Farm Holidays Dorset

Dorset farm holidays are a truly unique way of holidaying in the West Country. The acres of land, cobbled farmyards and vast outbuildings make a rustic version of the highly polished hotel chains of the foreign destinations visitors frequent abroad. A farm stay ensures cosiness, fresh air and the ability to get close to nature, the countryside and in some cases, various farmyard animals.

Dorset is well known for having a slow food culture, where food mileage is kept to a minimum, local produce prevails and the farmers' markets are full of delicious and fresh products. Staying on a farm alongside the farmers gives you a chance to discover the freshest ingredients and to see what goes into producing food for the nation.

Make sure you view our full range of farm cottages in Dorset.

The cottages we have in Dorset are found across the county so you are never more than a short trip from the World Heritage Site of the Jurassic Coast, the popular resort towns of Bournemouth, Swanage and Weymouth and the foodie havens of Bridport, Dorchester and Chideock where you can take part in a nettle eating competition.

If you want to help feed the cows and bottle feed the lambs, make sure you choose a farm cottage that has animals!

For days out and about in Dorset you might like to visit the isle of Purbeck, the Jurassic Coast, any one of the wonderful aquariums or perhaps one of the ancient castles such as Corfe Castle or Sherborne Castle.
