  • Peaceful adults-only and dog-friendly site with complimentary firepits
  • A 15-minute walk to a cider farm; 15 minutes' drive to beaches
  • Little on-site shop with fresh coffee and bacon sandwiches
Lace up your hiking boots and pack up your beach gear, for Pineapple Farm Holidays is an adults-only site on a family-run farm within the countryside of the Dorset National Landscape. The site is set next to a small business park in some converted farm buildings 15 minutes' drive from Bridport and West Bay beach, so it is also in a prime location for days out by the coast. There's lots to look forward to at this place, whether it's the wildlife and picnic area (private and only for guests) or the apple orchard (accessible to all). Dogs are asked to be kept on the lead while around the pitches, but they're welcome to run off the lead in the orchard. All of the pitches have water, electricity and their very own firepit. From Pineapple Farm Holidays, it's easy to get stuck right into beaches with fossils and stunning views, including West Bay and Eype beach, both within a 15-minute drive. For any cravings, there is a country pub is under one and a half miles away (a 25-minute walk), dishing up fresh food. If you're still thirsty, the cider farm and vineyard (on the route back to the site) should have something for you. You can also drive five minutes south to stock up on local produce at the local farm shop. You need go no further, but you definitely will... Campfires are welcome in the complimentary firepits provided, and barbecues are welcome as long as they are raised from the ground. Pineapple Farm Holidays is part of Pineapple Estate, which includes the site, as well as a farm, a shop, a business park and self storage.

What customers say

This is a highly recommended, peaceful, adults-only campsite in a beautiful rural location, ideal for exploring the Jurassic Coast. Visitors praise the exceptionally clean facilities, friendly and helpful staff, and spacious, well-maintained pitches, many with water and electric. The on-site shop and orchard dog run are popular. Access involves narrow country lanes. Minor points raised include occasional Wi-Fi issues and the need for more shower facilities.

Honeysuckle electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Brilliant location for a couple of days of doing nothing.
The whole site was clean, tidy, and peaceful.
Staff were so friendly.
Lovely little closed in orchard to let the dog have a run and a play with fallen apples.

Disliked Only downside for us, was how close the pitches were, but this won't stop us from returning.

From the manager: We are really glad that you and Woody enjoyed your stay at Pineapple.
We look forward to welcoming you again.

Disliked Lack of showers and lavatory, could benefit ftom additional facilities including separate areas for hair drying etc.

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are very fortunate with our location and do enjoy sharing it with our guests.
We have 4 showers and a total of 7 toilets and rarely have a queue for use of these. Thank you for your suggestions of a separate hair-drying area, we will certainly consider that in our thoughts for improvements for coming seasons.

David B.

Honeysuckle electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked We stayed for five nights on one of the honeysuckle pitches which were a good size for our 6m tent and car, with electric and its own water supply (really handy).
The shop/reception staff are very friendly and welcoming and always greet you with a smile.
The site is quiet and peaceful in a beautiful rural location with views of the Dorset countryside, well kept and clean with nice walks and well stocked shop where you can also enjoy a bacon sandwich and tea.
The toilets and showers were clean and with plenty of hot water with the ladies toilet having a hairdryer.
Thank to all the staff of pineapple estates we hope to return very soon.

Honeysuckle electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked The closeness to Bridport but still quiet and with beautiful views. Loved the shop which was well stocked and the Orchard where we could take our dogs to run and play off lead. The site was clean and had everything you could wish for. Liked that your water was available at every pitch, no carrying heavy containers for any distance.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you so much for the complimentary review. We are so glad you enjoyed the site and hope you will return.

Excellent location, spacious plots, clean and modern facilities.

Local attractions

Head to West Bay (15 minutes' drive) for a first glimpse of the world-famous coastline; you'll get even better views on a boat cruise round the cliffs, or try kayaking it yourself. Abbotsbury (half an hour) is a popular spot to start walking the shingle airstrip-cum-sandbar that forms famous Chesil Beach. Charmouth Heritage Coast Centre (25 minutes) has fine examples of the fossils found nearby, including the Sea Dragon (an icthyosaur, in fact) unearthed in 2016. It's also the starting point for guided fossil hunts and rockpool rambles... you could come home with an icthyosaur of your own... West Bay lies on the mighty 680-mile South West Coast Path, but fret not, you don't have to walk it all. A trip round to the old lookout point of Thorncombe Beacon makes a pleasant ramble, especially as there's a pub at the end, or you could drive to Stonebarrow Hill (25 minutes) and explore the Golden Cap, a clifftop wilderness populated by peregrine falcons and butterflies. For diehard townies, there's a market selling something (vinyl or vintage, antiques and organics) in Bridport (15 minutes) almost daily and elegant Lyme Regis (half an hour) looks like a film set, especially when the fog rolls in.
