Top Places and Services in Horton, Dorset

This is a beautiful little site, no ehu but 1 immaculate shower and toilet.
Ready access to fantastic cycle paths and so many walking options.
Close to the river and Weir which was beautiful to swim in.
Nick, the owner is knowledgeable of the local area and super helpful.

This really is a gem, nicely located, very clean WC/shower & washing up/dining area too, albeit only the one-but it worked fine even with a weekend influx for the Sturminster Newton cheese festival ( more of a locally produced food fayre-highly recommended if you’re a foodie ).

I’d like to (gently) remind campers that etiquette dictates when all the other campers have gone lights out, it’s not polite to sit up in a group talking loudly preventing them from sleeping... Sounds censorious? Depends on how stressful your life is.

However, we were lucky enough to hear ( & see barn owls ) plus little And tawny owls! Nice walks nearby, highly recommended. Four stars instead of five? The LED lighting with PIR trigger had us moving about repeatedly to retrigger the lights, which was a tad irksome. Headlamp torch 🙄 but not so good whilst showering...

Excellent little hideaway. So many walks from the campsite. Several good pubs within walking distance. There are two to choose from in Child Okeford also a great little shop/bakery and a farm shop with a cafe. The site is nice and level with a toilet and a shower. We will definitely be back, and would highly recommend it.

We wanted a quiet spot not far away from home for a nights getaway and this ticked the box. Lovely quiet situation with a nice view and horses in the field next to us. Plenty of footpaths. For cyclists there's the Trailway just up the road and the lanes are traffic free for the most part. We went for a circular walk that stopped at the Saxon Inn (great pub!) in Child Okeford. Nick and Hannah both lovely and very knowledgeable about local area. We'll be back!

Very quiet and relaxing site with great views, plenty of walks and bike tracks close by. Lots of wildlife. Will definitely plan to stay again.
