What customers say
Pear Tree Farm: A ripper quiet, dog-friendly spot with fab country views. Gary the owner's a legend, and it's super secure. Good-sized sites, water & power. Clean and fair dinkum value, though loos can get busy and some found the ground rocky for pegs. Steep access road, too.

Fantadtic location, views and price.
Power optional grass and gravel caravan site
Liked Was visiting the area to meet up with family and attend Melplash Show. West Bay wanted £170 for 2 nights, Pear Tree Farm cost £42 for 2 nights plus you pay for the electric you use (£4.83 in our case for 2 days/nights). There is also one toilet and one shower (£1 for 8 mins) on site. There is no charge for dogs. The reason I list all this is because some people will pay £21 a night and still want the facilities of a £50 to £80 a night site. That's unfair, because if you apply price discrimination, this site provides the most value for money. It is a jewel in the crown, hidden away in the West Dorset countryside. Gary the owner was very friendly and approachable and only too willing to assist if help is needed. If it was possible, this is one site that I would give 20 out of 10.
