Tyckte om Lovely location. The pitches were flat and it was nice to have a pub on site. The bar staff were very friendly.

Tyckte inte om Facilities were inadequate with only 4 showers, 4 toilets and one washing-up sink on site. Two toilets were out of order, leaving only 2 in use, and one shower was out of order. One of the washhand basins also had red tape wrapped around it. Not good enough for the price we paid.

Tyckte om Pitches are nice and flat and the field is big so plenty of space

Tyckte inte om Facilities are dreadful and it was not value for money.
There are only 2 working toilets and 2 showers for the whole site. There is only 1 plate wash sink and 1 drinking water tap.

Tyckte om Not far drive from Lulworth cove

Tyckte inte om Only one toilet and one tiny shower. Both were dark at night with no lighting.
This was serving at least 60 campers this weekend also everyone was paying different rates….

Tyckte om Nice mostly flat camping field & gravel EHU pitches, the camping areas were very clean & tidy.

We had a meal in the Pub and the food was good and the staff were lovely.

Great location for Durdle Door, Lulworth Cove & local attractions.

Tyckte inte om We stayed as part of a large group of 40+ people and there were also other D of E groups staying aswell.

Sadly there were only 2/3 showers and 2/3 toilets working for the campsite, so not great (one toilet and shower was out of use).

As you can imagine there was quite a queue each morning to use the facilities, which were kept clean but were VERY basic.

We paid £39 a night for a hardstanding EHU pitch.

For well under £39 a night we have stayed in other campsites with fantastic toilet & shower block facilities, so the very basic facilities at this campsite made it seem very expensive for what it was.

Also part of the camping field & EHU hook up's are next to a really busy main road which was really noisy well into the early hours of the night. Appreciate there is nothing the campsite owners can do about that but just something to be aware of when booking if you do want peace and tranquillity!

Con's were the facilities could do with being updated & expanded and if you pitch near the road or pub car park it can be very noisy.

Från föreståndaren: Thank you for your kind review! We’re glad you enjoyed the peaceful site and found the pub and team welcoming. Hope to see you again soon!

Tyckte om Great pitches and friendly staff, the new renovation completed on the pub looks great.

Tyckte inte om Was a little disappointed that twin excels can only go on the gravel pitch with electric, we like off grid camping

Tyckte om The camp site has easy access from the main road and is attached to the Red Lion Pub which sells good food and a fine selection of drinks.

Friendly greeting on arrival and given information about the site and its amenities.

The pub does have some good offers on food (at the time of our stay)

The site is mainly grass which was cut to a good length with a few electric hook ups, it also has 5 level pitches on gravel with electric hook ups.

We stayed on pitch 5 which is 1 of 5 on the gravel. These are sited is on the back of the pub car park and not far from the main road.

No issues with the electrics

The toilets and shower areas were nice and clean

Very little light pollution at night so great for star gazing

Very little road noise or noise from the pub car park

Nice easy mooch into the village and its store

Village cricket ground in the next field

Lots of open space

Pretty central to Dorchester, Swanage, Weymouth, Poole, Lulworth Cove, Wareham and all those other places and villages in between.

Tyckte inte om In the camping field there are two separate showers and toilet cubicles at the time of our visit one shower and one toilet was out of action.

The remaining shower did not have a great flow and not very warm; however, at the back of the pub there are two more showers which do get hot and have a good flow another toilet and wash hand basin.

Tyckte om Lovely welcome and well laid out site. Ideally situated for walks out to explore local area and down to Durdle Door and Lulworth Cove. Discount given on food at drink in pub.

Tyckte inte om Pitch was at side of pub car park so a lot of activity with car doors slamming and people having chats, but doesn't go on too long or too late do not a major issue and to be expected.
