Liked: The campsite was close to the traffic, but it did not bother us.
The view of the seashore was beautiful, and there were long walks by it. It would be best if you took serious walking shoes, as the stones on your way are not only very sharp but dangerous if you fall on them.
Disliked: We enjoy swimming, but the campsite does not offer any swimming options. Therefore, if swimming is important to you, this is not the ideal site to choose.

Liked: A great location, with amazing views and a short walk from Portland Bill. Only 20 min drive into the centre of Weymouth. Quiet and peaceful.
Disliked: On Friday & Saturday night there was some music quite late a night from a local pub, which inside a tent was quite audible. It stopped around 12am. Outside of that the site was quiet and peaceful during the day and on other nights.

Liked: The grounds were well kept and well maintained.
Disliked: Half the portaloos were blocked and not operating properly so the smell was quite horrible. Also beware there are no hand washing facilities and hand sanitiser was not filled so you will need to bring your own.

Liked: The site was absolutely outstanding, beautiful view, great wild camping. Very friendly and easy booking, and nice greeting that evening too. Thank you, we had a wonderful time.
Disliked: The portaloos are a bit jaded, but obviously that's a big expense. We appreciated them being cleaned each morning.
