Just got back from a pleasant stay at manor farm, despite what other reviews said we decided to go, as we fancied a couple of days beach fishing.
I wasn’t disappointed, exactly what I expected, a quiet basic campsite, facilities (2 toilets and 1 shower) are basic but perfectly adequate and clean, electric on our pitch, although I didn’t get to meet the owner, he was very nice on the phone, and I spoke to other campers who said he was lovely 👍,
The location is perfect, around 10 mins nice walk to the beach, great dog walking (dogs are allowed on site) and 10 min walk to a choice of 2 great pubs, small shop/post office and a garage in the village.
If you want all singing /dancing and shiny, this is not the site for you!, if you want piece & quiet, in a great village/beach location then give it a try,
My only negative would be, it would of been nice if the grass was kept a little shorter. via mobile
We cannot fault this site, always a pleasure to visit and we visit regularly. Yes, the toilet block is tired, though we use use our own facilities, but that can be the only gripe as the setting is perfect.
We’ve stayed in all parts of the site (though we do have a favourite that Peter tries to accommodate us with, for which we are very grateful), and there are times when, after prolonged heavy rain, being sited in the ‘Yard’ can be favourable.
Two excellent pubs within a few yards, two clean beaches where you can always find a quiet spot, a village shop/post office which sells plenty of local produce and always a friendly welcome and a garage that has a well stocked shop and sells Calor gas.
River walks, cliff walks and quiet country road walks. Rabbits, foxes, weasels, shrews, buzzards, sparrow hawks and peregrines we’ve been entertained by from our pitch, and not forgetting the heron patrolling the river!
If you’re a stargazer then there is little light interference here to spoil the night sky.
Overall a lovely stay in a beautiful part of the country. Very reasonable prices, ‘especially compared to next door!
But as the owners and other campers have suggested, cheap and cheerful with basic amenities. Would I have preferred to pay a few quid more and experience a slight upgrade on the amenities? Yes. The toilet and shower are very tired and although we were fully expecting a basic setup from the outset, I did wonder if we all paid just slightly more and the block be refurbished, then the toilet and shower issue that has been mentioned in previous reviews need not be an issue at all.
That being said, given the price we paid, it was acceptable and we managed to keep clean and refreshed, even with 2 young children in tow. They loved camping in the orchard and we were lucky enough to have it to ourselves most of the time.
It was so peaceful having breakfast in the morning looking out over the trees to the coast. Also excellent access to Freshwater Beach where our friends were staying and a great little shortcut into the village with a great pub on the doorstep and play park for the kids just a few metres down the road.
The village shop sold lovely local produce that we got for breakfast each day. All very close to the campsite. Owners very helpful and polite and gave us great advice on the area and even provided wheelbarrows to help move our stuff to the orchard.
Would love to stay again and explore a bit more of the area. via mobile
Very disappointing did not stay. When we read the reviews they seemed good how wrong we were.
Used CL sites all the time so we are fully aware of what is a CL site.
Arrived quite shocked site very run down we were directed to a tiny piece of land surrounded by weeds rubble etc like been in a scrapyard not enough room to put out a canopy on motorhome.
Yes it was on a farm but very unkempt, we and our friends who were also into motorhome did not stay.
Strongly advise not to use this CL site you will be very disappointed sadly to say site was absolutely terrible via mobile
Only stayed one night on our way home. Peter spoke to us over the phone and was very helpful, but we did not see him on the site. I agree with previous reviews regarding some signage or some sort of map as we struggled to find our way out of the campsite on foot.
Our pitch was on grass with electric and a nice size.
My only complaint is the toilet/ kitchen block. I accept that it’s old and a bit dated. No problem. But it was FILTHY! It really needs a few hours spent on it with some soap and water inside and out.
The shower tray was minging. There was deep grained dirt all around the kitchen. Outside was also terrible with filthy window sills and filled up gutters.
There was a really bad trip hazard as you walked into the door. Some sort of drain?
After Peters lovely introduction over the phone I was really disappointed.
Just a bit of care and attention and this could be a sweet little site. via mobile
Set in 15 acres of breathtaking countryside,right next door to the Jurassic Coast in Dorset, this site offers stunning views of the Chesil Bank, Fleet Lagoon, and Lyme Bay. Welcoming tents, motorhomes and caravans, this family friendly site offers spacious grass pitches with or without electric. For kids there's an outdoor heated swimming pool, 3 acre playing area including slides, swings and more.
Facilities include toilets, showers, washing up, launderette, and WifI. There is an onsite shop and off-licence. The Bar in the Barn at the site serves a delicious food and offers a variety of entertainment, including live music. As well as the attractions of Weymouth's beach and harbour, this is a great base to explore family attractions throughout South and West Dorset. Find out more here
Lovely little site with electric within easy walking distance of the beach, village with 2 pubs and the post office.
Also close to Lyme Regis and Weymouth and West Bay is walkable along the beach, takes around 35 minutes which we did on two occasions. Had to get the bus back one time as the tide was in, check the last bus times though as the last one was 8. 23pm.
Can't comment on the facilities as we used our own during our stay but they do look like they need updating.
The owner, Peter is very chatty and knowledgeable regarding walks in the surrounding area.
For £20 per night we would definitely come back. via mobile
The campsite is in an excellent location for Burton Bradstock village and it's two excellent pubs.
There is also a relatively short walk to Freshwater Beach which is dog friendly and has excellent water quality.
We were disappointed with our stay as the owner seemed intent to squash in as many vehicles as possible, despite it supposedly being restricted to five!
We were given a hard standing pitch in front of an old stable block and were hemmed in by vehicles on both sides.
I reckon there were at least double the number of vehicles there should have been on site.
Although we had EHU, to be charged the full rate of £20 despite being squashed in like sardines was a bit naughty! 4/10 via mobile
Manor Farm campsite is a lovely small site surrounded by fields yet within very convenient walking distance of the village of Burton Bradstock and the two lovely pubs. It’s also a short and pleasant walk to both Hive Beach and Freshwater Bay.
The pitches are generously sized and have electric hook up but the other facilities are very basic (a point which, in fairness, the owner was a great lengths to explain).
There are two toilets and one shower which is coin operated. They are adequate if you don’t have onboard facilities. We would have found some signage helpful because the first time we walked into the village we went the long way round, not realising that there was a lovely short cut through the farm.
There is also a nice path (good for dog walks) from the site directly to Freshwater Bay but, again, it isn’t signed and we had to discover it for ourselves.
Peter greeted us and was such a friendly and informative host. I was really appreciative of all the local knowledge. He showed us where the facilities were and where to pitch.
The site is part of a farm yard with some industrial units, but it is quiet, tranquil and a lovely place to explore on foot. Too many walks to mention, but with the beach less than 10 minutes walk away it was our obvious choice as only here for a night.
The Anchor pub serves delicious fresh seafood. And it's very dog friendly too.
We will definitely be coming back for a longer stay. 😃
