Friendly, small campsite
Single Axle Caravan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches (Rosehip) Apr 2024 We enjoyed our stay. The facilities were very clean and well maintained. The hardstanding was quite soft, but given all the rain we have had, it was hardly surprising.
Access is ok providing you follow the route they suggest as other local roads are narrow and windy and unsuitable for a caravan.

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay and our lovely new toilet facilities.
There certainly has been a lot of rain lately and we're are really looking forward to the ground drying up and the sun coming out. We really hope to welcome you again in the future.
Wider pitches needed please Twin Axle Caravan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches (Rosehip) Apr 2024 Hardstanding pitch was not wide.
Enough for a twin axle caravan without having to walk on muddy grass to get in. We arrived in heavy rain and it was so muddy, we parked over so that we could walk into caravan and stay clean. If we had awning, it would be the same - walk in the mud to get in. I appreciate you can't do anything about the weather but helping us keep out of the mud would help!
Also, we had a big caravan and a transit van had problems parking the van because they didn't want to get stuck in the mud. Luckily we didn't have neighbours so could park on the hardcore "track".
When arriving we are advised to look for the pineapple, we expected a large pineapple sign but there isn't one on the road!
Lovely shop and facilities were excellent. Would like to visit again but only during a dry spell! The views are stunning and good dog walks. I was concerned about the very close proximity of the electric and water as the water sprays onto the electric when it's windy. I hope these help you improve the site.

Thank you for your feedback, we always value comments and suggestions from customers and give them all very careful consideration. Roll on summer when the ground is all lovely and dry.
We hope to welcome you again then.
Absolutely charming, picturesque, quiet and clean site
Small Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (Honeysuckle) Sep 2023 Honestly, we've just had a fabulous weekend here.
Despite arriving in the dark, and worrying we were too late, we were greeted warmly and given wood so we could have a fire and cook. Huge pitches, clean and so well thought ur amenities with a very homely feel and information about the area.
So nice to get away for the weekend without our kids, and anyone else's for that matter.
Can't wait to come back when they open again in the spring!!

Thank you so much for your review. We are really glad you felt welcomed here. We hope to see you again for a return trip.
Great site with super staff!
VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches (Rosehip) Sep 2023 A great site which we picked as we thought it would be smaller and therefore not full on with kids and lots of pitches.
The site is adult only and is superb. A small 3 level or 3 field site. Due to the very wet weather they had, they offered us a move from grass to a stone pitch which we took and we were pleased we did. The facilities are clean and although they are updating the showers over the closed period, I think they are good as is! The shop opens 10-1700 and is welcoming, as are the staff.
We will be staying there again and recommend the site to anyone in the area.

Wonderful stay
Medium Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (Honeysuckle) Sep 2023 Staff were extremely accommodating. The location and scenery was perfect. We managed to take a trip to a dog friendly beach nearby on recommendation by a member of the staff to make the most of the sunshine and on our return, we took a nice walk along the lanes to the local cider farm, which we highly recommend! Lovely stay. Hopefully we get to visit again.

Friendly dog site
VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches (Clover) Sep 2023 A very friendly site where dogs are very welcome. The facilities were very good, clean and having the shop/ cafe on site was definitely a bonus. The staff were attentive on arrival, greeted all newcomers with a smile 😀.
Walking distance to local pubs and the Cider Farm.

A wonderful and peaceful campsite
Medium Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (Honeysuckle) Sep 2023 I thoroughly enjoyed a few days motorcycle touring/camping at this site. I particularly enjoyed my evenings in front of the fire pit.
The facilities were great and user friendly. Showers always available clean and hot. Even a fridge and freezer available for those of us in tents to keep stuff cool (it was during the September heat wave when I stayed).
The location, so close to Bridport, Charmounth and Lyme Regis, for me, was great. I will look to be booking again next year. The shop was a little sparse, other than for essentials one might have forgotten. Hey, it's all about supporting a local economy and Dorset is a wonderful part of the country to visit. Nice roads for bikers even if the surface was a little rough at times.
Site seemed motorcycle friendly but one needs to keep the noise down to maintain the tranquillity of this lovely site ❤️

Firepits Motorhome - Large Electric Grass Pitches (Buttercup) Sep 2023 A pleasant site, close to cider farm and great pub in Waytown. Good country views.
Be aware of the 'free' firepits, as only wood bought there can be used. On still nights, the smoke hangs around and made the evening unpleasant when surrounded by 3 of these pits on other pitches.

Thank you for your review, we are glad you enjoyed your time with us and in our beautiful area. Isn't Dorset beautiful!
The fire pits are indeed free and available on each pitch. We used to have a hire fee per night but have removed this. We have to be very careful what people are burning to ensure everyone's safety and also to protect our environment, particularly as we use the ash to enrich the soil in our nature area.
We hope to welcome you back in the future.
Charming site - we'll be back
Sep 2023 This is a lovely site: small, very well run, good facilities, cheerful and helpful staff, and a short drive from the coast.
We stayed for three nights and this is our first trip as caravan owners. Such a good experience. We followed the site's advice and approached from the direction of Bridport. There's lots more to explore nearby the site for the next time we visit.
We will definitely be back.

Great Site
Jul 2023 Had a super stay at Pineapple. Great location to explore East Dorset. Large pitches (ours was fully serviced) and loads of hot water in clean shower block.
Small shop for basics including marshmallows for the campfire. Staff were always friendly and knowledgeable. Excellent organic cider farm within walking distance which we used on a regular basis 😀
Will definitely stay here again.

Lovely campsite
Jul 2023 First time staying here and we will definitely be back. Lovely peaceful campsite in beautiful location. Good sized pitches with water, hook up on each plus a fire pit provided on every pitch which was nice. Very attractive site.
Facilities were very clean. Proper showers! Toilets a bit basic but clean. Only 2 sinks and nowhere for washbags etc so cleaning teeth etc a bit tricky.
Staff were all so friendly, helpful and welcoming.
The road to the site also serves an industrial site, farm and pub and it's very narrow so be warned when it's busy!
Thanks for a lovely holiday.
