Longthorns Farm Reviews

Fabulous

Beautiful location, particularly loved the woodland walk. The staff were very helpful and the facilities were very clean. Definitely would come again.

Great location

Great location close to lots of places of interest. The campsite hosts and staff were welcoming and helpful. I would definitely recommend a stay here.

Friendly campsite, well maintained

Great, quiet campsite, with modern clean showers, toilets and washing area. Site owners are always happy to help. Short drive to local villages with shops and pubs.

Amazing campsite!!

What a weekend! kids (11,9,2) loved it! Myself too... Super location close to the sea and a lot of activities. Large field with all needed. Owners are super nice! If you love animals then it's the place book. Very friendly alpacas all. Loved to meet and great! Will definitely come back!

Great service

Easy access to facilities. I would definitely come back in future.

Whitsun holiday stay

Great location, spacious pitches and pleasant staff. Lots of bins and recycling. The woodland walk is very nice - saw deer running around. Great for dog walking and a nice walk to Monkey World. Showers are roomy and water nice and hot. Loved the alpacas too. Toilet facilities a bit stretched over bank holiday weekend - I don't think cleaning regime could keep up with usage as they were quite dirty on the Monday morning. There were also no laundry facilities.

Fabulous

Fantastic time on a fab site. Things that were really great - onsite bar where you could borrow glasses, great shop with fresh croissants, alpacas, very clean facilities. The only minor thing was the hand soap in the loos was a little bit rubbish. I took a bottle in with me which was a bit of a pain. Only a tiny, tiny whinge and we will defo come again, but just a mention to let you know. But totally awesome otherwise x

Fantastic

Fantastic park, had a fantastic time.

A little gem

Picked at random due location close to The Tank Museum - a superb site! Booking was seamless and the staff were helpful and accommodating. Facilities excellent and cleanliness was of a very high standard. We booked a grass pitch with EHU for a largish Motorhome with another pitch for two small tents - 5 people in total. I was initially concerned about the grass pitch given recent rainfall but site was very well drained and my 3.8 tonne vehicle had no access or egress problems. A thoroughly enjoyable experience and that's without mentioning the Alpacas which were lovely.

Perfect stay

Was a perfect stay, the campsite was great, warm showers, great location and the fire pit came with lots of wood.

A great first family camping experience

A spacious campsite run by a very welcoming and friendly couple. A small onsite shop, evening food available and a bar area. What's not to like! Great for my young family (6yr old and 8yr old). Soft ground as well for some easy pegging!

Beautiful site

We had a lovely few days, the site is lovely as are its owners! It's in a great location to explore the Jurassic Coast.

Everything you could wish for and a whole heap more!

Our family chose to stay at Longthorns and we really couldn't have wished for a better stay. The whole site was set out really well, with different areas for different campers. All of the areas are very spacious, with lots of room for your pitch plus a large area in the middle for people to play in. The owners were absolutely amazing and really made our stay. There really wasn't enough that they could do to make our stay a really special one. We were allocated the Alpaca Field, which was very close to the facilities, Alpacas and Rocky the Shetland pony! At Longthorns, there is an on-site shop, with items for those camping emergencies, local food (the venison burgers are sublime and local ice-creams delicious) and general food items, all at a very reasonable price. The toilets and showers were clean and there is also a great little 'washing up area' for campers to use. During peak periods; Longthorns have freshly cooked take-out food that you can book on the day, plus an on-site Parlour. You can also book Alpaca meet and greets and Alpaca walks! There is also a really nice and peaceful Woodland Walk and a large Dog field for your 4-legged friends to run around in. Monkey World is a safe and family-friendly 5 minute walk away, well worth a visit while you are based at Longthorns Farm. We also took a 15-20 minute drive to the coast to see the amazing Durdle Door. So much on the doorstep, and we could have stayed another week if we had more time off work.

Excellent location

Friendly and accommodating service in beautiful surroundings. A lovely, very well looked after spot and staff had a friendly helpful attitude. Excellent.

Stopover

Arrived about 5.30pm, there was no one to greet you or show you to where to park. Tried to phone the number, said office is now closed. Spoke to another camper and she was told to park on shingle as the field was a bit waterlogged so we also parked here. Toilet, shower and washing up facilities were spotless, however there seemed to be no running water. Would be a lovely place to use in the Summer.

Great site, great weekend

The location has to be good as it's in Dorset. The site was pristine, very well looked after and absolutely spotless. Toilets and showers were both very good and a there's a great little shop/reception. We got a warm welcome from the girl in the reception who was very helpful with the layout and my pitch number. Can't knock the place whatsoever, also great waking up to the sound of the howler monkeys next door, would definitely recommend and would definitely stay there again.

Great stay despite the weather!

Had a great time here despite the awful weather! Friendly staff, great location and we loved the alpacas!

Lovely

Great stay

Lovely friendly campsite

We had a fabulous stay. Very friendly, clean, safe and fantastic location. Short drive to local beaches and plenty of places to visit nearby. The on site pub and click and collect were a bonus. Would 100% go back.

Wonderful place and lovely staff

Location is fab, 20 mins from Durdle Door and Lulworth Cove. Monkey World is about 30 seconds, plus lots of other great attractions. Staff work so hard and will do anything to help anyone. There's electric points to charge your phone or blow up electric air beds like we did. You can freeze your freezer blocks in the shop. Pitches are more than big enough for any tent, not all cramped in. Showers are big and clean. Toilets are clean. Washing up area is kept clean. Only negative for me- the pitches that run along the main pathway are far too noisy all night long and we had constant torch light shining in from people going to the loos. My 3yo woke 7 times in 1 night, not anyone's fault exactly but on my return I will ask to be away from the pathway. Thanks for a lovely stay.

Amazing campsite

The campsite is located in a beautiful and quiet place. The showers and toilets were very clean and in excellent condition. The little shop and bar were brilliant too.

Site's response

Thank you Anita for amazing review, simple clean and friendly is what we aim to provide with a few extra's on site 😁

Wonderful campsite

A wonderful campsite. The guys who run it are awesome, and the takeaway food is fantastic. Thank you.

Beautiful setting

This campsite is in a most idyllic setting. We had a fantastic couple of days. Facilities are very clean and regularly checked. The staff are helpful and friendly. The children absolutely loved the walk with the alpacas. There is very minimal coverage for mobiles but we quite liked this, children just playing outside, no devices.

Excellent

Wonderful place to camp with hard working staff and great facilities.

Great stay at Longthorns

Spacious, well maintained and beautiful site. Very friendly management, and in close proximity to the Jurassic Coast. The only improvement for us would be to have an area for dogs to have a run.
