A place to go back to
The Mill House
On arriving we were welcomed by Nigel who was very helpful, a quiet site and well looked after, it was great to see the grass cut and collected. A 5 minute walk to the spar shop for all your needs. We were charged £14 a night for EHU toilet 🚻 and water 💧 what a find. Set right in the middle for places to visit. The Admiral Hood pub you can walk to very friendly and great food.

A little gem…
The Mill House
We stayed here for a few days at the last minute. It’s a beautiful location right in the centre of the village 500 metres from the pub and church, 100 metres to the village shop and Bridport is a 20 minute drive away!
The site is so peaceful and the amount of wildlife around is stunning; the swifts entertain all day with their aerobatics until sunset when the bats take over!
This is such a gem of a site, run by a gem of an owner. Nigel is a proper gentleman, so friendly and helpful! We will be returning soon!

What a perfect site owner
The Mill House
We have done many CL's but this has to be the best in terms of the owner. Nigel came to introduce himself not long after we had set up. He gave us lots of information about places to go and was very welcoming. He kept in touch throughout our four day stay and came to say goodbye the night before we left.
It's a very level site and the grass is kept neat. There had been lot of rain in the previous days so it was fairly wet underfoot but very well drained. It is a very peaceful location, although there was some work being done on a nearby farm, and the village clearly suffers from motorbikes at speed on occasions, but no other road noise!
The on site toilet was kept immaculate, although we did use our own facilities most of the time.
The only difficulty we experienced was finding the site, as although Nigel had given us very explicit instructions, there is no CAMC sign and because it's located behind an industrial building - DSD, we missed the turning initially.
We can absolutely recommend the local pub - the Admiral Hood - a five minute walk from the site. Excellent food and excellent service, even on a busy Sunday evening.
Thank you Nigel - we really appreciate your location.
A perfect place to relax.
The Mill House
A lovely friendly welcome from Nigel who could not have been more caring and helpful. The field is well cut and clippings removed so no tiresome little bits being tracked about. The toilet, whilst elderly was also kept spotlessly clean. A peaceful location with a lovely vista over the neighboring fields and virtually south facing. The village shop across the road is very well stocked and the Admiral Hood pub serves a good menu and also does takeaways. We could not have been more content during our four day break - the cat enjoyed it too!
