Looking for a peaceful shepherd's hut adventure on a Dorset working farm? One where you can unwind in the lovely countryside? Step forward Troytown Farm, where there is a tucked-away shepherd's hut just 10 minutes’ drive from the historic county town of Dorchester. Well-maintained, small and family friendly, this site's rural location is splendid. Tucked away on a quiet corner of the farm, the shepherd's hut overlooks pasture where you may well see sheep grazing, and there’s ancient woodland to explore beyond the fields. Less than a mile away is Puddletown forest, a walker's haven which has some of the best views of the local area. It's home to rare insects, nesting birds and miles of well-maintained trails. If you want to get the barbecue going (bring your own from home), pick up tasty morsels from Dorchester supermarkets or delis to grill. Should you fancy a break from cooking, several traditional Dorset cider pubs are within 10 minutes’ drive. About the same distance away are golf courses and museums – the Dorset Teddy Bear Museum may become a firm favourite with the kids. Exploring a bit further afield, you can be on Weymouth beach in 20 minutes’ drive. On site, the water is not suitable for drinking, so bottled water is advised for drinking, brushing teeth and washing fruit and vegetables.

Likte: Absolutely everything! After a busy week at work we like a quiet spot for a night to chill. I thought we had found the best place but it now has competition. We had the field to ourselves, sat outside in the sunshine until well into the evening.
The campsite is basic but perfect for what we wanted. The grass was very well maintained.
I loved sitting listening to the lambs in the field.
Whilst there are some comments about the main road, yes you can hear it but even on a busy Friday afternoon it was minimal and certainly never bothered us.
We will most definitely be back 😄😄😄

Likte ikke: Nothing except having to leave

Likte: Lovely small site just 25mins away which was perfect to chill. Water and chemical waste available but you need to be self sufficient which was fine for us. Would need car to get around to places or decamp but we just wanted a chilled weekend with the dogs not far from home.
There’s a Shepherds hut on site as well

Likte ikke: Working farm opposite side of road to pitch so obviously the tractor noise late night early morning but that’s to be expected so it’s not a dislike but just to let others know. When in the country you expect this.

Likte: The shepherd's hut has been beautifully restored and furnished by the owners and provides all the facilities needed for an enjoyable stay. The hut has its own fenced-off space separate from the main camping area and there is a fire basket outside with chairs and a table. The area is surrounded by trees and looks up a field to woods where there was a carpet of bluebells in early May.

Lokale attraksjoner

Don the walking boots and step out into the Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (10 minutes’ drive) for family rambles, or cycle bike routes that take in Corfe Castle (25 minutes’ by bike) and riverside Wareham (an hour and a half). For seaside hikes, have a mooch along the shingle at Chesil Beach (half an hour’s drive) on the spectacular Jurassic Coast, or hit the South West Coast Path at Bowleaze Cove (20 minutes) for more challenging rambles along the clifftops. To mix up outdoor exercise with some sneaky history lessons for the kids, head for the mysterious – possibly Saxon – figure of the Cerne Abbas Giant (20 minutes) straddling the hillside, or hike up to the circular Iron Age fort at Maiden Castle (15 minutes). Fast-forward several millennia to see the Osmington White Horse (25 minutes), originally carved into the hillside in 1808. Beaches may well be a priority for family day trips, with bucket-list spots including the sliver of sand at horseshoe-shaped Lulworth Cove (half an hour), or the long sandy strip at Weymouth (20 minutes), with its child-friendly sand sculptures and funfair.
