Top Places and Services in Sherborne, Dorset

This is in a lovely location and the lake is beautiful for kids paddle boarding. The pitches are all level and flat with short grass. We enjoyed our time camping and would certainly come back and recommend to others. We felt the shower and toilet facilities could be improved and there weren't really enough for the numbers camping on the site. Separate sinks to the toilets would also have been beneficial so you didn't have to queue for loos to brush teeth etc. The site would also benefit from a few more sinks for washing up. The showers were warm in the morning but not in the afternoon. The cafe is lovely, we would have welcomed it being open later in the day during the week and it stocking a few grocery basics like bread, milk, water etc. I'm sure it was just a one off but we had to wait an hour for 4 toasted sandwiches and wasps were a problem across the site although we were informed by staff this is only for a short window of time each August. Its also worth noting it's £20 extra per night for a fire pit and wood which we felt was a little steep when comparing with other campsites we have visited in the area.
Its a great little site but has real potential to be an absolute gem with a few improvements

An amazing, super cool place. I popped in on my bike ride from Bridport to Dorchester. The lake is great - deep enough and just a great place for a swim (£5) followed by a cuppa and a delicious brownie. The lake is spring fed so pretty cold, but very refreshing :-). I’m going to have to book a stay next summer. An hours walk over the hills to remote beaches (or 30-45 mins run if you can!), 15 minutes westbound cycle to a farm shop and brilliant cafe, or 5 minutes walk to the village pub. Take your pick!

Just back from our fourth stay at Litton lakes and really is our favourite spot.
Site is clean, staff brilliant and in the most beautiful area of Dorset. Kids spent hours on the lake while we enjoyed fabulous coffee in the cafe. Perfect location. Thank you for another cracking weekend.

This place is 10/10. I found the best thing about this place was they offer a fire place and wood to buy, and the guy comes and checks you are topped up for the night. Me and my group was not expecting to be having beers and wine by a fire while camping. Also walking distance to the beach. I defiantly need to come back to this place In 2025 . Happy new year
