Huntick Retreat

Syntes om: Staff were super friendly and we were guaranteed and allocated a pitch. Travelled as a party of 6, 3 couples and we were put together thank you so much. Toilets were very clean and tidy. We had a really amazing stay thank you very much.

Syntes om: Quietness of campsite. Good mobile signal. Showerblock was very clean with plenty of hot water. No timed showers.

Syntes ikke om: There is no pathway to walk from there to the villages. Have to walk on quite a busy road. Nearest village was about 1.2 miles away which we did walk to & went to The Chequers Inn which we enjoyed very much. Wouldn’t do it in the dark though. Not the campsites fault. All the land around seemed private.

Lady on reception very friendly and helpful

Syntes ikke om: WiFi did not extend beyond reception, though sign on door indicated there were WiFi issues so presumably a temporary problem

Syntes om: The location is fantastic as only a short drive to Poole or Bournemouth. Staff seemed friendly and helpful. The sound of the birds in the woods were great. The potential to be a great site.

Syntes ikke om: Even though I read reviews, and the campsite right up. There wasn’t anywhere I noticed that groups could book, we were unfortunate enough to be backed on to what seemed like a group of 10-12 people who also had guests arriving throughout the weekend. We expected a peaceful time, as advertised, but were constantly having to listen to this group. I didn’t report or complain to site staff at the time (as they were staying in the same area so would be well aware of the noise late into the night and starting early each morning). If I had known groups could book then I would have possibly looked elsewhere. Also advertised as having great views, from what we could see, only 3 spots had any sort of view across the hills.

Fra bestyreren: Thank you for your review, your feedback is valuable to us.

In answer to your comment regarding group bookings; we do not allow group bookings, however, if parties book in different names it is difficult to monitor when booked. We are sorry that you did not have the peaceful experience that you expected, and I am sure if the members of the group knew that they were spoiling your stay they would have been more considerate.

Kind Regards
Huntick Retreat

Syntes om: Everything, warm friendly welcome when checking in, the campsite itself was well maintained, peaceful and had the most amazing views
I loved the added touch of spare toiletries in the toilet/shower block, someone always forgets something
We would definitely visit again and will recommend to friends
Thank You Huntick Retreat, until next time

Syntes om: Peaceful and beautiful views. Immaculate toilet and shower block and really friendly staff.

Syntes ikke om: There was a very toxic smelling smoky fire in the caravan storage area on the first morning we were there. It made me feel sick as the smell was chemically.
Tree surgeons appeared that same morning quite early and we hadn’t been informed that they’d be working in the area next to us.

Syntes om: This has to be one of the best campsites we have stayed at. So so peaceful, all you could hear was birds singing. The toilets and showers were immaculate. A very warm welcome when we arrived. Our pitch was brilliant that was not overlooked. Would 100% recommend and stay here again.

Syntes om: Very rural lots of nature owls hooting and screeching at night what a delightful sound. Staff very helpful.

Syntes ikke om: People not following site etiquette. Noisy dogs. Fire pits everywhere smoke everywhere. Toilets need updating. Site needs a good tidy up. The gravel roads were incredibly dusty so car and van ended up covered in dust. Pitches are also quite close. Quite expensive for what it is.

Syntes om: Such a peaceful caravan & campsite.
Friendly welcome and site was kept tidy.. large pitches with plenty of space. Constant beautiful birdsong during the day and an assortment of owls keeping us company during the night.
Definitely a great place to stay if you just want to unwind, kick back and enjoy your surroundings.
