Easy to find. A very warm welcome from Joan and John, with a nice cuppa, and a treat for the dogs. Field has a slight slope but there are some blocks around if you do not have your own. Facilities clean. The daily visits from the deer were very nice. One evening I was stood with 22 deer around me, hand feeding 6 of them. Lots of places to visit which are close by. A very relaxing break, thank you both.
Lovely CL
Great welcome by John & Joan with the offer of a tea or coffee. Attracted to the site because of the deers. We were not disappointed! The deers come right up to the caravan awning to say hello and even bought their 2 babies for a stroke and some treats. We will return during the winter months as it is a great base for dorsets many attractions. Access very easy. Thanks Joan and John....see you again soon.

A picturesque place in the country
A friendly warm welcome by the owners Joan and John with the offer of a cuppa. The deer don't fail to make you go ah! a nice feeling when they let you hand feed them. A big toilet room available, Good base for walks, Dog love it here as they have the freedom to run on site as long as the others don't mind. Train station a few minutes down the road for a trip to Weymouth. And also Frampton arms pub/restaurant opposite the station .
Peaceful?
A friendly warm welcome by the owners, with the offer of a cuppa. The deer don't fail to make you go ah! a nice feeling when they let you hand feed them. The site is sloping, but plenty of levelling blocks are supplied, big toilet room. Good base for walks, NT properties and towns. Not sure how other reviewers came about their peace and tranquil marks? main road noise is constant til dark, and tractors start going by every morning at about 6am! Plus right next to the Caravan Club site entrance road with more traffic noise. Speaking to others on site found the same. No mobile phone signal for those interested.
Here again
We visit this CL often love it here, also enjoy the hospitality of Joan and John. The dog cant wait to get out of the car he knows he'll get a bicuit, seeing the deer and feeding them is another pleasure. And there's no need for hours in the car travelling to get go resorts, and places of interest. we will be back again :-)

A great little site
I have visited this CL a few times. It has now improved greatly as the quarry no longer appears to be working. It was a bit annoying but only worked 9 - 5. A welcome cup of tea or coffee is a nice touch when you arrive and you feel looked after until the owners wave you goodbye. The site is in an green field which attracts local deer which my grandchildren found wonderful. The site is near some lovely Dorset heath and is close to weymouth and Swanage. A great place to stay.

Lovely ......
The offer of a cuppa on arrival, even though it was late on a cold Friday evening, down to the semi tame herd of of deer, a lovely spot to stay, easy acces to the site and surrounding area, yes a little damp underfoot but what do you expect if staying on a CL in February! John and Joan are delightful, warm and welcoming owners, the site is well maintained, and the pub down the road is lovely too (short walk, with footpath, but not an open all day pub). We will definitely return here for another quick weekend break.

A Wonderful Few Days
It is the first time ever that on arriving at a camp site that we were asked if we would like a cup of tea / coffee before we settle down in our camper. How very kind. John and Joan are a wonderful couple, and very thoughtful. We only had time to stay for 2 nights but would have loved to have stayed longer.
We were informed of the quarry work taking place near by, but it didn't affect us in any way.
The location was perfect for us and having deer visit us during our stay was an added bonus.
Thank you John and Joan
