Liked: Great little field with immaculately kept facilities. Top fields a great spot for the evening sun and has a great little footpath at the top for short walks. Minutes away from town and a short drive to the coast or Dorchester.

Liked: Lovely site and owner. Great signal/data coverage too!
Disliked: Unfortunately a large group of families were there during our stay and making lots of noise until late (kids running around pretty close to our tent after 10:30 at night flashing lights and shouting) Unfortunately their parents did nothing, in fact they were also talking away loudly until late.
