Liked: Just returned back from a lovely weekend in our camper van the first of the season. The toilet facilities are immaculate, we used the main block but on our previous stay was closer to the cabin toilets which were also clean. On arrival we drove straight to our pitch through the automatic barrier no need to be shown where to park. We personally prefer this to having to be shown to your pitch but people are about and the lady on reception did check we were okay and was very friendly. The on sight milk and food vending machines are a great touch, there is also a coffee machine and fresh orange juice. The dog exercise are is large and wasn’t muddy even though we visited in march after a lot of rain. Pitches are large and the site is very peaceful close to Weymouth and Portland. In the village is a pub which serves great food and is dog friendly. We didn’t book but they managed to squeeze us in they are also very friendly in there. There is farm shop which sell local produce and cafe. Just note that this isn’t dog friendly but the cafe does offer takeaway. This is our second visit and won’t be our last.

Liked: Portesham Dairy Farm site is one of the best we have stayed on. Great value for money. The toilets, showers, laundry and wash up have been built and maintained to the highest standards, even the demountable toilets and bathrooms are of high quality. There self service vending shop was a really neat idea, even though we didn't use it. We promise ourselves a milkshake from the vending machine, but we didn't manage to get it sorted, so we will just have to come back and get that rectified! The pitches are well set out with plenty of space between. It was our 3rd visit and it won't be our last. On a bus route, with a nearby farm shop and pub. What's not to like!!
Disliked: nothing!

Liked: We arrived late and were able to pitch up on one of the 'forecourt' pitches which suited us just fine. Close to the onsite facilities which were kept spotless by the cheerful and welcoming staff. The site was also just a short walk to the pub for dinner and the cafe for breakfast. The Old Mill was a really useful addition to the site too.
Disliked: It got a bit busy on the 'forecourt' at departure time with people emptying their grey waste which of course is unavoidable but other than that it was all good.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for the kind review and recommendation. We are so glad that the forecourt pitch was fine for your stay and look forward to seeing you all again.
