What customers say
Peaceful farm site, great for Dorset exploration. Praised for friendly staff, clean facilities, and farm shop cafe (try the apple cake ice cream!). Facilities are basic but clean; some noted minor shower issues and a need for more privacy.

A simple, peaceful farm site in lovely countryside.
Primitive grass campervan campsite
Liked Lovely countryside, peaceful campsite with clean toilets and showers. Fabulous Dorset apple cake in the farm shop. We’ll come for longer next time.

Fantastic site, clean modern shower and toilet, friendly staff.
Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Lovely site, on a working farm, with plenty of room, fantastic facilities on site, with a little shop and cafe, selling home made cakes (the apple cake was the best made with apples from the farm) plus local Game burgers, bread, beers cider and other local Goodies. The showers and toilets were modern and the owners worked hard to keep them clean throughout the day. The owners were a wealth of knowledge and were really helpful telling us about some amazing beaches, including some hidden gems.
Disliked Nothing to dislike, even the sun shone!!

From the manager: thank you for kindly staying with us recently, and we hope you enjoyed your stay. Really sorry about the shower not being clean for your visit to it. We tried so hard to keep these clean during the bank holiday weekend visiting 3 times during the afternoon/evening and again 3 in the morning to do our normal checks. We have noticed the possibility of someone maybe showering in footware, which may have caused grass blocking issue. As soon as we noticed this we cleared and cleaned as we take pride in our washroom.
Anyway good to meet you
A quiet site, nice views across farm land. Basic but clean facilities

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked We loved that it was quiet. There was the farm shop with a lovely tea/beer garden. The best ice cream we ever had. All you need on a camp site as facilities. And an old, but powerful fridge/freezer in the kitchen we could use. We froze water over night for the hot day at the beach.

Clean, friendly and well located
Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked The location was good, the sheltered site was quiet and flat. The team were helpful and seemed to have though about grouping similar groups together to keep everyone happy.
The farm shop and cafe were a great addition and were really reasonably priced.
The toilets were clean and well stocked with paper.
Disliked The kitchen block is in desperate need of a refurb, the roof leaks and the floor is rotting, but it was functional and plenty of hot water for washing up.
The showers need a little work, they were clean but ineffective for actually getting a good wash due to showerhead issues.

Spacious, good value campsite.
Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Good value for money and plenty of space. Facilities were basic, but clean. Lots of beautiful countryside and could go walking without having to drive.
Disliked Website doesn't accurately reflect their rules. They state no dogs and no large groups so I booked with the expectation that it would be a very quiet place to stay. But there was a large group near us and several dogs, so not as quiet as expected.

Primitive grass campervan campsite
Liked The friendly owner, the peaceful surroundings and the local area. The site was well kept and a lovely place to sit out of an evening and watch the bats and the stars.
Disliked Whilst the toilets were clean and functional, the gents shower tray was cracked and the toilet door had a window in it, giving people in the tea rooms opposite a view in as you use the urinals. The ladies shower had a similar window in the shower. Put some frosted glass in, or a blind. The washing up facilities could really do with an update. There's only one sink, no lights and the roof leaks.
