1/8

What a handy location this is for a rural Dorset holiday – Shilvington Barn campsite is above the tiny hamlet of Coryates, less than 20 minutes’ drive from Dorchester, Weymouth and the gorgeous Jurassic Coast. This is a family-run working farm, with the site cows always somewhere nearby, and often more animals lurking in the surrounding hedgerows (deer, buzzards, rabbits and foxes can often be seen around the place). If you fancy getting to know some of the residents, book an alpaca experience on site. As well as being handy for getting out and about, this location is also rather stunning – the grass pitches have 360-degree views out over the Dorset countryside to Chesil Beach and the sea beyond, and often take in stunning sunrises/sunsets over the surrounding hills too. Lots of circular walking routes can be followed nearby, including the ramble to Hardy’s Monument two miles away. Life on site is pretty relaxed, with plenty of space for kids and dogs to stretch their legs, and access to a basic washing-up area and communal portable showers and portable toilets. Bring along a barbecue or hire a firepit on site and you can cook up burgers from the farm and other local produce that can be bought on site. You can also source pints at a couple of local pubs two and a half miles away.

Lokale attraksjoner

To the Dorset coast first? The famed 18-mile Chesil Beach is about 15 minutes’ drive away, with plenty of scope for walks or days of sea fishing. Sailing and surfing types should set off instead for Portland Harbour (20 minutes’ drive), and paddleboarders, kayakers and swimmers alike can all get a close-up view of Durdle Door by setting off from its adjacent beach or Lulworth Cove (35 minutes). Proper sand-based family fun, meanwhile, can be had in Weymouth (20 minutes), which is also home to the excellent Sea Life Centre. Of course, Dorset’s not all about the coast, and there are also some great days out to be had around Dorchester (15 minutes), perhaps visiting the brewery, the dinosaur museum or the teddy bear museum, or setting off to explore Sculpture by the Lakes (25 minuntes). And if you’d like to include animal viewings on your schedule, plan some time at Abbotsbury Swannery and Subtropical Gardens (15 minutes) or Kingston Maurward Gardens & Animal Park (20 minutes).

Likte: Lovely open site, lots of space even on august bank holiday. Very friendly and helpful reception, beautiful walks from the site. Compost loos were fine and good hot showers. Quiet and friendly. It’s a bit windy so bring a windbreak!

Spisstelt

Likte: Bell tent was lovely and spacious, as a first experience for my little boy, he loved it! Beautiful views, tranquil and good for the soul environment. Annabel was lovely and very welcoming.

Likte ikke: The only dislike is people pitching very close to you which didn’t make it a very peaceful experience.

Likte: What a wonderful site. The views were gorgeous and it is a perfect location for exploring the surrounding area with so many place to go, and lovely walks straight from the site. The facilities were excellent and the best thing was being able to choose our own pitch and not feel crowded. We will be back.

Spisstelt

Likte: Nice views, bell tent was lovely. spacious pitches.

Likte ikke: We had a disposable barbeque and struggled to find anything to lift it of the ground to save the grass. other sites have some brick piles around to use for this purpose maybe it would be a good idea as i noticed a few people were having the same issue.

Likte: Stunning views and a peaceful location. Owners were very friendly and pleasant. Showers were absolutely lovely and hot every time. Enjoyed the stay and fire pit use, keeping us warm and cosy as the sun went down. Great location, local to nearby beaches and attractions.

Likte: Wonderful remote location with spectacular views of almost 360 degrees. View of Chesil Beach, sea and lush farmland. Just a few sheep in the field next door bleeping away. Long drop compost toilets clean and well managed. Superb showers. Rustic but very hot and cleverly designed. Delightful. Pleasant sink area for pots. Very spacious site. We loved everything.

Likte ikke: Nothing
