I had a lovely time at this holiday park, nestled in a beautiful location near Charmouth beach. The accommodations were clean and had an amazing view of the countryside, making for a pleasant stay. However, I found the price a bit steep, especially given the minor issues we encountered with the facilities, particularly the lack of air conditioning in the rooms, which made for an uncomfortable night during the heatwave. Overall, it was a nice getaway, and I'd consider returning, but it could use some improvements.

We had a mixed experience at this park hotel. On one hand, the facilities and activities for kids were fantastic, making it a fun place for families. The apartments were a bit cramped and cleanliness could be improved. Dining was quite basic and pricey relative to the quality. The location was decent, but it could have been quieter for a better sleep experience.

This holiday park offers a beautiful and peaceful escape with great family activities and friendly service. The caravan we stayed in had stunning views, although it was quite basic and could use a few more amenities. The proximity to the beach and the cleanliness of the site were definite highlights.
