Following a warm welcome by Joan, the friendly owner, we stayed here for two nights in August 2018. Unusual to see deer freely roaming the site; unnatural too given their normally very timid nature. During our brief stay we visited the village of Moreton, where TE Lawrence (Lawrence of Arabia) is buried.
The Frampton Arms pub is within easy walking distance and we went there twice, in spite of there being nothing particularly special about it in terms of atmosphere.
Overall we were happy with this CL and would recommend it.
a deer little site
We stayed at Five cross for 3 nights in July 2018 as part of a south coast trip, 2 adults 2 children & 2 dogs in 1 caravan. Easy access down drive signposted for unrelated larger club site Crossways with almost immediate right / straight on through gateway into Five cross. Lovely friendly site with frequent visits from deer. Thoughtful touch from owners of a cup of tea on arrival. Having trawled through each and every one of the suitable cl sites for Dorset we are very pleased we picked this one! Wishing the owners all the best for the future.
Nice CL in a lovely area
We arrived on a damp afternoon but the welcome was warm and soon so was the weather! Slopping plot how but not a problem with a few blocks, nearby quarry was quiet and once the trees have leaves you would not notice it. There was some noise from the road passing by but really not an issue.
The loo and emptying facility was clean with fresh towels.
Overall a nice site which we hope to visit again.
A Deer Treat.
Easy to find. A very warm welcome from Joan and John, with a nice cuppa, and a treat for the dogs. Field has a slight slope but there are some blocks around if you do not have your own. Facilities clean. The daily visits from the deer were very nice. One evening I was stood with 22 deer around me, hand feeding 6 of them. Lots of places to visit which are close by. A very relaxing break, thank you both.
Lovely CL
Great welcome by John & Joan with the offer of a tea or coffee. Attracted to the site because of the deers. We were not disappointed! The deers come right up to the caravan awning to say hello and even bought their 2 babies for a stroke and some treats. We will return during the winter months as it is a great base for dorsets many attractions. Access very easy. Thanks Joan and John....see you again soon.

A picturesque place in the country
A friendly warm welcome by the owners Joan and John with the offer of a cuppa. The deer don't fail to make you go ah! a nice feeling when they let you hand feed them. A big toilet room available, Good base for walks, Dog love it here as they have the freedom to run on site as long as the others don't mind. Train station a few minutes down the road for a trip to Weymouth. And also Frampton arms pub/restaurant opposite the station .
Peaceful?
A friendly warm welcome by the owners, with the offer of a cuppa. The deer don't fail to make you go ah! a nice feeling when they let you hand feed them. The site is sloping, but plenty of levelling blocks are supplied, big toilet room. Good base for walks, NT properties and towns. Not sure how other reviewers came about their peace and tranquil marks? main road noise is constant til dark, and tractors start going by every morning at about 6am! Plus right next to the Caravan Club site entrance road with more traffic noise. Speaking to others on site found the same. No mobile phone signal for those interested.
Here again
We visit this CL often love it here, also enjoy the hospitality of Joan and John. The dog cant wait to get out of the car he knows he'll get a bicuit, seeing the deer and feeding them is another pleasure. And there's no need for hours in the car travelling to get go resorts, and places of interest. we will be back again :-)
