Weekend stay in the snow.
Apart from heavy snow during our stay we found this site was fine. Good sized hard standings although when busy the roads are narrow on the site & some may find it a challenge to park their caravan. The shower blocks were immaculate & staff friendly. I asked for a sea view which we were given but had it been busy my view would of not been so pleasing. Beautiful countryside around the site but families should be aware that the lagoon water edge area is not suitable for use as a beach, it was very unappealing & I wouldn’t even want to walk on it.
Coastal path at the bottom of the site but unfortunately at this time of year it was very muddy.
Families will love the bar & play area but for me I personally think it would seem far too congested at busier times & the whole rows of caravans looking into each other’s windows just isn’t for me. I therefore think I should try a CL which may be more suitable.
Fab Holiday beginning of October 2017
We recently stayed here for a week at the beginning of October, had no issues what so ever, we stayed on a hard standing service pitch, which wasn't level, but when you look around at the site, a lot of the pitches slope, but most caravan owners are prepared for this.
Toilets were lovely and clean and warm, and the shower block was the same, the heated floor was great fully received after a days walking, hot shower, and they were clean.
The Barn (Bar) was open Thursday, Friday and Saturday whilst we were there, they were very friendly and welcoming, and the area with the log burner in and the settees around was lovely, and good way to get to talk to other holiday makers. Dogs are welcome and they encourage you to order your takeaway and you can eat it in front of the fire.
We did walk into Chickerell down the footpath, then a bit of road, it takes about 20 minutes, please get a torch and charge your batteries, it is pitch black, but a good adventure!!! I would recommend The Turks Head in Chickerell, for when the bar on site isn't open, friendly staff and the food is lovely, dogs welcome too.
We had a great time, walking, biking, fossil hunting and crabbing.

Good and Bad
We stayed here for a week late September 2017.
The site has stunning views over the lagoon but has little else to recommend it. The majority of the pitches slope significantly - and the width of some of the hardstanding pitches is so small that if you use an awning, half of it will be on the grass !
Other 'complaints' would be the lack of lighting at night, only warm water in the shower block, and a very poor WiFi (advertised as covering the whole site).
Notwithstanding all of this, the site was quiet and the facilities clean.

Fantastic site.
This is the best site we have visited yet.
Stayed here1st July 2017 for 1 week.
Friendly helpfull staff. The shop is full of equipment for vans and motorhomes at reallistic prices.
The bar at night has some lovely real ales for consumption.
The fish and chip van opens 2 nights a week.
This is a lovely well set up campsite.
We will be back in May 2018 for 2 weeks.
Lovely site!
• Friendly and helpful staff and owners, particularly Jackie (bar manager) who is a top dog whisperer.
• Very well kept site: clean and tidy, not too large, with a good array of pitches.
• Shower block has family sized rooms with shower, loo and handbasin with hairdryers at the end. Again, all clean and tidy.
• Fish and chip van was open during our visit. Great fish. Pizza van also on site. Neither is open all the time which is a plus in our view.
• Perfect for dogs with easy access to the Coast Path and foreshore (can be muddy).
• Good short walk along to the Old Moonfleet Church which is a special place.
• Access road was fine and I am a novice MH driver……
• Playground has creative and well built equipment. There is a field with goalposts and running around space. Great for children.
• Skylarks, masses of butterflies, amazing sunsets.
• Last but not least – proper Palmer’s beer from Bridport. Go Dorset!
Not the best site
Didn't receive a warm welcome, not very accommodating either. Only one motorhome service point which needs updating. Had to pay £28 for the Friday before may day, could understand it the Friday was a bank holiday too! All taps - shower, sink and dish washing are all push button so took ages to wash the pots. The family room is in the disabled toilet of the pub. Not great to take my one year old through the tables outside where people were smoking. The room was cold and between the ladies and gents toilets in the pub. New shower block wasn't brilliant, you can't regulate the water in the shower and there's only one hand dryer. Loved Weymouth old harbour and Portland, would definitely visit again but wouldn't stay at this site.

Prices gone up, standards gone down
Have stayed at this site may times before but at £28 a night mid Sept to stay in just a field is way overpriced . The Stable field is just a field but for £30 a night you can have a hard standing at the start of the field. Toilet block has large showers, clean but need a good dusting in the out of reach places but the old toilet block in other field was in my opinion unfit for use . Wont use again at these prices will use one of the nearby CL's at £15 a night with just as good views and close to Weymouth

A jewel that needs a polish
A beautiful location of the site that will be hard to beat on the caravan club network. The site its self could be one of the best if someone paid a little attention to detail which you would expect on a club site. Shower water pressure very low, Push button shower activation not always working, Toilets not fixed to the floor properly causing them to rock, Cloths pegs broken and not replaced, Shower block doors held open with mop and bucket, Grass cut and left on path and not swept up, all small things that let down a very good site.
nice addition
Overall this is a very nice site, staff were friendly, amenities clean and in working order. The particular pitch we had (69) was ideal with hardstanding and a bush barrier to our 'social side' of the van. My only negative on the site would have to be the approach/departing road. Too narrow for most of its length for my liking, but unfortunately I don't think anything could or would be done about this. Would I go again.....probably yes but with that narrow lane I would have second thoughts.
