 Had a week here - family of 5 - kids 3-10 - had a lovely time despite the patchy weather and the wind which was roaring in from the Fleet. Found the reception very friendly and the shop had anything and everything that you could forget or need. The additional shower block in the other field has really taken the pressure off the toilets as I only had to queue once on a Bank holiday for the shower.
Lovely view from the site and a walk along the coast , lots of space to ride bikes around - actually as the shower block was quite far from our tent we borrowed them too! Great field for flying kites and playing games next door to lower field.
Only gripes were that the tent pitches really sloped so careful angling of tent to ensure that we didn't all roll into each other and that the distance between tents across the way in the hedged off sections was very narrow a bare minimum. For the first few days we were opposite a dominant group of 3 large families who took over all the communal space between tents and it was quite noisy and oppressive .and we like kids!
There was bad traffic getting into Weymouth from Dorchester any time of day - I think it's worth getting an OS map of the area and turning off right to Nottington and following directions to chickerell then when on main fleet road turn left towards weymouth and right at campsite traffic lights.

Carefully selected this site to meet the specification of what we wanted and it was perfect. There were four in the party (two adults and two 12 year old girls). The pitch sites were a good size (we have a large tent). Reception was always well manned and the staff were very helpful. Good atmosphere in the pub with excellent food. We even had a couple of bits of entertainment on two nights in the form of climbing wall and Morris dancers. The shower/toilet block was large in size, clean and all facilities well maintained. They even had hand cream/disinfection available. A thorough enjoyable holiday was had by all and the site is highly recommended.

We stayed here with our 3 children (7, 5, and 1) for 3 nights this summer and had a great time. We are new to camping and so wanted somewhere easy for the kids.The site was spotless (despite being almost full in August), the staff were incredibly nice and helpful (e.g. Finding details of films at local cinemas when it was raining) and the whole atmosphere was relaxed.
There is a pub on site which sells OK food, teh shop was quite well stocked and reasonably priced.
Would definitely go there again.

Excellent campsite that we would definitely return to, we had a great pitch with sea views of Chesil beach. The easily accessable dog walks were scenic and ideal for dog owners. The showers were clean and easily accessable. My son enjoyed the children's park. The camp shop also stocked all the essentials i.e. Bread, milk and farm produce which is handy. We didn't visit the bar but it looked nice. Weymouth town centre only 10 minutes drive away.

Yep, we loved this place too. Good facilities, yet didn't feel at all commercial.
As ever though, I guess it depends on the pitch you get. They've got allocated pitches, and when we arrived we were given a pitch we'd have been quite disappointed with - the first one as you come into the main site, right next to the car park, the reception, the track/road to the rest of the site, along with noisy cattle grid, and the pub. However, the very helpful staff allowed us to swap to one a little more quiet and sheltered - though as it was so busy we were very lucky - our new pitch was the last one available. Very relieved.
There are three fields, Upper, Lower and Stable. So if you're in a tent without EHU I'd recommend asking for the top end of the Lower Field. This space has a series of hedges running parallel with the lagoon and they provide a sheltered quiet spot (depending on your neighbours of course, but ours were all great) and no cars going directly past. The lower end of the Lower Field is closest to the lagoon (good sunsets), another field available for kite flying or football (with donkeys) and the coastal foot path. The Upper Field is closest to the facilities (though we weren't exactly miles off!) but doesn't offer all the shelter and hedges and seemed to have a busier atmosphere. The Stable Field is another open space behind the main reception area and the farm buildings, though we didn't go through there.
The pitches themselves are generous, 6m by 8m plus space for the car. Our 5 yr old enjoyed being so near to a real farm, and we would very happily go back here again for a weekend, if only it was closer to home!

WOW! What a lovely site! It was our first family camping trip & we were a bit dubious! we have an 8yr old, nearly 6yr old & nearly 3yr old.they loved it! The park was not too far for the older two to pop to on their own (when I eventually let the apron strings go a bit!) & it was situated near the washing up area-so they could go into the park while we were washing up.
The on site shop was brilliant-stocked with everything you could possibly need & if it didnt-a local supermarket was just down the road. The staff were always very friendly & helpful.
The toilet & shower facilities kept very clean & there are lots of them! There are 4 nice family shower rooms; they were big enough to accomodate us all of us at one time!
The water at the washing up area sometimes was not on the hot side, so made washing up greasy breakfast fry up stuff difficult-but it was always hot in the showers.
There are 2 washing machines- which we ended up having to use & a tumble dryer for a fee. On our last few days there, I realised that there are hairdryers there too! & they were free to use!
All the local ammenities are close by & there is a little bus service from the site into Weymouth (our driver was a really nice chap-very helpful to us as we were always laden down with stuff to take to the beach no the push chair!) & reasonably priced for us all - cheaper than paying the parking fees in weymouth centre!
There was a little pub too, but too be honest, we never went to it, although we wouldve probably ventured in there had we not had the kids with us! it did seem nice & was always busy!
Considering this was our first camping expeditioin, we thoroughly enjoyed it & would most certainly recommend this site to anyone. We will definatly go back here again- and at £17 a night, its very good value.

What a fantastic site! We've been camping as a family for the last 8 years and this is easily the best site that we've visited. Our children aged 5 and 10 loved the playground and the large field available for kite flying etc. We visited this site for the first time about 4 years ago and a lot of improvement and investment have since gone into making a good site into a brilliant one. We camped on the new stable field this time and the new facilities here are superb. The family shower rooms are great, having your own individual toilet, shower and washbasin. Even though it was August we never had to wait long for a shower or to wash our dishes.
The on-site pub was good, friendly and reasonably priced. We had two meals here which were really nice. The shop was well equipped and the staff here were also welcoming and helpful.
Our electric hook up also had it's own tap so there were no long trips for water! The site is very family friendly and we didn't experience any loud noise after 11pm. You can access the coastal path directly from the site and there are some nice walks around the surrounding countryside.

Excellent site very clean one of the cleanest we have ever been on pub was excellent and the food was great very reasonably priced would definitely consider going back as it was close to Weymouth beach and not a bad bus ride which picked you up from inside the campsite. Great as you didn't have to worry about trying to park the car the only drawback was not a lot to do on site for the kids if the weather was bad which thankfully it wasn't when we went
overall great site 10/10

We were very lucky with the location of our pitch - close to the shop, excellent shower block and kids play area. This explains why the youngest of our kids voted this the best holiday they have ever had (beating previous holidays in villas with pools in Spain and Italy!). A great base for family days out too, with Weymouth and Portland on the doorstep, and many more attractions within an hour's drive. For adults, the coastal walk (from the South-west corner of the campsite) offers beautiful scenery.

Top site!
Just got back from a fortnight on this site and will be going back next year.
It's only 3 miles from Weymouth and there's a bus stop only half a mile from the site, but beware it's all uphill on the way there.
Shower block was always clean and there are family shower rooms that have a shower, toilet and wash basin.
Bar serves food, which we didn't sample, but it looked good, with generous portions.
Play area is great for kids under about 12.
Shop sells all the usual groceries and stuff.
Only minor grumbles were that the pitches are smaller than we are used to (we've previously used Caravan Club sites) and you have to be off the site by 10 on your day of departure. But PLEASE don't let this put you off, it really is a fantastic site.
