Camp Hartland

Lovely area, great facilities. The little cafe which opens in the morning and evening was a super extra! We both really enjoyed our stay.

We stayed for two weekends in August & would return again mainly due to the great location & friendly owners. Lovely heathland walks on the doorstep with lots of birds & wildlife to spot. We stayed in the bottom fields next to the trees which gave some shade. The coffee hut was great with a good selection of pastries & friendly service. I did see a phone charging sign but didn't try it. Being able to arrive & leave at anytime really takes the stress out the stay & made the difference when choosing a site, along with the location.

Would have preferred the to have been more flushing toilets & the showers separately. Having them in together meant they were often occupied for a long time. Eco loos were fine for us but some other campers children were scared to use them. This wouldn't stop us returning again though.
Addition of ice pack freezing would have made it near perfect....accidentally ruined my pastries one day with a bag of melting ice :(

Friendly and welcoming site, good amount of space for pitches. On site cafe horsebox was a lovely addition!

Lovely pitches and clean camp site. Showers were powerful and lovely and warm. Staff friendly and morning croissants and bacon baps were a bonus! This was our second stay and we will definitely be back again!

Nothing- it was great all round

The site is spread out amongst the trees, sandy hills & the farm . Very quiet at night & facilities are excellent. Solar lights were a special touch. The opportunity to have a good campfire was a big bonus. Very chilled,relaxed atmosphere!

Terrific campsite. Well-maintained and relaxed, even with bank holiday crowds. Jill's cafe was a highlight, especially the pies.

Fantastic location: beautiful and quiet setting but easily accessible and close to coast, Corfe Castle, Wareham and other places of interest.

Pitch where you want to: No set pitches and plenty of space. Younger families tended to go for the bottom fields, close to facilities; and bigger groups on the top field, with fantastic views.

No check-in or check-out time: Fantastic value for money and no stress!

Horsebox café: fantastic pastries, pasties and other local goodies.

Phone charging facility.

Shower huts: really good, hot showers!

Super friendly owners.

We stayed on Bank Holiday weekend so the site was very busy (as expected) with huge pressure on bathroom facilities. There are only two flushing loos, both with showers in the same rooms, so long queues in the morning and evening. There are also eco-loos but the one close to us was somewhat smelly and clearly being used in the mornings by those worse for wear from the night before!

A couple more flushing loos would be useful - or even if the current bathrooms were rearranged to include two toilet cubicles and sinks in one room and two shower cubicles in the other, so that those needing to use the loo or brush teeth etc. aren't delayed by folk having long showers!

The fields were well kept, and the surrounding area was good, lots of nice walks and Corfe castle and Blue Pool nearby. The newer wooden showers we're pretty clean and the water was okay (though it did occasionally go freezing cold before warming up again).
Nice little cafe (a converted horse box) on site.
No check-out time.

We were bitten by insects a LOT! Not sure if it was because of the horses attracting fly's but I came back with 20+ bites after 2 days.
Not enough toilets. The two flushable toilets are in the same rooms as the showers, so queues are long just to go to the loo. There are a few composting toilets too, but these were very smelly (there's not enough saw dust to cover waste).

Atmosphere, fields, showers, horse box cafe, people, weather!

Not enough toilets and lots of mosquitoes

Relaxed vibe, friendly atmosphere, easy check-in. Great location. Loved the breakfast van!

Several dog poos in field did not make pitching fun
