Hook Farm Campsite

Polubione: All started with warm welcome, very friendly staff. We were shown to our generous pitch. Shown where all the amenities were. The toilets were clean & modern and showers were warm and clean. The location was perfect for us, 5 mins walk to local pub and 30/40 mins walk to Lyme itself. We were really impressed by the whole site, great it being a dark site and seeing the stars so bright. Unfortunately our car wouldn’t start (new battery needed) the staff jumped to work and got our car jump started in no time at all! Amazingly run site, will definitely be returning in the future

Niepolubione: I wasn’t a fan of the 10am check out. With it being late in the summer, our tent was soaked with morning due when taking it down. 1 hour would have made a lot of difference and our tent would have been dry when packed away

Polubione: Warm welcome. Location close to Lime Regis and a river side walk into town. Facilities on site were good. The terraced pitches. The view from our pitch.

Niepolubione: Having to pay 20p for a 4 minute shower. It only took me 2 minutes to shower, but there was no option to turn the shower off manually. This was a waste of water. If a meter was to be used, then 10p for 2 minutes would be better. For those that prefer a longer shower, then they could take 2 x 10p!! Shame there was no free wifi, although apparently over the winter, this issue may improve.

Polubione: The majority of the staff were lovely and very helpful. The site is on a steep hill and well spaced out raised pitches have been created to provide level bases for tents. The site is very convenient for Lyme Regis. The additional 20p charge per shower provided 4 minutes hot water and this was ample.

Niepolubione: The site is on a steep gradient and the laundry facilities are at the top of the site. After 3 solid days of rain we needed to dry the towels we use for our dogs, my husband is recovering from a knee replacement and I am receiving physio and because there were a lot of towels and they were were heavy we drove up to the to the laundry block, we started to park on a gravel area and a member of staff pounced on us stating that no one is allowed to drive to the block or park, as users are expected to walk to the facilities. We of course moved the car but were not given the opportunity to explain. Additional laundry equipment needs to be installed in the second toilet block at the bottom of the site so that customers don't have to carry wash loads up and down the site. Due to soft ground some tent pitches cannot be reached by car, which means that kit has to be carried up and down hill to set up and pack up. Wifi is provided by a third party and charges were expensive.

Polubione: Clean toilets, flat pitch, spacious, 45 mins walk to the beach/Lyme Regis

Niepolubione: Slightly laborious check-in process of queuing in car, bit of a nothing / sanitised vibe to the campsite, felt like camping in a car park rather than getting in touch with wilderness.

Od administratora: We are pleased that you liked the facilities and the the layout. The team would approach guests who have noisy dogs if they are aware of an issue. I am sorry you experienced this during your stay.

Polubione: This is a lovely quiet, leafy, campsite. The staff are very welcoming. Pitches are well spaced out. Toilet/shower facilities beautifully clean, as are washing up sinks (with bowls provided). Small shop on site open from 9am for bits and bobs. Freezers available for refreezing ice blocks. Easy access to fantastic riverside walk to Lyme Regis town. Thank you.

Niepolubione: WiFi by external provider is a bit expensive (I think it was £20 for a week)
