An excellent site, offering stunning views and peace and quiet
Electric optional hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked A lovely camp site and a great location, with large pitches each having its own hook up and water. Nice clean toilet and shower facilities. A very good camp site and an ideal base for visiting the local attractions (Durdle Dor, Lulworth cove etc).

Lovely quiet site in the countryside, with best facilities we've had.
Electric optional hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked The view of open countryside watching the cows and seeing deer. The great big pitch we had. Utter peace and quiet. The washing facilities fantastic- plenty of pegs to hang towel and clothes, a normal shower that you didn't have to keep pressing a button every 10 seconds and you could select your own temperature and pressure, great for the hot days we had. Dog walking area. Metal bins were provided for cooled ash from bbq/firepits
Disliked If i had to find something, then all I could say is the smell from the grey waste drains. But certainly not a deal breaker. Could control by running hot water down the drain.

A well kept site in a quiet location
Electric optional hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked The site is in a very quiet location and during my time there, there was no noise or disturbance. The toilet block is impeccably clean. The site is within reasonable distance of the beautiful Dorset town of Wimborne which does offer parking for motor homes. The WiFi service is excellent.
Disliked There appeared to be nothing at all within easy walking distance of the site.
