Ok but not great
Powered grass travel trailer campsite
Liked: Facilities good and pitches level. Good views over surrounding countryside.
Disliked: Quite noisy (campsite is near a main road). And although facilities new(ish) they were not kept partially clean. Food in the restaurant ok, but not great nor cheap.

Well worth every penny, you will not be disappointed
Powered grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked: Easy to find, staff were very friendly and helpful, all facilities were immaculate. Pitches were very spacious and allowed for privacy. Having free WiFi was a great bonus.
Lots of ground area providing alternative options for your stay, definitely considering taking the children and grandkids.
Disliked: A niggle but could live with it, shower direction was all over place

Very helpful friendly young man on swim desk on the sat 14th June
Powered cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite
Liked: Great site / fantastic location nearly all of facilities were great and friendly staff
Disliked: We had to buy table tennis bats from the shop as past guests took them.
Would be an idea to charge a healthy deposit to sort this.
Jacuzzi was out of order on our the Sunday 16th 9am booked swim. Apparently, to much chlorine was added.
Male toilets in camping field could be cleaner, generally consistently dirty loos.
To much info required to sign on to WIFI
Aside from these points we joined extended family and enjoyed our stay, great location would definitely book again. Thankyou.

Powered grass travel trailer campsite
Liked: The site was fantastic it had the amenities that you could think of. Easy access to nearby villages, beaches and towns. And if I couldn’t say anymore the staff especially Zoe were extremely helpful. Helping us to continue our holiday due to the failure of our Olpro awning. I would recommend this site to everyone, families, single travellers and couples. Thanks for a wonderful week.

Powered grass travel trailer campsite
Liked: Nice campsite with good location and facilities. Good swimming pools and a very good playground for younger children. Easy access to Charmouth and Lyme Regis by bus. Shop and staff were great.
Disliked: Our pitch was on a slope which caused problems with sleeping and cooking. We thought the pitches were a bit tight. Also, due to the terracing we felt we were overlooking groups further down the slope.

Fabulous site. We will return.
Powered grass travel trailer campsite
Liked: Newlands is a lovely well cared for site. The facilities are great. Brilliant pool and bar/restaurant. We were enjoyed delicious meals. We stayed on the touring caravan pitches which were well maintained and spacious.
The children loved the playground and spent many hours there.
We will definitely revisit.
Disliked: The only additional thing which would have improved our stay and I know this won’t affect all others is as we had a baby with us is if there was a large sink or small bath in the family shower room. This would have been great.
