Large Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (Main Field) Aug 2024 Location was exactly what we were looking for. Walking distance to the private beach was perfect especially for 2yo and 6yo. No big expeditions needed and everyone really enjoyed the swimming on site.
First camp on a site like this that had more facilities and honestly it was just too busy for us. The amount of people and specifically the language and inconsiderate behaviour of some guests bought it down.
The park itself was fabulous, we just found this wasn't what we wanted from our camping experience
Friendly staff, great location and facilities.
Large Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (Main Field) Aug 2024 Great facilities and friendly staff. Security staff were really good and even checked on everyone when it was so windy, which was lovely.
Only downside is as a family that don't have a dog, dogs were everywhere in the pool area, even though there was a designated area for them. People ignored that and they were still around the pool, in the entertainment area where people were eating and it was very busy. Dogs were all over the floor as people were stepping over them.
As a family with a small child, it's worrying letting them play when there were so many dogs and some off leads. Can there not be a designated area for tents/caravans with dogs so children can play if they choose to not be around dogs?
Really enjoyed my stay
Large Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (Main Field) Aug 2024 Really enjoyed my stay here. Facilities were great and near the private beach. Also had own pools. Shop onsite and bar that was not too expensive. Would definitely stay again.
Excellent
VW-Type Campervan - Electric Grass Pitches (Top Field) Aug 2024 Great park, clean, large outside heated pool, and a short walk to a great beach.
Amazing!
Medium Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (Main Field) Aug 2024 Absolutely perfect if you are going on holiday for a break away, and very good for children.
The outdoor pools, the parks and the access to the beach are all amazing and well maintained.
Fully recommend staying here.
Great place!
Large Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (Main Field) Aug 2024 Fab place to stay, everything you need on site and reasonably priced. Very friendly and helpful staff. Good entertainment, the only downside was the shower facilities were a little outdated and not very clean.
But overall, great stay and will be back!
Lovely holiday
Large Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (Main Field) Jul 2024 We just got home from our 4 night stay at Freshwater. It was our first camping trip as a family and it did not disappoint! Everyone was so lovely and friendly. The pitch was great and well located, close (but not too close) to the toilets/showers. When we first arrived, our closest block was closed for maintenance and then reopened, only to close again a couple of days later (but only for a couple of hours while they fixed the boiler). Not a huge inconvenience and just 'one of those things'. The toilets and showers were as expected and big enough to be in the same cubicle with my young child who needed help.
The location was 10/10! We were so close to the private beach and had a lovely walk down there each day. My children were so excited to see the river meandering down to the sea and even more amazed when we were able to climb down and walk through it! We also managed to do the coast walk up to the top of the hill to look at the amazing view. There was a little wooden bridge over the river, perfect for playing 'pooh sticks' which of course we did! There was even a company located on the beach to hire paddle boards and kayaks, which we did for the first time ever which was great fun.
Additional entertainment and activities were also great! The kids loved the indoors and outdoor pools, the indoor was easy to book and we enjoyed the inflatable obstacle course. The little arcade was just the right size for our 6 and 4 year olds. A game of bowling followed by a yummy dessert in the upstairs restaurant was the perfect way to finish our last evening.
Thank you for a great stay I'm sure we will be back and hopefully for longer next time!
Perfect holiday
Large Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (Main Field) Jul 2024 Absolutely loved staying at Freshwater with the family! All staff extremely friendly, plenty to do, would definitely stay again and recommend to anybody looking for a great holiday 😀 x
Great for kids
Single Axle Caravan - Electric Grass Pitches (Main Field) Jul 2024 An ideal site for young children, with plenty going on to keep them occupied with evening entertainment for the adults. Great location near to beach.
Great holiday, would recommend
Large Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (Top Field) Jul 2024 Excellent service. Great holiday. Good for all ages.
Smarts family camping
Medium Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (Main Field) Jul 2024 Amazing from start to finish. Was myself and two boys.
The entertainment was the best, swimming entertainment amazing (floating obstacles course/disco party dancing).
So clean and I felt so safe. I did lose my son (5) and everyone came together staff and campers and he was found so quick.
Staff were so friendly and always happy to help.
Thank you and we will 100% return.
Excellent
Large Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (Main Field) Jul 2024 Excellent value , great for kids. Our grandson (4) loved it.
Family fun
Large Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (Top Field) Jul 2024 Everything you could possibly need on site, including a beach! We had a lovely time.
It does exactly what it offers and does so very well!
Trailer Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (Main Field) Jul 2024 Wasn't sure what to expect, it's a big site, lots of facilities and we're in the school holidays, but that's exactly why we chose this site.
The kids loved it and we had a great time. Low capacity on arrival, we were late on arrival and met by a security team, who were put to use on our first night. The capacity soon filled but the site is very well cared for and built to take the capacity.
Great walks in the area, super shop on-site, lots to do in local area and would recommend.
Great stay
VW-Type Campervan - Electric Grass Pitches (Top Field) Jul 2024 A well-presented campsite with easy access to a private single beach and within walking distance to West Bay, and the village of Burton Bradstock. Facilities include two excellent and very clean toilet and shower blocks, complete with separate laundry and washing-up rooms. There is also a well stocked shop onsite that sells absolutely everything you could ever possibly need.
Large pitches which can easily accommodate a campervan with a large awning or event tent. If you want peace and quiet, and do not fancy the noise of children, then I recommend booking a pitch on the top field.
Great time at Freshwater Beach Holiday
Medium Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (Main Field) Jul 2024 Had a great time away in the fantastic place! Beautiful views, friendly staff, very good services and facilities and very convenient location to explore places around the area.
Definitely will recommend this holiday park to my family members and friends. Really hope that will have a chance to return again.
Brilliant
Large Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (Main Field) Jul 2024 Very good campsite. Clean and situated close to the beach.
Fab!
Single Axle Caravan - Electric Grass Pitches (Top Field) Jul 2024 Great campsite! We arrived the week before the schools get out - so it was nice and quiet. Beach is fantastic! Outdoor pool also fab - nice and clean and water a lovely temperature.
We didn't use the bowling alley but definitely next time! Shower blocks really good - plenty of toilets and showers for everyone. The food in the balcony bar was amazing - I had a nice healthy chicken flatbread and it had loads of lovely salad.
Well done guys - we'll definitely come again. Staff all very friendly and helpful.
Fabulous holiday spot!
Single Axle Caravan - Electric Grass Pitches (Main Field) Jul 2024 We stayed here before the Summer Holidays started. It was quite empty during the weeks but fairly full over the weekends. I enjoyed the quieter weeks. I never had to wait for a shower or loo. The facilities were always clean. (The only time I couldn't find a clean shower was during the busy weekend).
The terrace bar was great, good beer and lovely food. As it was quiet, we didn't have to wait long. The outdoor pool was wonderful on the hot days we had. Lovely, active lifeguards. The walk to the beach was short, the beach is shingle, which I prefer, and we spent many fun hours there with the kids.
The coastal path had amazing views and Bridport itself is a great town with everything you need. Lyme Regis just 20 mins away, which we did a few times. Overall, a great location, good facilities and clean. Personally, I preferred the quieter weeks but my daughter would have preferred more children to play with!
Fantastic site
Large Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (Main Field) Jul 2024 We tried Freshwater for a short camping trip to see if our small child would enjoy it, and we had a lovely time.
The food in the restaurant was fantastic, even when it was very busy. We enjoyed the bowling, the pool and slides are amazing for the kids. Great selection of drinks from the bars. The facilities were spotless. The only thing we didn't enjoy was the rain, lol.
We can't wait to go back!
Place which stays in memory for long
Large Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (Main Field) Jun 2024 Very nice place with lots of activities for kids. Very clean facilities. The best thing I love about this place is that the sea is very close, which made the best impression for me.
There are guardians walking all the time and checking if all good, and if someone not passing the rules, they are warning you nicely. I would say it is very safe place.
Great campsite
Large Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (Main Field) Jun 2024 Brilliant, clean and friendly campsite.
Great site
VW-Type Campervan - Electric Grass Pitches (Main Field) Jun 2024 Great site, very large, very clean with great facilities.
Big pool area outdoors but the private beach is amazing for us and our dog. Great site if you have young kids, so we wouldn't visit in school holidays as no doubt would be too busy for us. Would recommend though for private beach, if nothing else.
Fabulous place
VW-Type Campervan - Electric Grass Pitches (Main Field) Jun 2024 Fab place for families. Stayed one evening in our campervan. The price included all entertainment, pools and use of all the facilities.
Most of the park is dog friendly too, which we found very helpful.
Great site!
Large Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (Main Field) Jun 2024 A great campsite, clean and with lots of facilities. Will visit again!
