We are not a big holiday park with all facilities that comes with that type of holiday. The £70 charge sign was misread, this is for anyone who turns up with out a booking as a deterrent, As we are advance bookings only. You cannot have the exceptional views that we have without being exposed to the elements. But all weather has its own beauty, it changes the colours on sea and land, creating waves that are mesmerising to watch.

A aimé Amazing views , beautifully kept large pitches , facilities were spotless, Staff were friendly

A aimé The amazing views. How well the footpaths were signposted and that you could walk to the bus stop to get into Weymouth. The site was very clean and peaceful.

A aimé Pitches were well marked out. Campsite was clean. The new toilet and shower block was clean, showers were hot. WiFi signal was good on pitch 141. Great location and views.

N'a pas aimé Old toilet block needs updating. Staff weren’t very welcoming or warm. There are over 300 pitches on the site, there was no more than 10 bookings during our stay and we were pitched right next to someone else.

Réponse du gestionnaire : We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay with us. Our pitches are numbered up to 366 but numbered in blocks, only actually 135 marked pitches. Our park is laid out with hedges, and there are usually many more on site than are visible without looking in all the nooks and crannies. The old block is clean and functional. It was due for a facelift in 2020 but we are still recovering.... One day soon hopefully.

A aimé Wonderful scenery, walks and wildlife

Good facilities

N'a pas aimé Although the staff we met were helpful the overall ambience of the place is rather too rules bound - when you arrive you're given two pages of what you can't do and not a word of welcome and what you CAN do. I know places have to have rules but still....

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thank you, we glad you enjoyed your stay. Our leaflet is one page of useful information about the park, one map, one detailing the farm walk, and one of do's and dont's to keep everyone safe. Fairly standard practice.

A aimé Quiet, well laid out, excellent facilities and friendly staff.

A aimé Space around us

N'a pas aimé Almost empty site but put in a windy place without any shelter at all so awning blew down. Showers and toilets very basic. Over zealous rules and no amenities despite them being advertised. If the shop is only open an hour or so per day it should say when booking.

Réponse du gestionnaire : Our park is split into many areas with sheltered pitches and pitches with a view. Not all are visible without checking out the nooks and crannies. Our phones are manned 24/7 and requests to move pitches can usually be accommodated. You just need to ask. Your friends visited our reception and could have asked for you. What amenities were advertised that you didn't find? Yes our shop is only open an hour in the morning and evening when quiet, and all day when the park is busy. (pitchup keeps changing our description to make it sound like a supermarket that is open all day, its not, but We do stock most the essentials.). All the amenities listed are available, laundry is locked at night. Our park rules are industry standard. Nothing more than being respectful to others.

A aimé De plek en de faciliteiten
Mooie camping nette wc’s en douches

A aimé Great facilities, kids play area, laundry, and spacious well-planned pitches.
Very clean shower and bathroom block, with plenty of stalls.
A very quiet, spacious, and comfortable site.
Our pitch was very well sheltered from the wind during our stay.
The view from the water-view pitches was delightful.

N'a pas aimé Our water-view pitch was on a slope, which we found did cause our sleeping bags to slip during the night.

A aimé The views and liked the walk by the campsite.the views and the walk were amasing.

N'a pas aimé Unable to get a caravan pitch with a view.

Réponse du gestionnaire : We are so pleased you enjoyed you stay with us. The walk is so beautiful. Local planning conditions do no allow for us to site caravans on pitches with a view, in case someone 10 miles away may see us with a telescope.....
