A lovely find!
We spent 6 days at this CL and it was lovely! Barn House Retreat is set just off the A35 down a little lane, with excellent wide entrance to the site to accommodate long and wide vans! Ours is 8’ wide and 26’ long. There are a couple of passing places on the lane, but it can be difficult if you do meet another vehicle. Luckily we didn’t!
All the pitches are very spacious, being hard standing with a supply of 16amp electric and water to each one. Waste water must be emptied into the provided drain, so do take a container for your dirty water. There is a CDP and recycling bins in a barn area close to the pitches, but not invasive. Awnings can be erected on to the hard standing or grass unless the grass needs to recover from a previous occupants groundsheet!
There is one pitch that is grass and can be used with the owners agreement. Len, the owner, likes to keep the grass green and healthy, and takes pride in offering a very presentable site for all users. He has placed a couple of benches on a grassed slope in front of the pitches so you can admire the views and relax. A nice touch! It really is just like the photos on the website!
Barn House Retreat is 2.5 miles from Bridport where there is a range of shops and supermarkets. Dorchester also offers the same. There are many places of interest to visit around the area and plenty of walks! There is some traffic noise from the A35, but it’s not a deal breaker and certainly didn’t bother us.
This site is a credit to Len & Sandra, and a fantastic CL for CMCH members. We would definitely stay again if visiting the area!
