I loved this camping site. The lady at the reception was very kind and helpful. The pitches are of good size and has supply of water and electricity. The units for toilets and sinks were very very clean as well as the showers. They were supersonic. Very convenient were the vending machines and the farm shop nearby. I would love to return.

This site is highly recommended. The toilets and showers are spotless and roomy as is the whole site. Loved the vending machines area (open 24 hrs) that sells a variety of breakfast needs (sausages, bacon, cereal, bread etc) , freshly squeezed orange juice, milk/milkshakes, hot drinks and snacks. Dog walk area is of a good size with a welcome stream for them to cool off in. A small park area seemed a hit with the younger children. Very friendly staff, always waving you in and out. The site is in a good location for Weymouth, Bridport, Abbotsbury and Dorchester. Hardy's Monument is a must to visit. The Swan Inn at Dorchester serves a fantastic carvery. If I could give this site 20 ⭐ I would. We will definitely be back!

We booked the site last minute on the day of arrival. The welcoming and friendly reception team knew of our arrival and had emailed us the pitch number beforehand. The facilities are excellent and very clean. The site is in the pretty village and close to a good farm shop and pub. The location is good for the lovely walk to the Hardy Monument with the pub on the way back. The site is very dog-friendly with a good large exercise area. It is our first time at the site and we could only stay one night this trip, but we will definitely be back.

This was our first trip out in our caravan and chose this site as it was close to home. Made very welcome on arrival and set up quickly. Found the on site vending shop very clean and provided everything need if required. Took our own milk bottle. Toilet and shower block very clean and well thought out no taps but sensors. Whole site is very clean and well laid out for all abilities. Will return for another stay in 24.

The site was easy enough to find, but quite a narrow road coming down by the pub! A lovely site with very friendly and helpful staff. The facilities are excellent and clean, the farm shop/cafe and pub are a couple of minutes walk away.

Lovely campsite. So clean and the toilets are immaculate! Good communication prior to arrival and lovely pitch for our van when we arrived. The added bonus of fresh milkshakes and orange juice in the mornings was amazing! We already can't wait to rebook.

A fantastic stay at Portesham Dairy Farm Campsite for Christmas. A very secure site with immaculate facilities, friendly reception staff and no problem on arrival being directed to our pitch. The toilets, shower block and washrooms are spotless with instant hot water for cleaning. Great location with a dog friendly pub (Kings Arms) just a couple of hundred metres away (very good food). The site also has a well stocked vending area for fresh milk etc. Would certainly recommend this site as a base to explore Dorset.

Stopped in Portesham for a night while driving to see family for Christmas. The site was so easy to access and find our plot, so it didn't matter we arrived late evening. Toilet facilities were exceptionally clean and modern. Lovely little village and a nice walk for the dogs straight out of the site. Extra nice touch with coffee and vending machines at the front of the site, so we could get drinks before hitting the road. Staff were really friendly. Finally, super easy to just drive out the next morning and be on our way. Overall lovely site with clean and modern toilet and shower facilities. Would recommend and will likely visit again ourselves.

My first camping trip in a new van and I had a great stay. The staff were great and on hand for any of my novice questions. The site was quiet and clean. There are great walks directly from the site, which are well suited to dog owners. The dog walking field on site is large and a great addition. The Kings Arms pub is close by. I recommend booking online, as they get very busy. Looking forward to returning soon.

Pleasantly surprised on arrival at the warm welcome at reception and interacting with the cleaning crew. This is the first time I have used a private club site as was a member of CAMC for over 20 years. You cannot fault the cleanliness of the site and the range of facilities on offer. Vending machines are situated opposite reception and I felt that if I had arrived at the site late at night with no provisions at all, I could have bought drinks, dinner and breakfast! Fresh milk on tap too! There are also provisions in the shop that are open during reception hours. Loos and showers were good clean and warm areas. A big fenced dog walking field is available. There's even a dog washing tap by the motorhome grey waste area! Will return as it was a convenient stop over site.

First time we have stayed here and loved it! Staff very friendly and there to help. Great pitch and lovely dog walking field. Abbots Bury was a beautiful walk down the old train track which we picked up near from the campsite. Nearby there was a pub which had amazing food. There was also great coffee and cake at the Duck farm shop. Can't wait to go back!
