Calm and tranquil site. Although all 5 pitches were full, it was still quiet. The site is perfectly located for visits to many places in the area. Visited most places by campervan, but did manage a walk up to Maiden Castle on foot from the site. Was a bit of a challenge, but made it! The shower room and toilet are kept lovely and clean (inevitable working farm smells notwithstanding!). Very friendly and helpful owner who was easily contactable and responsive, but who was happy to leave you to it. A lovely site that I would thoroughly recommend and wouldn't hesitate to revisit.
Excellent CL
Well managed site. Excellent pitches and facilities. Friendly and helpful owners. Very dog friendly. Can recommend walk to Maiden Castle from the site - superb panoramic views from the top. Good base for exploring the area. In short, the perfect CL!
This is what CL sites should be like
The size of the field, just perfect, with pitches just right, and a superb toilet and shower block, well labelled water etc and info hut.
It is is an easy to reach village and all Dorset spreads around from this place … east west north and south,
Cycling into Weymouth or Dorchester appears to be easy as the lanes to the west,
The main road near by is not an issue, all was just excellent… we will be back
Great stop to visit Poundbury and Dorchester
Easy to find and access, good size spots and super shower. Would definitely stay again.
Excellent stay.
We have just spent three nights at this lovely CL and recommend it. The site is level and fairly spacious with an information chalet, where we found useful local information. The electric works well, the water has good pressure and the cassette area is clean and tidy. The access is easy from the Dorchester to Weymouth road and the bus stop is within a five or six minute walk. We caught the bus to Weymouth and had a lovely day there. We will definitely be back, as we like Dorset very much.
Great 4 night Stay
We had a very enjoyable few day stay, will defiantly come back again.

Wedding stay
We had a lovely weekend at this site. Arrived on the Friday and had a lovely rest before going to Weymouth for a couple of hours.
Sat was all taken on the wedding got home about 11 lovely and peaceful.
Site is easy to find and get to and the host met us on the Sat morning to check we were ok
Although it is a working farm it wasn't at all noisy.
Great stay.
Quiet but wet stay
We like Dorset and have camped in many sites in the area. This is our first time here.
The site was quiet, which we like, but the weather was not on our side this time, never mind that's how it goes.
We found it easy to get into and out of the site every thing was thereon site that we needed. It was nice watching the swifts and swallows flying around and the dawn choras was noisy, as expected, but relaxing.
I only have one comment to make that is that the tv arial lead needs upgrading, as we had no reception, other wise we had a good tome there.
will come back either later this year or next.
Very relaxing stay
We had a lovely time on this relaxing, comfortable site in a lovely location in rural Dorset on a working farm. There were good amenities ( shower etc) and a very friendly welcome from Judith. There is plenty to do nearby, whatever the weather, and we would certainly consider returning for a future visit
