40 reviews from guests who stayed at Chesil Beach Holiday Park
Brilliant nice and clean beds made.Box of Essentials to make you feel at home.Entertainment not bad but not our thing anyway
This place was absolutely brilliant - from the location and park to the entertainment and spotless surroundings. The accommodation itself was immaculate, spacious, and had plenty of room to relax. The welcome package was a lovely surprise. Parking was conveniently located right beside it, and the view from my balcony was simply stunning.If I had to nitpick, the only slight gripe would be the wait for service and food at the restaurant in the evening. That said, I didnt mind too much, it was all freshly cooked to order, and worth the wait.All in all, an amazing week at Chesil Beach with Waterside. Highly recommend!
Had everything we could possibly need
Superb weekend at Chesil Beach. Kids loved the soft play, football pitch and pool! Staff were all incredible. We will be back!
Lovely views and buses on your door step
A great static caravan with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Immaculately clean. Great parking are at the side and an outdoor sitting area. We had a great holiday with our grandchildren.
Lovely camp everything spotless clean situated in a lovely spot,easy bus access to Weymouth town and seaside,which has a stunning beach with loads to do,write on the edge of chesil bay what more can I say stunning,and the weather was beautiful which just topped it off ,one of the best if not the best camp I've been too
Lovely caravan Bedrooms were very tiny though! Clean and well presented
Great caravan, best we have ever rented. Had all we needed. Double bed and bit too hard mattress but otherwise lovely stay.
Caravan was amazing , very spacious and clean
Very clean but looked very small due to being very cluttered very poor layout, Caravans very close to each other hard to manoeuvre car into parking spot.Grounds very well kept
Excellent accommodation. Cleaned to a fantastic standard. All the utensils, crockery etc you could need. Comfortable living area. The one thing that could be improved is having black out curtains and a blind for the door.
Excellent caravan location & patio area
Lovely caravan. Clean, had everything we needed. Nice quiet spot with excellent views and an outside area with table and chairs
Absolutely loved our stay! The owners really went above and beyond. So chill, were already telling friends to come too.
We had a really lovely time! Sharon and Robert made us feel so welcome, which was much appreciated. The place was spotlessly clean, comfy and perfect for our dog Archie - he loved it! The location was just right, with loads of nice walks nearby and exploring Thaxted and the surrounding villages was a real treat. We definitely felt refreshed after a week of relaxing and enjoying the peaceful surroundings. Would happily return!
Great weekend stay.
We had an amazing stay at the cottage! The location is perfect - so peaceful and calming. The surrounding farm is lovely and we enjoyed spotting the horses. The owners are super friendly and really attentive. Definitely a great spot if you're after a quiet, relaxing getaway. Highly recommend!
Such a lovely spot, super peaceful and the Jacuzzi was fantastic! Definitely returning.
We loved staying at this charming cottage nestled in such a peaceful spot. Its perfect for unwinding and the hot tub was just fantastic! The place was spotless and well-equipped. Plenty of lovely walks nearby, definitely a trip to remember. Highly recommend!
We just got back from a really nice four-night stay at this cottage. The owners are super friendly but not overbearing, which was perfect. The big fenced garden was great for our dog to run around safely. The place had everything we needed, including a fully equipped kitchen. We enjoyed a BBQ one evening and the hot tub was fantastic! Definitely planning to come back and have already told friends about it. Thanks for a lovely break!
We really enjoyed our visit! The grounds were lovely and walking the dogs through the fields was perfect.
Honestly, I dont get why there's an extra charge for our two tiny dogs. Theyre cleaner than some kids I know! We always bring our cordless vacuum along and I honestly challenge anyone to find even a trace of dog hair. Its pretty impressive, really.
The caravan needed cleaning. There was stain on the sofas and carpet needed wash and cleaning. But the bedding and toilets and kitchen was clean.
We had an amazing stay! The house was super well equipped and cosy, perfect for a rainy December day. The bath was just fantastic and the shower was great too. Being near the flight path didnt bother us at all, honestly! Perfect spot for dogs scared of fireworks since its so remote. Beautifully converted and really comfortable. Thanks so much for a lovely break!
Perfect caravan.
It was lovely to stay in a very clean caravan that has no smell of animals! Bed is a bit uncomfortable but other than that is brilliant
Really enjoyed our stay here, the place was spotless, super comfy and the hot tub was a highlight!
The house was gorgeous, really spotless and super comfy. We loved the hot tub-absolute highlight! Definitely coming back.
We really wish wed booked more nights, the evening shows were surprisingly good, even in this off-season! x
Excellent value for money when compared to similar type parks. First on site restaurant at this type of park that we all had no qualms about going back to.
Lovely clean site, friendly staff. Great location just outside Weymouth too
Great holiday caravan had everything we needed and great value plenty to do on site and only a short drive to Weymouth beach
Lovely site in close proximity to local attractions. Entertainment great, staff so friendly and nothing too much trouble. Apartment was spotless with beautiful views. Would definitely recommend
Had a fantastic time , everything to hand,excellent facilities, especially as my husband used a mobility scooter and access was available to all. Would highly recommend this park. Thank you for a lovely stay
Beautiful site in a good location, close to Weymouth where there is plenty to do and a large sandy beach. Children's entertainment was fun and the facilities were kept clean and tidy, the staff friendly. The soft play wasn't very big but it suited my 3 year old granddaughter and the pool didn't get too busy. Although Chesil beach is pebbles it was still fun to climb over and the Chesil Centre was interesting. The caravan was immaculate and it was extremely pleasant to be able to sit on the decking overlooking the Chesil fleet and Portland. There were plenty of places to visit and also a small sandy cove nearby if we didn't want to go into Weymouth.
Great place! Lovely setting; peaceful and clean.
Excellent. Very clean and very friendly.
Excellent park kept clean and tidy. Staff very helpful especially in the pool. The only down side was the intermittent Wi-Fi
Lovely setting, views of the sea from many points in the site, caravan clean and well appointed.
Friendly and helpful staff.
