Absolutely stunning hidden gem of tranquility
What can I say? This to me is exactly what a CL should be. A perfect tranquil escape with the essential facilities (water and waste), lots of open space, park where you like, lovely views and absolute peace and quiet. For years we have toured all over Europe and its twelve years since we did a south west tour. I forgot how busy it can get and this is early June! So to come back after a day out on the scooter to this lovely little hideaway is simply bliss. We booked on for three nights initially (still here as I write this) but will be staying on for sure. Only us here which on the one side is great for us but its a shame others have not discovered this spot. Its pretty much wild camping in a lovely field just off the lane but without the worry of being moved on or being hemmed in by other vans.
We are in a motorhome and as said carry a scooter on the back and its ideal for that but even if you don't have secondary transport there are walks from the CL and you could easily walk or cycle to the beach at Seatown crossing only one busy road down the narrow lanes to the beach two miles away which is a delightful little place. Fantastic walks along the cliffs including the highest point on the entire south coast, The Golden Cap. Water at the top of the field, waste at the bottom discreetly in the corner.
As others have said the final quarter of a mile or so of lane up to the CL is narrow. However its perfectly passable and the chances of you meeting something coming the other way is very very slim I would say and certainly not something big. Ours is a 7.5 metre Kontiki coachbuilt.
