Fully-serviced grass pitch (large, super)
Liked: The facilities were outstanding, fresh milk, coffees, ice cream and lots more were available 24/7. Very clean shower and loo. We visited with a young child (under 1) and it felt very child friendly. It was large but felt very spacious as pitches were not cramped together.
Disliked: None

Electric hardstanding touring pitch (medium, semi-serviced)
Liked: Cleanliness & Organisation. The campsite requests a particular layout, which actually adds to the athletics of the site, everything all lined up nicely. The restrooms get a thorough, and I mean thorough cleaning daily, by the young lady, who puts 100% effort into it. The are the cleanest i’ve ever seen. The water technology is awesome..shows that a lot of money & effort has been put into the campsite. The vending machine area, is a sight to behold. Fresh dairy milk, milkshake or frappe from one machine, Hot drinks another, All your staples including loafs of bread and in the last vending machine is local ice creams with over 10 flavours. It’s a fantastic idea & way better than it sounds. The staff in reception were kind, friendly & helpful. Nothing was a silly question. I felt very welcome. The site is secured by automated bollards that only allow registered vehicles in, so solo travellers can rest assured that they will feel safe. Could easily be an Adults Only campsite as it was so peaceful. The local pub is worth a visit, if only for the dog friendly garden. The burger I had for lunch was epic, I couldn’t eat for the rest of the day. I only walked around the local farm shop & cafe, but from what I saw the food looked good. Local attractions you must add to your list; Weymouth Beach, Weymouth Harbour, Nothe Fort, Abbotsbury Village, St Catherine’s Chapel (this requires a walk up a steap hill, take water) The Swannery … plus so much more.
Disliked: Nothing - A helpful tip - bring mountain pegs, if you’ve booked hard standing.

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch (medium)
Liked: Rural views. Large dog walk field and path along old railway track. Level gravel serviced pitch. Very good shower and toilet facilities. 24 hour vending machines for essential supplies. Pub and farm shop cafe close by. Bus stop at entrance. Summer day service to Weymouth or Lyme Regis for £2 per journey. Cheaper than parking for the day. Walks to Hardy's Monument, Chesil Beach or Abbotsbury. Secure vehicle entry with numberplate recognition. Allows to tall motorhomes.
Disliked: Sometimes traffic noise is noticeable. No TV reception for us however this was made clear in the welcome letter. WiFi was variable.
