 We spent the first two weeks of the school holidays at this site, and stayed in the stable field. First week site was much quieter about 70% occupied, 2nd week fully occupied but still a nice quiet site with no night noise (only heard their donkeys once!)
The shower facilities in stable field are fantastic best I have ever been to, they are all family sized rooms, no more trying to fit 3 of us in a small poky space, and they all have a toilet and sink in as well, they also have some family ones down in the main field as well.
Pitches nice and large you get 8x 6 for your tent and 8 x 6 for your car, outdoor dining/play space.
There were queues for showers etc but that is expected at peak times, we normally waited until 4pm when we came off the beach and had no problem. Site has laundry facilities and I had no trouble getting a machine.
Plenty to do in the area, the abbots bury passport was good value for the three attractions, though there is no way I would pay singularly for the swanary or children's play farm, since they are only half a day attractions.
North Forte was surprisingly interesting a lot more underground that I hadn't expected, Lovely child friendly sea in weymouth its nice and calm and shallow for quite a distance.
Weymouth Whitewater was worth every penny (good report treat for our boys). Largest supermarket close to site was ASDA which was very busy.
On site shop very handy for bread milk, and camping supplies. You can walk the coastal path into Weymouth 2/12 hours if you follow the coastal path all the way there.

We stayed in East Fleet Farm campsite last week of July/ 1st week of August. Our pitch was on the Stable field
Fantastic facilities and so well maintained. In a beautiful setting with land and seascapes surrounding.
Checking in easy at the very well stocked shop/ reception. Pitches flat and well kept. We had EHU.
A family Bar and restaurant on site serving basic pub grub but plentiful and good. Many staff on hand and hard working. Prices, We thought, were fair.
Fantastic location for sightseeing throughout Dorset. Must visits we recommend…. Abbotsbury. Beautiful village, swannery and Sub Tropical gardens. (Also farm but as we were child free…we didn’t go) also access to car park for Chesil Beach with coastal walk…. Stunning !
Poole on Tues eve for the big bike meeting. Try the Fish dishes in the Poole Inn before paying inflated prices at restaurants! FAB!
Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door. Stunning. Park at one and a slightly strenuous walk to the other is THE way to see and appreciate it all.
Could go on…. Weymouth a lovely seaside and Harbour town.
Make good use of Park and ride to save the nightmare of parking / driving through Weymouth and Dorchester.
Facilities on Stable field were great. Sadly a lack of sanitary bins in toilets and shower blocks left us subjected to some horrible sights. I really think this needs addressing!
Washing up area indoors and great.
Laundry facilities on site in another field. Great !
Play area indoor and out… great for children… though we didn’t have any!
The shower blocks had queues from 8ish till 10. 30 ish…. As we weren’t in a rush. It didn’t trouble us. Good hot showers with plenty of room!
Get up in the night to view the sky…. I have never seen a sky so beautiful and starry! Stunning.

OVERVIEW **** (out of a maximum *****)
Would definitely use this site again.
Right on the coast, at the end of a country lane. Very quiet setting. Not a small site (350 pitches), hence only four stars, but very well sectioned off by hedging, dividing up the 3 fields. Generous pitches. Flat or gently sloping pitches. Beautiful setting, right on the coast with lovely rolling Dorset hills for a backdrop. They allow dogs, but all the owners were very responsible - didn't see one lump of poo in 6 days.
FACILITIES *****
Amazing. Beautiful free showers. Plentiful hot water. We stayed in the 'stable field' - each individual shower unit had its own walk-in shower, loo and wash basin. Wow - luxury! Wish I could give it 6 stars.
Shop is extremely well stocked for provisions and camping/caravanning stuff.
There is an Inn on site, which we didn't visit. Don't let this put you off - it's unobtrusive and makes no noise.
MAINTENANCE *****
Extremely well maintained (best I've ever been to). Shower blocks absolutely immaculate at all times. Site clean & tidy. Faultless.
STAFF *****
Superb - knowledgeable, helpful from the very first phone call to the moment we left, very friendly, smiling, with lots of handouts for you (bus timetables, walks, etc).
WALKS *****
Lots of lovely coastal walks, hill walks and countryside walks. The added bonus is that you can walk into Weymouth town (2. 5 miles along the main road, or 6 miles around the coastal path).
COST ***
Average - I paid £159 for 6 nights, high season, with electric hookup, for a very generous pitch. You can book online. The site has Internet WiFi, currently provided by ParkWiFi, but their rates are far too high for me (1hour = £4, 1day = £7, 3days = £14, 7days = £19)

Stayed here for two nights on our tour of the south. Two adults and two children. Great views. Very friendly staff, great facilities.
There's a bus from the campsite into Weymouth twice a day, perfect for us. The kids loved the play area. There is a motorhome service point. The shop was very well stocked with everything you could want. And more.
Four washing machines in the block by our field, so I didn't have to wait to do the washing. Surprised at the size of the site, but never seemed overcrowded, we will return.

Just returned from a 1 week holiday with our three children and had a really fantastic time. The site is very well located, clean and tidy and the toilet block was cleaned regularly as well.
The camp-site looks over part of Chesil beach, with lovely views. There is also a pub which we didn't use, so cannot comment on this. We have a daughter who uses a wheelchair, she found the site and amenities very wheelchair friendly.
The staff were friendly and helpful and the shop was very well stocked (although a little bit expensive £1. 30 for a small tub of margarine!)
This is definitely a site for families and children have a lovely playground with swings, climbing frames, slides etc, it shuts at dusk, so no screaming kids way into the night. We particularly enjoyed the Morris Dancing on Wednesday night and our children enjoyed taking part in the dancing.
On the whole a fantastic campsite, which I would visit again with the children. If travelling without the children, I would personally go for something a little quieter.

We have stayed at East Fleet for the past 6 years, it's a firm favourite for the whole family (including the dogs) There are 3 fields available for tents and tourers.
The best pitches/shower block are in the upper 'stable field' but you can only pitch there for a 7 day stay (Saturday-Saturday) We usually stay in the lower field which is nearest the fleet lagoon. Beautiful walks and views along the coast can be accessed directly from the park. There is one shower block shared by the mid and lower fields, they're cleaned regularly, and are adequate, there are several separate family shower rooms.
A well stocked shop with friendly staff has all your camping needs and food essentials. We took advantage of the on site bar/restaurant which we found to be great value for money.
A local bus service runs to Weymouth beach daily from the site. However we took the car to Weymouth daily, parking was ample if you get to the sea front before 10am.
There is a small play area in the middle field with some play equipment, although our 10year old prefers the new indoor games room with table tennis and pool tables situated by the
Camp shop. We highly recommend this site for families and couples alike, it's quieter at the lagoon end with lots of atmosphere in the mid and stable fields.
Only downside to East Fleet is beware of the speed bumps on the long access road, they are very high in places

Just got back from two weeks at this site, first visit and I can say we were impressed by the facilities and location.
We were a party of 7 in two vans and the side by side pitches were great, plenty of space and with great views of the farm and coast.
We only ate in the bar once but the food was good, the drinks are not the cheapest but about what you would expect. The shower block in the top field was great with family sized cubicles although it did get busy and you sometimes had a wait of 10 - 15 mins ( they are building a new block for next year ) the shop was excellent and all the staff very friendly.
One thing I would say is that they are very keen on the no noise after 11. 00pm rule as we were asked by the bar manager to keep the noise down one night due to a complaint from an other party, we were sat talking in the awning with no music ! I presume it was the same family who were up at the crack of dawn shouting at their kids pity the rule is not enforced prior to 8. 00am as it says.
All in all a great site and well placed for the surrounding area, we will definitely go back in the future.

Stayed here for two nights and had a wonderful time.
Staff were friendly and helpful, facilities were great, nice clean toilets and showers. Best thing was no buttons to press in the showers, so could get that lovely hot shower without loosing flow, fantastic!
Grounds are well kept with lovely views. Wind seems to pick up of an evening, so wind break was needed.
Bar setting was great, shop is well stocked.
Was about two mile easy walk into Weymouth, perfect for us and our dogs.
Would definitely return here!

Just got home from a fantastic weekend at East Fleet, as always. We have visited at least once a year for the last four years and haven't been disappointed yet.
So much so we are going back again in two weeks with friends. Site is very clean as are the shower/toilet areas, loads of hot water. The pub is great, good food and nice for a pint, dogs allowed in as well.
The staff are always polite and helpful. Lovely walks for the dog, he is glad to be home for a rest. Just a great site simple as that!

Wow what a fabulous site!
From the fab online booking ( very last minute too!) and website to the actual site and lovely owners
We only stayed one night as were visiting relatives in the area, who were buying a boat
Well laid out site with spotlessly clean showers & loos.
Well stocked shop and the pub looks good, but we didn't use it
Only gutted that we didn't get to spend more time on site!
We will be back to do so though !
Very windy at some point during the night but to be expected on the coast
Definitely recommended
