  • 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

Seaview Farm offers a back-to-basics camping experience with stunning views and a peaceful atmosphere. Pitches are generously sized and well-spaced. Basic but clean portaloos and showers are regularly maintained, with hot water available. The site's excellent location provides easy access to local amenities, bus routes, and coastal paths. While generally quiet, occasional wind can be expected. Some minor improvements to facilities are suggested by guests.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked Beautiful location. Very basic but in a good location. Loved the open top shower!! Owners very friendly and helpful. It was very hot when we arrived and they allowed us to move our pitch to one with some shade.

Disliked Nothing. Although it was extremely hot and the site is very exposed, very little shade and can get windy! Not the owners fault as they don’t control the weather! :)

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked Absolutely brilliant campsite. Plenty of space and was extremely cheap to stay for 3 days. Proximity to shops and great beaches is a clear bonus. Shower was amazing, especially with the open top under the stars! Super great sunset views from campsite.

Disliked Toilets are a bit on the basic side with some of the flush not working, but only minor considering the super low price we paid.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked Simple campsite with a great view and easy to get to without a car.
Sunset colours against the bay were magical.

I didn't have a campfire but a few others on the field did which was a nice perk.
I had a little backpacking stove so was glad to have some breeze blocks on the side to raise off the dry grass.

I got an email with pitch number and instructions so could just turn up and setup.
It was quiet during my visit so loads of space between campers, Everyone was considerate and quiet by like 11pm.

Facilities were chemical portaloos and portaloo style showers which were basic enough and did the job.

I visited on foot, about 5 mins away from the bus stop Number 8 and x52, and an Aldi to get food and supplies. Buses in Dorset are a little sparse so downloading the first bus app is a must or you'll be waiting ages. I walked into Weymouth after dropping off my backpack which took 50 mins. I wouldn't walk to the campsite loaded up as the route is all up hill from the station.

Disliked Location is behind an MoD camp who although were super quiet, did have flood lights on all night making it harder to see all the stars.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked The view
Large pitches

Disliked Large loud group with about 100 kids all screaming and climbing on other peoples cars and tents. Played loud rubbish music until very late then again from 6am.
I think there were a lot of complaints to the owners and they tried to sort it but they didnt care and just turned the music down when owners came.
Not many toilets

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.
