About Hobby Farm Holidays
Tucked into the Dorset countryside near Whitchurch Canonicorum, this peaceful adults-only site strikes a lovely balance between back-to-basics camping and modest creature comforts. Pitches are spacious and level, whether you opt for non-electric grass or hardstanding, and there's a quartet of ensuite shepherd's huts (all named after local wildlife) if you fancy a touch more shelter. Hot showers stay reliably clean, campfires are allowed, and the whole place hums with birdsong and visiting badgers rather than road noise.
It's the sort of spot where you actually unwind—helped along by friendly owners who keep things running smoothly without fuss. The Jurassic Coast lies within easy striking distance, making this a smart base for coastal walks before returning to your pitch and a crackle of flames. Dogs are welcome throughout, and with year-round opening, you can enjoy the quiet even in the shoulder seasons when the crowds thin out.

What visitors say
I’d like to keep this place a secret but I have to say how much we loved it at Hobby Farm. We had a perfect corner pitch, a huge space for all of our camping gear and the dog. The facilities were clean and not busy. A lovely quiet site in a great location with a friendly pub just down the road. Honestly we didn’t want to leave and will definitely be back.

We stayed 3 nights at the site and loved our stay here! We had a big list of places to see from Lyme Regis and Lulworth Cove to Weymouth and Charmouth and the campsite location was such a great base for exploring the Jurassic Coast. After busy days, it was in such a peaceful location off the beaten track, surrounded by only fields, with horses and sheep and you can really relax here and enjoy the peaceful nature around you. The toilets and showers were always clean and fully stocked with toilet roll. Plenty of bins for your rubbish and easy to find. Highly recommend for a camping trip in Dorset 👌🏼

This is a little gem of a camp site. No electric hook up means quiet. Come if you want peace, nature and to relax. Stay away if you want music, late nights and parties. Mostly flat pitches. Clean toilets and showers. Did I mention the quiet? The birds are amazing: Greater Spotted Woodpecker, Blackcaps, Song Thrushes, a nest of house martins in the loo block, all the music you need!

Absolutely beautiful campsite, and stunning surrounding area just outside Bridport Dorset. We stayed here for a couple of nights and are so pleased we found it. They have a small lake where we sat by in the evening and listened to a multitude of birds as they nested for bedtime. Peaceful, warming welcome and we will definitely come back in the summer. Thank you Hobby Farm x
