Hallett's Rural Campsite

喜欢 Easygoing - three fields - lots of space

不喜欢 Someone pitched their tent right next to our’s so guy ropes were almost touching. There were loads of other spaces to choose from. They arrived back late and then made noise well into the night! Because of this we packed up and left the next morning.

喜欢 Informal relaxed style. Pop up bar in evening. Friendly local owner who was present most days.

不喜欢 Disorganised bin and water area. Lack of signs to direct you.

喜欢 Nice touch having a bar, if you want a few drinks then it's ideal.

不喜欢 Bit dirty, lots of drie sheep poo around. Definitely not rural so don't expect a countryside oasis. Overlooked by houses and the view is poor. Potential to be noisy at night. We only stayed 1 of the 2 nights we booked after some antisocial guests, we went and found a quieter site.

喜欢 Easy to find, compact and fenced, with all the basic facilities. Considering the very low price, it offers good value for a simple overnight stay. There are some thoughtful extras, including books to read, a vending machine with soft drinks, and facilities for sorting and recycling waste.

Although the shower cubicles are very small, they have a curtain separating the shower area from the door and hooks for your belongings. This is a simple but very practical solution, as your clothes and other belongings stay dry while you shower.

不喜欢 Things to be aware of.

This is a small, basic budget campsite on a field directly behind residential houses rather than a secluded rural site. The houses are clearly visible from the campsite, so it may not suit someone looking for privacy or a peaceful countryside setting.

The shower cubicles are extremely small. In the ladies’ facilities there is only one sink, which is shared for washing hands after using the toilet, brushing teeth and washing dishes. There is only cold water, and campers need to bring their own washing-up liquid and sponge. At busy times, you may need to wait to use the sink.

During our stay, barbecues were not allowed because of the fire risk, which was completely understandable. However, there was no alternative way to heat food or water. In circumstances like this, access to hot water, or even the possibility of buying tea or coffee, would be very useful.

Unfortunately, we also had a very unpleasant experience with neighbouring campers. Early in the morning, we were woken by them shouting and accusing us of taking their charger. We had been asleep and knew nothing about it, but they came up to our car and tent demanding that we return it. The situation was very confrontational and stressful.

I offered to let one of them look inside our tent to show that we did not have their charger. Later, they found it themselves, and one of the younger women came over and apologised, which we appreciated.

However, by then we no longer felt comfortable staying, so we packed up and left shortly afterwards. We have stayed at many other campsites and have never experienced anything like this before.

This was not the fault of the campsite or its staff, but unfortunately it had a significant impact on our stay.

喜欢 Great stay, owned by a friendly welcoming family, Beckys Cocktail Bar serves reasonably priced drinks at weekends. Location was great, with everything close by inc Bus stop for Weymouth, the SW coastal path, Tesco, pub etc.

喜欢 a lovely simple campsite. The owner was very helpful when we got stuck in a traffic jam and realised we would be far later than the check in time. Very happy

喜欢 The owners are lovely and treated us as old friends. Made us feel very welcome and the cocktail bar was fabulous with proper shaken cocktails. Just what we needed after a day of cycling around the island.
And of course, amazing sunsets.

喜欢 Open clean space. Loads of room so you’re not packed in around other campers. Clean facilities. Very friendly owners.

不喜欢 Road into campsite needs attention due to potholes.
