Family friendly camping and glamping, 15 minutes from the Jurassic Coast. Onsite sauna and cold plunge!

About Forest Edge

Tucked into the countryside near Sidbury, Forest Edge delivers a quietly impressive mix of back-to-nature charm and thoughtful touches. Pitches are generously spaced and genuinely private, set among natural greenery that keeps things peaceful even when the site's busy. The facilities punch above their weight – hot showers are reliably maintained and spotless, while the wood-fired sauna with its cold plunge baths has become something of a guest favourite, perfect after a day exploring the Jurassic Coast fifteen minutes south.

Staff are friendly and helpful without being overbearing. Glamping tents and pods provide comfort for those wanting a softer landing, while traditional campers can light fires and bring dogs along. It's the kind of place that quietly gets the details right without making a fuss about it.

We had such an amazing stay here. The whole campsite feels more like a luxury wellness retreat than a traditional campsite. Everything is so modern, clean and beautifully designed, with such a calm and relaxing atmosphere throughout. You can tell a lot of thought and care has gone into every detail, from the facilities to the overall experience. It’s the perfect place to switch off, unwind and recharge. The staff were lovely and welcoming, and the site itself is incredibly well maintained. We genuinely didn’t want to leave and will definitely be returning. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful, modern getaway.

We had the most amazing girls’ weekend away here to rest, relax and reset. We stayed in one of the beautiful bell tents, which was incredibly comfortable with proper beds, duvets and pillows all provided. The thoughtful touches really made our stay special, including a kettle, gas stove, biscuits and hot chocolates. We also booked the outdoor sauna and plunge pools, which were absolutely incredible. It was the perfect way to unwind after dinner before heading to bed. The shower and toilet facilities were only a short walk away and were spotlessly clean throughout our stay. Everything was so well looked after and created a wonderfully relaxing atmosphere. We had an incredible weekend and left feeling completely refreshed. We will definitely be back and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful glamping getaway.

We had such a fantastic stay at this campsite and honestly didn’t want to leave. The site was spotless, well maintained, and had a really peaceful atmosphere throughout our stay. The owners were incredibly friendly and welcoming, always happy to help and full of useful local recommendations. The facilities were excellent — clean showers, well-kept toilets, and everything you’d need for a comfortable camping trip. The pitches were spacious and felt private without being isolated. We especially loved the beautiful surroundings and how quiet it was at night, making it perfect for relaxing and switching off. It’s clear that a lot of care goes into running this campsite, and it really made a difference to our experience. Whether you’re camping with family, friends, or just looking for a peaceful getaway, I’d highly recommend this place. We’ll definitely be returning in the future!

We stayed at Forest Edge Camping and Glamping in one of the bell tents with our 18 month old and had a great time. The tent was very clean, really well equipped and the beds were surprisingly comfy. The facilities on site were excellent too. The toilets and showers were always kept really clean and everything felt well looked after. The staff were also really friendly and helpful throughout our stay. There’s also a really good sauna on site with cold plunges, which was a brilliant addition and very well built. They also hire out wood fired hot tubs and fire pits, which added to the whole experience. Loads of nice forest walks nearby and a pub within walking distance that did good food and had a children’s play area, which was ideal with a toddler. Would definitely recommend for families wanting a relaxed camping/glamping trip with a bit more comfort.
