  • Dog-friendly wildlife haven on a Dorset smallholding with sea views
  • A 10-minute drive from Charmouth and 15 minutes from Lyme Regis
  • Walks nearby and woods behind the site; firepits are provided
Just decided on a Jurassic Coast holiday? Whether it’s fossil hunting on the beach, wind-swept coastal hikes or exploring arty Bridport (20 minutes’ drive) you have in mind, Brig’s Farm should prove to be a splendid base. This 12-acre smallholding sitting among the gentle hills of west Dorset is a wildlife haven, with an informal, quiet atmosphere where guests are encouraged to soak up the distant sea views and the sounds of nature, well removed from loud music and rowdy parties. You can set up a firepit when the sun goes down, or gather by the wood-fired oven on pizza nights, and wait for your margherita to come out piping hot, ready to be devoured. (Book in advance, and please note that pizza nights are weather-dependent.) A coffee shack on site sells hot drinks and cakes. There are composting toilets and showers on site, so you should feel nice and fresh no matter how much walking you do in the day – and there are lots of gorgeous walks locally, plus woods behind the site that you can explore with your canine buddy, who is a very welcome guest here. Brig’s Farm is about 10 minutes by car from the coastal village of Charmouth, which is famed for its fossils. It’ll take you about an hour to get to the village on foot, and then you can reward yourself with a pint, some fish and chips and/or a paddle in the sea.

Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch

Liked Quiet! Showers were great, powerful and hot and clean. Views were fantastic. Great value for money. Big pitches. Each had its own fire pit.

Disliked Nothing really. Maybe it would be good to have info somewhere about the pizza evenings and coffee mornings - didn’t happen Saturday night / Sunday morning even though site was busy and weather glorious. Can understand the rest of the week as there were only a couple of us. Not a major issue but the thought of a good morning coffee was an extra pull to the site.

Hannah D.

Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch

Liked The site is beautiful with lots of open space for the children to roam around and play. They would have happily spent the whole weekend on the site and never made it to the beach! Short drive to Chatmouth for beach and fossil hunting. Very peaceful even when there are lots of other campers due to well spaced out pitches. Great to have an open fire in the evening. Hot showers and proper coffee were the icing on the cake! My third visit and I will be back

Local attractions

Lemurs, wallabies and meerkats are among the residents at Axe Valley Wildlife Park (10 minutes’ drive), where you can also book experiences with the animals – from supervised handling sessions to shadowing the keepers as they prepare food and clean enclosures. The Mary Anning Rocks Statue at Lyme Regis (15 minutes) honours this important 19th-century palaeontologist. You can follow in her footsteps here and go fossil hunting on the beach. Don’t worry if you fail to spot any ammonites: you can always pick one up from the local souvenir shops, or discover all about fossils and the Jurassic Coast at the Lyme Regis Museum. In addition to a long pebbly beach popular for swimming and watersports, the seaside town of Seaton (20 minutes) has a pretty marina and fishing harbour. The South West Coastal Path runs along the seafront, with a wide esplanade for waterfront strolls, or you can take a scenic ride on the vintage-style Seaton Tramway.
