About Lyde Hill Holidays
Set on a working farm near Stour Provost, Lyde Hill Holidays offers five ensuite glamping pods with a genuinely rural feel. Families appreciate the onsite animals and the warm welcome, while the pods themselves come equipped with their own facilities—handy when you're travelling with children. WiFi keeps everyone connected, and the site stays open year-round for those seeking an off-season escape.
It's worth noting the location feels properly tucked away, so you'll need a car to reach local shops and attractions. That said, Shaftesbury is only ten minutes' drive, and the surrounding Dorset countryside makes a peaceful base. One small catch: pets aren't permitted, so you'll need to leave four-legged friends at home.

Having just returned from a fantastic two night break at this beautiful location I wanted to write a review to highly recommend this place! The holiday pods are incredible and not the average. With central heating and double glazed windows and doors with everything you could possibly need including a full size shower. It was perfect break even with the changing seasons. We explored the local area on foot. The views from the pods are lovely and we enjoyed sitting out the front in the evening and the sunshine before we left this morning. Will definitely be back!

We loved our Autumn break in this cosy wooden cabin. It was surprisingly warm and the bed was very comfy. They were well equipped with everything we needed. The en-suite shower was luxurious and the colour changing lights and built in Bluetooth speaker made a great addition! The surrounding area is open fields and we enjoyed wandering round these and seeing the deer. There is also lots to do a short drive away. The nearby Udder Farm Shop is very handy with a well stocked shop, restaurant, cafe, takeaway and children’s play area. I’d highly recommend Lyde Hill Holidays! We can’t wait to come back!
