  • Wild-style camping with stunning views over the Jurassic Coast
  • A 10-minute drive from Weymouth; 15 minutes to Isle of Portland
  • Footpath leading to the coast path; a short walk to pubs and amenities
Check out those views… True to its name, Seaview Farm is right on the Jurassic Coast, with stunning views out over Chesil Beach and the Fleet Lagoon. You could quite possibly sit and stare at those views for many hours here (and if you choose to do that, you may be pleased to know that you’re welcome to spark up a barbecue for cooking and keeping warm while you watch the sunset over the sea). Not content with sitting still? This is a cracking location for walkers in particular: footpaths lead off from the farm in all directions, including one that heads off down towards the South West Coast Path and beyond to the Isle of Portland. A supermarket, a clutch of takeaways and several pubs are within walking distance too. You could, in fact, ditch the car for much of your stay at this Dorset site: there’s a bus stop a short walk away for jaunts around the area by public transport. If you are driving, however, you can get to Weymouth town centre and beach with a journey of less than 10 minutes, to Durdle Door or West Bay in about half an hour, or inland to the Cerne Abbas Giant in a similar amount of time. This is a wild-style stay with pitches on a spacious and slightly sloping field accessed via a track. There are no electrical connections here, but guests will have access to water, regularly serviced portable toilets and showers.

What customers say

Spacious, basic site with stunning sea views & friendly owners. Generous pitches. Portaloos/showers generally clean, but could use updates. Campfires allowed. Close to amenities & walks, though waterside access is tough. Peaceful, back-to-basics stay.

Jen H.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked Really friendly owners/operators who were visible on site a lot and happy to chat.
The pitches are nicely spaced so you didn’t feel too close to each other.
Good location with nice views over estuary.
Short walk to shops (Aldi) and bus into Weymouth.
Dark surroundings so stars looked great at night.
Raised fires and BBQs allowed - hurray.
Good communication arrival email.

Disliked Loos seemed to get dirty (people not flushing before number 2s = sticky poos left in toilet bowl in mornings!). Perhaps a bigger sign to ask people to flush before (and after obviously)? But they were cleaned at least once a day.

Easy win: More hooks to hang things in showers please.
Water could get a little hot but this was pre-warned in detailed arrival email.

Larger groups were a little noisy, but you get them everywhere, especially a busy bank holiday weekend.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked View was lovely. Portals only which were clean. There was a van selling coffee and sandwiches in the morning but we didn’t use it.

Disliked Tiny sign on the top of the road with their name which said tents only and as we were a camper van we drive past.
Close to a river or a large water pond which attracted too many tiny insects for my linking.
It was extremely basic, which is fine if that’s what you want.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked site was clean

Disliked The behaviour of others staying making it very disruptive for others. Behaviour like this should not be accepted as makes the experience for others unpleasant . The family had a disagreement but voiced were raised , aweful language . This went on for 2 hours ! I don't expect my daughter to have to listen to that when all we wanted was a nice peaceful and happy night camping

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked It is very organised and very clean area.

Disliked It is not dislike but suggestion , please just please check the area when visitors are gone because it just happen that some peg just left by visitors and it is very sharp and not good for the tires. But over all I am satisfied with the clean facilities. Thanks

Gaynor J.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked Lovely basic pitch nice to know it's used for the animals when not a campsite, lovely view pitch was so large Iwas shocked, plenty of toilet availability.

Disliked Track to pitch very damaging to your car if has been lowered but that's more my problem then the farms as is used for animals. Didn't like being td where to pitch we got out near very noisy teenagers who had no respect for the people around them for this reason I sadly would not book again.

Local attractions

You’re bound to want to explore the Dorset coastline a little further once you’ve spied the sea from the site, so set off for a stroll along the coast path or plot a course to Weymouth (10 minutes’ drive) to play on the sand or meet the marine creatures at the Sea Life Centre. A couple of Dorset’s main icons – Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door – are about half an hour away by car, but there are plenty of quieter corners around to visit too. If you’re keen to give your hiking boots a good workout, start with a wander around the Hardy Monument or explore trails in the Valley of Stones National Nature Reserve (both 10 minutes’ drive). Mix in a bit of history as you walk with outings to Portland Castle or Jordan Hill Roman Temple (both 15 minutes) or get up close to the Cerne Giant (half an hour). For more days out, try Abbotsbury (15 minutes) for the swannery and subtropical gardens or Dorchester (20 minutes) for the dinosaur and teddy bear museums and Maiden Castle fort.
