The Gaggle of Geese

Positiv: We love this campsite for its beautiful scenic location, amazing pub, beer garden and playground which is perfect for our 3 year old. The campsite is a great size and the layout works perfectly for children with pitches around the outside and then a large grass area in the middle. It is also very dog friendly. The miniature goats are adorable (if insatiable when it comes to food!) and the soft play double decker bus is a definite winner for the kids. Both times we have stayed we have been lucky enough to also have live music in the beer garden which gave it a real mini festival vibe. At night you will spot bats and hear owls hooting away in the valley. During the day pheasants squawk in the field behind the campsite and moos from the cows drift across the site.

Negativ: Nothing

Positiv: Amazing stay in Birdie Shepherd Hut. Comfy clean furnishings. Hot, high pressure shower. Plenty of heat pumped out from bathroom radiator and log burner warmed up the hut in no time at all. Well insulated hut which stayed warm all night - much needed in rainy October! Welcome pack of Prosecco, bread, butter, local honey & delicious homemade biscuits was very well received. Very thoughtful touches throughout. Food at Gaggle of Geese was delicious and generous portion sizes. Recommend visiting Cerne Abbas Giant, Abbey, Church & Wishing Well all worth visiting. Great food at New Inn pub in Cerne Abbas. Dorchester also worth a trip and the Thomas Hardy historical points. Monkey World was good to see Urangutans & Gorillas but the park was badly signposted and a few species including the Lemurs and Slow Loris were not available when we visited.

Positiv: Great quiet little site. Good food at the pub, very friendly.

Negativ: A very minor thing, but you could turn the PIR sensors on the toilet/shower lights to allow a bit more time before they turn off... It would save a lot of waving about in the dark when having a shower :)

Positiv: This was a lovely campsite - beautiful grounds and facilities. Options for glamping of various forms. Run by the pub owners who were really friendly. Lots of interesting things to do - pitch & putt, kids play area in an old bus, goats, ice cream parlour, pizza, pub food and of course, good beer & cider. Free WiFi in the pub. A really relaxing and peaceful spot - will definitely return.

Negativ: Needs toilet brushes but that’s a very minor issue

Positiv: Pitch where you like. We stayed out of high season so the site was exceptionally quiet, the one shower available and toilets were clean. Good base for exploring surrounding area, fab walks direct from the site.

Negativ: An elsan point would have been a bonus. Shame the pub wasn't open on the 2 out of 3 days we stayed.

Positiv: Excellent facilities, toilets and showers clean and plenty of them. Pub was too handy! Food good, beers and ciders all very good. We had a really good hike to Minterne House.
