Positiv Three giant fields, meaning there was lots of space and it almost felt like wild camping. We liked the proximity to Harman's Cross railway Station. Across the fields it took us approx. 25-30min to walk there.

Positiv Great facilities, very clean and maintained and well located, only a few minutes from Corfe Castle and slightly further for the rest of the Jurassic Coast. Provided a good starting location for a scenic bike ride too! You can choose where you pitch up on the (huge) field meaning you can be as close or far from others.

Negativ The promotional images feature a stunning view of the Castle and the steam train rolling through the hills... but don't be fooled. This is only seen from the motorhome field, with no facilities, and cannot be seen from the tent field. Quite a disappointment to be honest. The only other thing was there is only cold water from the washing up taps, though the showers are meters away to grab a bucket of warm water.

Positiv Great location, plenty of space even though we got nearly the last pitch, very reasonable price to have flushing loos, basins with water and soap, showers and washing up facilities basic but clean and lit at night

Positiv Plenty of space, lovely views, close to Corfe Castle, lovely and quiet. Good showers with hot water, toilet facilities with plenty of paper.

Perfect for us.

Positiv We spent a wonderful weekend at Purbeck Valley campsite. There were quite a few people but the site is spacious so there's plenty of room between pitches. It is a lovely quite site so perfect for families. The facilities are clean and well maintained - just make sure you showered before sunset as there are no lights! We pitched west facing and could watch that glorious sunsets over the hills. On a clear night there are more stars than we have ever seen before, well worth getting up to watch the shooting stars in August. There's plenty to do within a short drive in every direction, or just relax on site. We really enjoyed our stay and hoping to return again next year.

Positiv Absolutely fab location, beautiful views, and a really warm welcome! Basic site, but the facilities were clean and functional.
Most importantly (for us at least) it was chilled, quiet, relaxing and set in fantastic surroundings. We were super lucky with the weather (this time) - I’d image in wetter times it could get a bit boggy!

Negativ For us, for this visit, nothing at all - we have all our facilities on board, so didn’t really have cause to use much at the site. Weather made it!

Positiv Freedom to pitch wherever you like.
Large fields with plenty of space for kids to be wild and free
Good price for peak season
Good location
Bus stop out on road with good links to train station and locations
Generally nice quiet site bar the road.

Negativ Very busy road all hours of day and night (Top field) next time we would choose different field to stay in.
Most fields are on a slope
Facilities, depending where you stay toilets and showers are bit of a walk. Our closest toilets where in a private part of the camp site which 3 days into our stay we were told was going to be closed for the remaining of our stay. We had option to move but we all no once set up you ain't moving till you go :) so for the remaining stay it was a drive or 10 min walk to the toilets. Lucky we are self sufficient but family staying with us only had tent.
