Stayed here in the feather down safari tent with our 2 boys , had a marvellous time , pizzas made in the pizza oven and taking the time out of their busy farming schedule to give all the campers a farm tour really went the extra mile, looking to book again next year. Highly recommend getting out to lulworth cove for a beach day. 10/10 Highly recommend this place to stay.

Stayed here over a long weekend recently. The idea behind this location is to disconnect from life, slow down and enjoy the countryside and all it has to offer, it certainly allows for this in spades. The accommodation is great, the huts are spacious with plenty of room, they offer a kitchenette and hot showers with a log burner for heat and cooking as well as a BBQ. The huts are located on a working farm, the owners are lovely and really want to help guests have a great stay. The fresh bread each morning was the highlight of my morning 😉 There is plenty to do locally from walks, country pubs and if you don't mind a bit of a drive some fossil hunting on the coast.

Gorgeous scenery, a Feather Down classic set up. Lovely walks and lovely pubs. Great to slow down and relax and the kids had great fun in the fields. A pretty nature walk nearby, lots of nature to spot and quintessential Dorset villages to explore.
