VW-Type Campervan - Electric Grass PitchesSep 2024

Wonderful site in a beautiful peaceful setting. A really short walk to Burton Bradstock, which is a stunning village and a little further to walk to Hive Beach. I would definitely visit again.

Sprinter-Type Campervan - Electric Grass PitchesSep 2024

We were very surprised by the site. At a little over £25 a night for a grass pitch with EHU, we found the pitch size much larger than many other sites with plenty of space between vans. It is very close to the river with walks all around the site. It is also only 0.8 miles walk along the river bank to Burton Bradstock and the local pubs. We were there after the schools returned, which made it very peaceful and only the weather was the real negative. The shower blocks are limited with only 3 showers in the men's and ladies (although there are also a couple of unisex bathrooms). I guess this could be a bit of a negative in the height of the season. There is no other facilities at the site such as playgrounds, cafe but this did not detract for our enjoyment. Will we return. Most certainly. Right price, great location, peaceful and check in online prior to arrival made it very easy.

Thank you from all of the team.

Hive Beach, owned by National Trust, is just a one mile walk from the park with a glorious cliffside backdrop looking out towards the spectacular Jurassic Coast as well as an award winning cafe and a bar set on the clifftops. A short drive will take you to West Bay, the fishing village used for ITV's popular 'Broadchurch' drama series, with plenty of waymarked cycling and walking trails along the coastline. You're also within easy reach of: *Vurlands Animal Farm (3.4 miles), family run farm with daily pig racing, animal feeding, kids play area and tearooms. *Little Bredy Waterfall and Walled Gardens (6.8 miles), set in the heart of the Bride Valley. *Abbotsbury Subtropical Gardens (7.2 miles), home to an abundance of flora and fauna where kids can also try finding the Cheshire Cat, white rabbit, and Alice herself within the Wonderland Sculpture Trail.


Once a tightly knit community of farmers, fishermen, net makers and flax spinners, the village of Burton Bradstock has retained much of its character and offers a glimpse into a bygone age. Catch the X53 bus from the village to get to Bridport and West Bay or along the Coast Road to Abbotsbury, Weymouth and beyond.

Also within walking distance is Hive Beach, one of the main gateways to the Jurassic Coast and the South West Coast Path. This National Trust estate and popular family destination has spectacular coastal views and is part of the well-known Chesil Beach, one of the most spectacular features of the Jurassic Coast.

Popular places to visit nearby include Little Bredy waterfall, Abbotsbury Swannery and Sub Tropical Gardens, St Catherines Chapel, Hardy's Monument, Vurlands Animal Farm, Mapperton House and Gardens, The West Bay Discovery Centre and attractions in Weymouth including Sandworld, the Sea Life Centre and Portland Bill Lighthouse.
