We chose this site based on previous reviews and on the whole it did live up to most of our expectations.
Unfortunately, the weather was not great which highlighted a couple of negative points.
The first problem we had was drainage. The water table was very easily saturated and a stream and puddle quickly formed in the middle of our living area. There was a lot of surface water all over the site but this did drain quickly once the rain stopped. This may be less of a problem for caravans than for tents.
The other issue is the dishwashing facilities. I always feel that this is not given enough importance, and while the rest of the site was well thought out in terms of layout, the sinks were open to the elements which did restrict washing up to more clement weather as the wind tunnel effect took away our dishes!
And as usual with 'free' hot water, the showers were press button types, with an average 5 seconds per press. This makes showering very frustrating and more time consuming. They are also not directable so parents with young children take note as there were lots of screaming youngsters in the showers! We learnt that some showers were better than others and even though the site was busy there were never any queues. There are electric sockets in the toilet blocks which are great for hair dryers etc. And the toilet roll and paper handtowels never run out. The whole site is kept immaculately clean and tidy, helped by considerate users.
Locally there is not much within walking distance, other than the local club held in the church hall, where we had a good evening watching a Wurzels tribute band! There is a local car boot every Sunday.
You need to drive to Axminster for Tesco or Bridport for Morrisons. Charmouth is great for fossil hunting. The Chinese takeaway in Lyme Regis is not so good. The bread rolls sold in reception are lovely.
All in all a good site, I do tend to tell it as it is based on our experiences. The clincher is would I go back? The answer, yes.
We visited the shrubbery for a week camping with three children ages 1,8 & 10 all well catered for. We were greeted by the owner Margaret with a smile. She was very welcoming, and showed us personally to our pitch. Lots of room for children to play as even though they were fully booked, there is plenty of room between each pitch, and no overcrowding. We requested that we pitch near the play area, excellent for us as we could watch the children at all times, but did mean we were adjacent to main road which can get quite noisy at night as cars seem to speed by (although after 2 nights we got used to it). The campsite was very well maintained. Very clean toilets/shower block, with one block quite old but very clean. Another block which looks brand new, both spotless at any time of the day or night. Also handy bathroom for hire 1/2 hour slots for £1, very useful for younger children. Shop has quite limited essentials but petrol garage outside entrance has bigger selection.
Overall a lovely family site, all staff very helpful and friendly and we would definitely visit again.
We came across this site via UK Campsites and what a find it was, On arrival you are taken around site to choose a pitch most suited to your needs in a golf buggy ie: we have small children so we opted for a pitch overlooking play area (which was excellent )and close to the toilet block. All pitches are level and very well maintained, the toilet block was always clean although I must admit I found the showers a little hot. You have an on site shop for daily provisions with a Tesco only 5 miles away in Axminster.You will struggle to find a sandy beach around here Lyme has a very small one but does tend to get very crowded, most are pebbles.
We visited the caves at Beer which I found very interesting but our children did get bored and it is very cold inside. Overall a great site for any family
We booked this site after reading reviews here and were not disappointed. It really is a lovely site, with level pitches, lots of open space for kids to play and NO PITCH LINES! There is a small but well stocked shop, all facilities and a little crazy golf course. The kids play area is great and we were lucky enough to be able to see the play area from our caravan so our children were able to have lots of freedom.
Our 10 year old son made lots of friends and enjoyed the nightly footy match (when it wasn't raining!).
The site is within easy reach of Lyme Regis, Beer, Seaton, Sidmouth and we also visited a bit further afield.
On arrival we were given the adults only part of the site which was flat quiet and very clean.
We only stayed for a couple of nights and only used the toilets/showers that were at the entrance and they were very clean and very roomy because the shower toilet and sink were all in the same room which was great idea and it felt like you were in your own private bathroom.
Plus points.
Friendly and helpful staff
Flat and clean pitches
Excellent toilets/showers
Peaceful and quiet most of the day
Minus points
Hard to find a bad point apart from we didn't find any local bars/restaurants in walking distance.

Welcoming tents, motorhomes and caravans, this family friendly site offers spacious grass pitches with or without electric.

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
Owners and staff very helpful and friendly, given a choice of pitches on arrival.The pitches are very spacious with ample water and electric supplies. The shower blocks are very clean with plenty of hot water. Reception and shop seem to be open all hours, with all the basics available. A child friendly site with play park facilities, my only minor criticism of the site is the lack of a larger green for ball games. All in all a first class site without premium prices.
This is almost a perfect site. Very well maintained and laid out but managing to appear casual and welcoming. This is achieved by having a number of small hedges which face alternate ways so that caravans do not appear regimented and have their own little private area, but at the same time the camp is open and accessible to everyone. There are three toilet blocks. The main one is in the centre of the field, made of brick.A second block at the far end of the field is on a brick plinth but made of wood showers in this block are individually entered from the outside. Behind the Reception block is the very best though. In this block are just four rooms, housing in each a toilet, a wash basin and a shower with mirror and shaver points. I was lucky enough to be sited near this block and every morning it was like walking into your own bathroom! All the toilet blocks are clean, well maintained, tiled throughout with free hot water.
On arrival to the site the staff were very helpful to two novice motorhome eejits allowing us to borrow hook up lead which was godsend for fridge. The site is to be recommended for its cleanliness and first class facilities lovely flat spacious pitches. The coastal walk from Lyme Regis to Seaton is a must if you are up for a challenge hahahaha. Do take survival kit. Shops and eating places are plentiful in Lyme Regis scenery outstanding,fossil hunts for the kids. One of our personal favourite areas will always be back love it.
An easy camp site to find with a nice wide entrance. Garage next to the site (no noise heard). Not a huge site (with no club house which we do not mind) and very pretty with hedges and shrubs separating the pitches. Friendly and helpful reception from the owners and staff. Shown to our pitch by Margaret driving a type of golf cart and she was keen to see that we were happy with our pitch, suggesting several places. She put us in the lower field as it was quieter (I think because we had no children with us and are seniors). Good hook ups, 4 to a pole and looked well maintained. The reception is close to this part of the site and had a nice shop. Modern built facility with two wetrooms (toilet.Wash basin & shower all in one) for ladies and one for gents, one for disabled. Washing up facilities. Another larger block with tiled floor and more single showers and toilets etc was in the upper field. All very clean when I visited. Plenty of fresh water stand pipes dotted around the site and several waste water and toilet disposal points. Play area for children near the upper field which looked nice and from the sounds emitting from it, was fun. Saw several dogs taking their owners for a walk in the specified dog walking area. No noise at night.
Sidmouth has, on the cliffs on the Exmouth side of town, a series of interlocking beautiful gardens with a cafe/restaurant. A white painted Jacobs ladder (steps) lead down to a narrow coastal path where you can walk into Sidmouth with the steep gnarled stone clifs one side and the sea crashing against the rocks on the other. Quite spectacular.
This was a lovely campsite about 3 miles outside Lyme Regis. The site was quiet and had a small children's play area, but also had plenty of grass space for the children to play football. The toilets were clean and the showers clean, hot and included in the price. The site itself was very reasonably priced and the receptionists friendly and helpful. It has a tourist information room and a small shop. We didn't go into the local village, but we went into Lyme Regis which is lovely. Just one warning - if you arrive late and plan to buy fish and chips make sure you get into Lyme Regis before 10.00pm as that's when the chip shops shut. We ended up at a Kebab shop in Seaton, about 6 miles further west! Also, don't camp near the children's play area - inconsiderate parents seemed to think it would be OK to let their children play on the equipment, screaming and shouting at 7 o'clock in the morning.
However, this is a site to be recommended. We'd certainly go back.

We stayed at the Shrubbery and the beginning of July and had a great time apart from the weather. Our two grandchildren loved the playpark and open space. We have stayed before but the park has been updated with new reception area and shop. The toilet blocks are well lite even during the night. Facilities are well taken care of and staff are always friendly and polite, great family park and the surrounding area is very picturesque, Lyme Regis, Seaton worth a walk about and the Pilot Boat Inn (lyme Regis) do a lovely lunch. We will certainly be back.
Have just come back from Shrubbery, we found on arrival the staff very friendly and helpful, we were give a choice of pitches with EHU which the lady took us all to, so we could decide. The site is very flat and very well layed out, we found all the facilities kept spotlessly clean and were very close to what it looks like a new shower / toilet block. The showers near to us comprised of four individual upvc doors which lead into an enclosed room with seat and a shower enclosure, which you could lock behind you, very secure!
The kids enjoyed the brilliant play area, and crazy golf and as always made friends straight away.At the beginning of week it was fairly quiet only two tents, and majority of caravans of which I believe there was a rally, though the site never seemed crowded, more tents arrived towards the weekend.
There is a basic shop onsite for the essentials however there is a garage two minutes walk away which stocked further items.
It was the first time we had been to Lyme Regis, and found it was a lovely little place to wander around, full of little streets and quaint shops, we used the beach nearly every day and the kids loved it, nice golden sand area which I believe was imported and safe to paddle in.
The surrounding area is lovely we had a day in Weymouth, and visited the Seaton Tramway, though we found this a little steep £25.50 for 2 adults and a 7 & 4 year old, however we enjoyed it also Beer was a lovely little place.
All in all we will definetly be booking again to go to Shrubbery, and have told all our friends about how nice a time we had.
Stayed for a long weekend at the end of May. What a great find this site was. Very well laid out with excellent facilities as described in the earlier posts.
This was our first visit to Lyme Regis, which is really nice and not very touristy. Not the best beach for sun bathing as it's pebble but nice for walks in the evening. There is a small imported-sand area near to the cob/harbour but I should imagine it would be very busy in the Summer.
Fossil hunting is the big thing on the Jurrasic Coast and we were not disappointed. My son came home with a big handful and would have tried to carry off the dustbin-lid sized ammonites he found had he been strong enough!
We visited this site the first bank holiday in May! Just 2 adults and one 4 man tent!
A fantastic site! We loved it!
The pitches of flat, the majority with electric hook up and tap very close by!
We were one of the only tents on the site that weekend, as nearly all the others were campervans and caravans. The lady owner seemed surprised by all the motorhomes that weekend!
Not so many families, more older couples with seasonal pitches. All very friendly!
The facilities were great. 3 toilet and shower blocks which were heated. Washing up sinks and chemical toilet disposal. Everything kept spotless!
There is a childrens play area. The shop has a few essentials.
Only a short drive from Lyme Regis which has a lovely beach etc.
My family and I stayed here for a week on spur of the moment, I phoned them the day before and managed to reserve a pitch!(a week with virtually no rain shock horror ;) The site is clean and tidy with great shower/toilet facilities. (There is also a laundry area with washing machines etc.) The kids play area was great my 5yr old loved being able to go to the toilets and play area by herself. The shop is well equipped from the usual essentials to some nice treats. They also freeze your ice packs for you for a very small fee (I think it was something like 10p each!) By a road which has the odd car on it, which you only really notice at night, but soon get used to. The staff were lovely and very helpful. It is nicely located with a 5 minute car drive into Lyme Regis, best holiday I've had in years, will be going back this year
