Pear Tree Farm offers exactly what it says on the tin and much more. We found basic but working and well-planned out facilities, a level gravel-based pitch and a super friendly host who came to check we were settled in and had all we needed. We found complete quiet (except for birds and sheep bleating) and dark skies (except for an epic sunset). Plus there was the security and peace of mind of leaving our van to walk the countryside and at night, when the wind howled and the rain hammered down. The site has lovely views and is surrounded by fields with animals grazing. Just over the horizon, there are even more great views of the Dorset 'playmat' of fields and villages rolling down to the sea. If you like walking, this is a fabulous site. There are so many paths to explore and several pubs within walking distance. We went to Wyndham's Gap, which we cannot recommend enough for the beautiful walk there, the amazing food and little village of Chedington, the donkey sanctuary and the River Axe. The site owner is extending the site to offer the same number of pitches but to allow campers more opportunities to choose where they set up. We would love to return again. Thanks to Gary for a great stay!
Really enjoyed our stay here

Had a lovely couple of nights here. So peaceful and away from it all. Will definitely come back as it was exactly what we wanted! There are no toilets or showers but that wasn't an issue for us. EHU and fresh water were available and the site had key code entry making it feel very secure. Lovely small site with room for 5/6 campers.
