Wet start

We booked online giving details ,arriving on a very wet day to be told ,not to damage the grass and could we stay on the gravel car park ,so not the best start ,setting this aside the site is pretty surrounded with trees and wildlife,good for exploring Dorset,plenty of National trust and good food ,a bit pricey at pub next to site ,steak and chips ,too drinks each £67 basic pub food ,recommend the wisemen in next village ,on the whole not a great start ,showers dated ,toilets odd ,pretty site ,but sorry would not return

Long weekend break

Had a pleasant 3 night stay at Crossways with our dogs. The site was quite busy even in September; the wardens were lovely and the site is well-maintained and facilities clean. The dry composting toilets were a great idea. The site is in a very good position, easy to access from a main road but with little noise from it once parked up - although every time a train passed you heard the warning! Water pressure in the showers was unfortunately very poor, and it would be good if the details could state that the dog walk, although of a good length, does not allow dogs off lead, indeed it would not be safe as it runs alongside the site road. Huge plus point is the very short walk to the local hostelry which serves decent food at a good price :) Have no idea about families as ours is canine!

Lovely site

This was our first stay, we found it to be well maintained and peaceful. The site is located close to all attractions being only 4 miles from the coast. What also makes this site a good place to stay are the wardens, they are very friendly and take time to talk and work very hard.

Peaceful and relaxing break with wildlife to watch

Enjoyed a few days break at Crossways. Myself and Millie the dog loved watching the deer coming to visit and got some great photos. Site itself has a very chilled feel and the wardens are very friendly and helpful. Composting toilets were fine and the train line which ran close by I hardly noticed. Loved the woodland feel and great size pitches. Back to nature was just what I wanted. Looking forward to going again.

well run site

We stayed on the site for 4 nights and found it to be very well run and very clean and tidy. Not sure we liked being so near to trees especially when it rained and the ground around us did not dry out as the sun did not get to it. The points that other campers refer to did not bother us but yes, having to walk a lot further on for the toilets from the shower block was a nuisance but we knew this from the campsite details page. Having the train station and pub so close was certainly a bonus. Enjoyed our stay.

Lovely site

We recently spent four nights here. Delightful. Why? Very welcoming and helpful wardens. Superb location in a series of 'sites' within the site therefore increasing tranquility. A wide range of wild flowers and insects. Ideally placed for train to Dorchester and Weymouth. Good selection of walks and cycle rides in quiet lanes. Local pub offers a good range of food with discount for CC members. An excellent coffee shop in Moreton which was the home of TE Lawrence. Only downside - separate shower and toilet blocks but we knew this in advance so not a problem. Will certainly return!

In A Forest!

Spent a few days at this site recently, not really our cup of tea as its a forest type site and it all gets walked into the caravan. Not keen on the Cluvus dry toilet and the fact that the shower block was separate. The pitches were either alongside the local railways line (train every half hour for 12hrs) or alongside a very busy road, so not the quietest of sites. Will not visit again, but I'm sure it would be ideal for some people.

August break

Just returned from 8 night stay at Crossways. A lovely site but not sure if we would go back. Staff are excellent and maintain the site to an excellent level. The toilets are not a problem, except when windy! Smell a bit then. Site has a dog walk but dog must be on lead, which is a problem for us as our dog will not do her business when on a lead!! We had to take a 10 walk down the very busy road to playing field. Its the only site were my 9 year old has not found someone to play with. This may be down to the lay out of site. People tend not to talk to each other. Shame.

beautiful forest site

Crossways is set in beautiful forest land with many different wildlife including almost tame deer. The Wardens as usual do a fantastic job and one of them (sorry forget his name ) makes fantastic wooden models out of local dead wood such as a steam engine and trucks. My only gripe is a severe lack of dedicated toilet/shower blocks the shower block that are there are dowdy and need updating better still install toilet /showers the toilets are not the usual flush type therese are combustible just dont look down the hole LOL !
