Polubione Simple camping on a stunning location. Friendly staff and great bacon butties on crispy bread rolls available in the morning.
Basic camping.
Others had the fire pits going which was great.

Niepolubione Slightly overpriced given basic facilities though location perhaps made it worth it.
Suspect the facilities might be overrun on a busy summer season.

Od administratora: Thank you so much for this brilliant review and for sharing your photos too, they're a wonderful reminder of what a special spot Sweet Hill Farm really is.

We're so pleased the location, scenery, walk down to the lighthouse and pub and the café all made such a great impression. There really is nothing quite like that walk on a clear day and we love that guests get to enjoy it as part of their stay.

And "we'll be back" are our three favourite words! We very much look forward to welcoming you again :)

Polubione The owners are really warm and welcoming, nothing is too much trouble. Wild. Loos cleaned daily. Lovely clean shower block plus outside showers.Coffee shop and relaxed seating area. Sauna( we didn't use). About 4 outside washing up sinks spotlessly clean. Breathtaking views over Portland Bill and the lighthouse. Surrounded by nature, great for bird watching, rock climbing, walking, and historical facts. Surrounded by horse fields . glorious sunsets. Short drive/walk to local shops ,pubs, takeaways, restaurants. 15 minute drive to Seaside town of Weymouth and large supermarket. Minimal light pollution so great for star gazing and total peace and quiet after dark. Like stepping back n time.I've been before and would definitely come again. Perfectly clear directions for arriving at site.

Niepolubione I wish it was open all year!!!

Od administratora: What an absolutely wonderful review thank you so much. Reviews like this are the reason we do what we do and we couldn't be more grateful. Welcoming guests and making sure every visit feels special is at the very heart of what Sweet Hill Farm is all about.

We're so thrilled that so many aspects of Sweet Hill Farm made such a lasting impression, from the views over Portland Bill and the glorious sunsets to the showers, washing up sinks, coffee shop and the peace and quiet after dark. We put an enormous amount of care into every detail and it means the world to hear it all noticed and appreciated so fully.

It’s also nice to hear that you made the most of everything the surrounding area has to offer like the birdwatching, rock climbing, walks and the history of Portland are all things we're incredibly proud to be surrounded by. And the stargazing on a clear night is truly an experience.

Sweet Hill very much look forward to welcoming you back again for another visit :)

Polubione Clean toilets. Friendly staff. Good company and nice views

Niepolubione Weather but what do you expect for oct

Od administratora: Thank you so much for this lovely review, we're really glad the facilities, staff and views all hit the mark during your stay. Our team work hard to keep everything clean and welcoming so it's always wonderful to hear it appreciated.

As for the October weather, we couldn't agree more, it does have a mind of its own at this time of year! But there's something rather special about camping in autumn and we're glad it didn't dampen the good company and great views :)

Hopefully you can make it back next year during sunnier times.

Polubione Loved it xx amazing scenery. Friendly people. Even though it was on top of the hill, there was some bushes that protected me from the wind. I really love the place. Plus, your showers are lovely and hot.

Niepolubione I’m not a fan of portable toilet so compost toilets will definitely be an improvement for me. Also maybe the odd pizza truck on a Saturday night

Od administratora: What a lovely review thank you so much. We're so thrilled you loved the scenery, the people and also really pleased the showers delivered as lovely and hot is exactly what we aim for, especially after a breezy day.

We completely understand that portaloos aren't everyone's preference and we appreciate your patience with them. We now have planning permission for a permanent toilet block on site which we're very excited about, so watch this space as good things are coming.

We'd love to let you know that during the busier summer months we do run Portland Paella evenings with live music on weekend nights, which are a real favourite with our guests. We'd love for you to experience one in 2027.

We very much hope to welcome you back to Sweet Hill Farm again :)

Polubione See view, quietness and close proximity to the sea.

Niepolubione The portable toilets were in bad condition. It had smelly sulphur, ammonia and old urine smells, that was unbearable to visit.

There was also an incident with a horse rider screaming at the vehicle in front of us doing 5mph. The person asked why they are shouting and the lady seemed to have made up a list of excuses and it sounded as if she was shifting blame for no reason.

Od administratora: Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and we're pleased to hear the sea views, peace and proximity to the coast made a positive impression, those are things we're very proud of at Sweet Hill Farm.

We're very sorry to hear the portable toilets were not up to standard during your visit. Our team clean and maintain them regularly throughout the day and this is not the experience we want for our guests, we take feedback on our facilities very seriously. We are pleased to share that we have planning permission for a permanent toilet block on site, which we very much hope will make a significant difference for guests in the future.

We were also sorry to read about the incident involving the horse rider. We understand how unpleasant and unsettling an experience like that can be and we sincerely apologise that it occurred during your stay. We work closely with Chesil Equestrian who share the site with us and we will be sure to raise this with them directly, as it is important to us that all guests and visitors feel respected and welcomed at all times.

We hope that despite these issues you were still able to enjoy elements of your stay and we would very much welcome the chance to make it up to you should you choose to return to Sweet Hill Farm in the future.

Polubione very nice

Od administratora: Thank you so much! We're glad you enjoyed your stay and we very much hope to welcome you back to Sweet Hill Farm again :)

Polubione Consistently well managed semi wild camp site, excellent cafe with a great choice of drinks, rolls and baked goodies. Lovely staff and perfectly located in semi -Portland wilderness. A great base for twitchers, walkers, rock climbing, swimming, sea fishing and other water sports. Horse riding/equestrian centre on site and a great shower block with nice hot showers. A new toilet block is on the cards which will greatly add to an already fantastic site run by Charlotte and Daniel. Hopefully be back soon for another sea fishing escapade.

Niepolubione Nothing to dislike

What an absolutely wonderful review, thank you so much, this truly made our day! It's incredibly kind of you to mention so many aspects of the site in such detail and we're so pleased that Sweet Hill Farm continues to hit the mark for you time and time again.

We're delighted to hear the café, showers, staff and location all impressed, and it's lovely to know the site works so well as a base for so many different adventures, from twitching and rock climbing to sea fishing and water sports. There really is something for everyone here and we love that our guests make the most of everything the area has to offer.

We're thrilled you mentioned the equestrian centre as Chesil Equestrian are a wonderful addition to the site and it's great to hear they're being enjoyed by guests too. And yes, we're very excited about the new toilet block as it's something we've been working hard towards and we can't wait for guests to see it in place.

We very much hope to welcome you back for another sea fishing escapade in the future :)

Polubione Location was perfect for walks.
Views of the sea & lighthouses.
Loved the horses and ponies as neighbours.
Showers were clean and hot.

Niepolubione Nothing - I tried not to use the portaloos.
