Liked: Site is stunning, really well kept. The staff were amazing, friendly and helpful. The trains were hardly noticeable even when sat outside. Everywhere touristy was easy to reach, and a great pub just a stones throw away. Definitely recommend!

Liked: This site was exceptionally well managed. The pitches were positioned liberally (we took an Campervan) and kept tidy. Walkways to the facilities were paved and well lit. The toilets and showers were spotlessly clean and importantly showers were hot, spacious, with plenty of room to place all your essentials out of the way so they don’t get wet. What I particularly liked about this site is that it sits alongside a railway with a station 5 minutes down the road, giving easy access to the seaside towns. You might think that this made the site noisy, but it was hardly noticeable from our pitch. All in all it was an absolute delight staying at Whitemead and I would absolutely come again. Thank you to all the staff who work so hard making it the perfect place to stay.

Liked: Very clean toilets and showers, nice small site, great pub nearby for food. Staff very friendly and helpful. Small shop with essential food items and equipment. Most of the area nice and flat for pitching.
Disliked: Playground very basic to keep small kids amused for long.

Primitive grass campsite
Liked: Very well organised site, the staff were friendly and very helpful. Great location for us to go out without taking the camper - the train station and a bus stop were only a few minutes walk. We took the train to Poole and Weymouth
Disliked: The campsite was a bit rules based - no washing lines apart from rotary on a stand, toilets and showers closed for cleaning between 12-2. But that did mean everything was clean and tidy!

Liked: Wardens were fantastic! Against the heavy rain and wet soggy pitches, they helped us and everybody get where they needed, (and off..) Spotlessly clean, heated shower block and toilets. Great Little shop (though do not use). Waste bins emptied regularly. Security barriers. Wi-Fi.
Disliked: Nothing to dislike here.
