Dorset Nectar Orchard Campsite

喜欢 Lovely quiet place, with plenty of room, good facilities (i think they are also building more) ans their cider is very good! Lovely friendly team, and firepits are available for free too! You get to choose your own pitch and have a whole row to yourself, so even next door neighbours could pitch much further down their row, so everyone gets privacy.
Free WiFi at the shop and onto the garden with outdoor games and plenty of benches

不喜欢 The occasional apple falling on to the tent in the wind. But it's an orchard and it was windy so its to be expected!
Only negative is there is no toilet down at the wash up and shower at the bottom of the orchard. No big deal as there's 3 at the top.

喜欢 The peaceful site, the spacious pitch amongst the apple trees in the Cider Orchard.
The bar, shop and pub style garden are very nice.
The individual fire pits which are provided to each pitch.

不喜欢 The lack of sufficient toilets and showers for the potential number of campers.
This is being addressed and should be improved by next year.
The access roads are not for the faint hearted. (Obvious not within anyone’s capability to change this). But bearing this in mind the shop would be more useful if it sold some basic commodities.
As it is a dog free site it is very annoying to find twice a day the camp owners two dogs are allowed to wander freely. They don’t bark, but they raid tents, steal food , raid bins and urinate on possessions, more than irritating.
Very important to keep tent closed at all times when not present.

喜欢 really how we were in between the rows of trees and they being plenty of flexibly so you were able to have plenty of space between other campers. also really nice have the cider tasting room and live music on the Saturday night as well.

不喜欢 only down side was the lack of toilet/shower facilities, however they are currently in the process of building a extra shower/toilet block, so once this is done I don't really see any downsides about the place.

喜欢 Stayed for a long weekend with my two adult boys. Unique camping experience amongst the trees in a cider apple orchard. Everything including cider production is run by family members. Each pitch is a row of trees all to yourself 10s of metres long. A small metal fire pit is provided for each pitch and you can buy wood and kindling to last about an evening for about £12 from the tasting room. You can bring your own wood too. A tour of the cider farm and production room is available on saturdays at 11 which is well worth it - wassail with a loud voice if you join! Organic cider produced on site is available to purchase draft and in bottles. Large area with picnic tables and inside tasting room can be used to while away the hours chatting or playing cards and trying the many differnt ciders available. Area is decorated with topiary and metal statues from another family business. Saturday night live music on site adds another dimension to the stay. Highly recommended site! No kids or dogs (this is a plus for me!). Wifi available in tasting room.

不喜欢 If you don't like narrow country lanes (plenty of passing places though) this isnt the site for you. Toilet and shower facilities are currently slightly limited (although absolutely fine) but a new shower block is being built. Once this is complete I would give 10 stars.

喜欢 Family running campsite were great, and the cider was ace too!

喜欢 Pitches

不喜欢 Owners and facilities.
Two toilets shared between campsite and bar.
Shop that just sells tourist tat.
Mixed messages from staff leading to aggressive encounters. Some say drive to your pitch, others shout about the trees. When we politely said they should have a consistent message, the owner was very patronising and had an argument with his son on the rules in front of us.

来自经理: We are an apple farm, with large trees under which you can pitch your tent, giving you a long unobstructed view of your own private row. We ask people not to drive their cars on this very special, old orchard. All vehicles stay at the beginning of the row. I'm sorry if you misunderstood regarding your car, but you were in an area that was not licensed for camping.
There are 3 toilets and 2 showers.
More than 90% of items sold in the Tasting Room is made on site from the apples we grow and contain the cider, juice and vinegars made right here at the Cider Farm.

喜欢 The location and facilities

不喜欢 Not applicable, was a lovely camp

喜欢 The beautiful pitches and the great little shop to get cider made right next to where we camped!

喜欢 Setting

不喜欢 Toilet facilities are woefully inadequate for campers albeit new toilet block being built. Toilet cleaning needs managed

喜欢 Great Location nice and peaceful.

不喜欢 No Dogs aloud on Campsite. But the owners dog were left wondering around and stole food from our tent right in front of us aswell as other people's. Facilities where dirty the toilet in the shower wasn't even attached to the floor! Not enough toilets or showers on the campsite. Staff weren't overly friendly.

来自经理: To be frank - we were over extended this weekend. There was a hiccup with the booking synchronisation and we ended up being overbooked. At the same time we have a staff member who is very ill and other staff were away manning an event bar.
I am sorry you came on this weekend and found the facilities lacking. We are usually a well managed camp site known for it's amazing customer service and clean facilities and we have a huge following of returning customers. I hope you will visit us again.

Best Wishes

Penny, Oliver and Family
