Excellent campsite

Wonderful campsite, excellent dog walking field and friendly staff. All the facilities were like new and of a very high standard, we will be back.

Many thanks for your kind review and so glad that you thought it was a wonderful campsite. We look forward to seeing you again.

Very friendly staff

Great system of ID for number plates. We really appreciated this when we were late arriving after a 3 hour drive from home turned into a 4 and a half drive which meant we turned up at 9.30pm! In the dark it was difficult to find our pitch. Maybe a lit-up map or the odd signage for groups of numbers eg 100 - 150 this way etc. Very friendly staff. Great farm shop opposite - for breakfasts, lunches and of course local food. Lovely looking pub set in pretty peaceful village. We will be back!

Two night stay

Just the job for what we needed.

Site's response

Thank you for the review and glad that our campsite met your needs. Hope to see you again soon.

Okay, nothing special

Okay site, smallish pitches, absolutely no privacy or division between pitches. Just rows and rows of caravans. The kids play park had minimal activities and was really just a meeting place. We could find no division between the kids playing field and the dogs one.

Site's response

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. We are sorry that you thought it was just an ok campsite. The kids play park does contain swings and slide and is mostly for the younger kids. Currently, the playing field/dog field has not been divided but is checked often for any litter and dog mess. This may change if we feel is needed.

Clean, quite and friendly.

Fantastic clean site. Lovely campsite, nice and quiet. Toilets and showers and clean and private, never too busy. The site has a park for kids, a field for dogs and fresh milk, coffee and snack machines. Only a 2 minute walk from the local pub. Lovely receptionist who was very helpful.

Ola' - many thanks for the review and we look forward to seeing you again.

Great site for base to explore

Good location, 5 minute walk to nice pub. Very clean facilities. Site not the most picturesque to wake up in but ticks most other boxes.

Site's response

Thank you for the review and so glad that you thought it was a great site. See you again.

Quiet and well maintained

Good clean site that, although busy, was also quiet in terms of noise. Good recycling facilities and the car entrance worked well.

Campervan stay

It was easy to get to and once in, it was quiet and well spaced out. Facilities were very clean, which was great. Good value for money. Will be coming back again soon

Perfect getaway

Very quiet. All pitches taken, but many were empty units. Will come again.

Site's response

Many thanks for the review and so glad that you will visit us again for another perfect getaway.

Excellent

Booked afternoon on the day we arrived. Easy to sort with all information clearly sent on email as we arrived late. Secure in and out entrance. Clean facilities and pretty quiet - if you don't count the birds, but they didn't bother us. Very friendly welcome the next day as we extended our stay. Good coffee shop opposite, didn't get to use the local pub. Great site for what we needed. Would recommend.

Site's response

Thank you for the kind review and glad that you had a great stay. We look forward to seeing you again soon.

Very clean

Very clean, good facilities for us, good pitches which are well kept, friendly staff, great security on entry and a good base for exploring the Jurassic Coast. The small play area wouldn't suit people with families looking for lots to do on site.

Site's response

Thank you for your kind review and glad that you liked the facilities and area. The small play area on site is mainly for smaller children and the large playing field next to the campsite is good for all types of ball games and exploring.

Good

Nice and clean, although the nesting crows were a pain!

Site's response

Many thanks for the review and apologies about the Rooks. They seem to be nesting right now and making a little bit more noise than usual. We hope that you did have a good stay at the campsite anyway and hope to see you again.

Perfect for exploring Dorset

Ace place. Super easy check in. Toilets and showers were spotless! Will definitely return.

Many thanks for the review and we are so glad that you will visit us again.

Safe, clean and modern

First time at this site and our first impression was how clean and modern it was. The site had everything you needed; clean, warm toilet, shower block, peaceful with a great surrounding... Thank you!

Site's response

Many thanks for the kind review and glad that you had a good, peaceful time. We look forward to seeing you again the next time you visit Portesham.

Amazingly well equipped

You couldn't ask for cleaner, or more modern services at a campsite. Everything has been well considered and catered for. The washing facilities, toilets and showers are spotless. There was always hot water, and we loved the fresh milk/coffee vending machines. The only thing that stopped us from getting a good night's sleep was the noisy rooks! But cannot fault the site itself. Ask for a pitch at the front or west of the site, if the rooks might disturb you. First class.

Site's response

Many thanks for your review and glad that you will return to stay with us again, in spite of the rooks sometimes getting a bit noisy. Unfortunately, we do not have any control over the rooks!

Cracking price

Very clean shower rooms, good location, regular bus service to Weymouth to the East or West Bay or a nice walk along the old railway track in to Abbotsbury.

Site's response

Thank you for the kind review and hope to see you again.

Decent

Good clean facilities, nice area to explore, onsite milk machine is good idea, and local (dog friendly) pub, the Kings Arms, is highly recommended for a meal. Our only minor criticisms would be that site seems a bit soulless and there isn't enough toilets for the capacity of the site. Those are really minor points though and didn't stop us from enjoying our stay.

Nice little campsite

Lovely campsite, only stayed for 1 night. Friendly and helpful staff. Very clean facilities. Quirky milk vending machine. Local pub within walking distance. Overall, a lovely stay.

Site's response

Thank you for your kind review and so glad that you had a lovely stay. We hope to see you again the next time you visit Portesham.

Not even Storm Eunice could dampen our fun!

Even with Storm Eunice raging, we managed to have a peaceful and enjoyable break. The facilities were excellent and the site is close to a lovely pub and farm shop. All of the staff were very helpful and friendly.

Site's response

Thank you for the kind review and we look forward to seeing you again when the weather is hopefully better.

Fantastic

A fantastic site in a beautiful little village with a nice little pub we used after going on some lovely walks. Great location for walks with Weymouth only 7 miles away. The staff were all very nice and very polite, and the site was very clean and tidy even at this time of year. Will definitely return to this site.
