  • Fridfull paddock omgiven av fält i utkanten av en lugn by
  • Nära Jurassic Coast och en kvart i bil från havet
  • Massor av utrymme för barnlek, tre minuters promenad till en lokal pub
A pretty paddock surrounded by fields on the edge of a village is the name of the game here: behind a greystone farmhouse in Dorset, the bell tents at Higher Lewell Farmhouse are settled comfortably away from the action. The site is central to the Jurassic Coast's spectacular seas and cliffs, 20 minutes from Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door and under 40 minutes from Burton Bradstock, Charmouth, Lyme Regis, Chesil beach, Studland, Sandbanks, Swanage and Kimmeridge. It's also 20 minutes from Monkey World and the Tank Museum. The exceptionally roomy field at Higher Lewell has plenty of parking space, heaps of room for kids to play in (using some of the treats in the site's box full of toys) and more than enough space for your outdoor furniture, barbecue and whatever else you decide to bring to furnish your new home. In the field close to the pitches is a camping kitchen with a fridge/freezer, microwave, toaster, kettle and charging points for phones; crockery and cutlery are provided, along with tea, coffee and sugar. Two toilets and two showers (both plumbed into the mains) are up here too. Friendly dogs are more than welcome, but the site owners require that visiting dogs are completely comfortable and happy with cats, chickens and other people and dogs. If you're partial to a pint or want to know where you can relieve yourself of barbecue duties and tuck into some tasty pub grub, then you're in luck: Higher Lewell is a very handy three-minute walk from its nearest local inn, where you can enjoy a tipple or two alongside good meals, all while taking in some smashing sunset views out on the terrace. The pub can cook you breakfast if you want to tuck in before a day of Dorset sightseeing. Slightly further afield, there are also heaps of good eats to be had around central Dorchester, with lots of popular big eateries around Brewery Square and takeaways aplenty. Several more restaurants and pubs are at Weymouth harbour, 15 minutes' drive away, and several more pubs serving food are within a 15-minute drive at most.

Vad våra kunder säger om oss

Liten, trevlig glamping med bekväma bell tents. Fridfull atmosfär, rena faciliteter och välutrustat kök. Braskaminer, ljusslingor och "clubhouse" med spel uppskattas av barnfamiljer. Värden Sophia är välkomnande. Mindre problem med duschar och begränsad tillgång till grill/sittplatser.

Studland klocktält

Tyckte om The tent set up meant our late arrival required no real set up other than bed for our son and cage for the dogs.
Fire equipment avaliable at tent although unused and fairy lights in tents useful

Tyckte inte om Arrived to people in our tent we booked.
No host avaliable to talk to upon driving in.
Wasnt given change when paying cash or even the option of this.
No seating equipment avaliable as all other guests had taken already.
No bbqs avaliable by tents.

Electric is only avaliable in kitchen area meaning you have to leave items in there

Från föreståndaren: Very sorry i completely forgot to move the tent signs to accommodate a group of 3 tents i had. As soon as I got home I went out to the tents to see you but you had already gone out for the evening. Another camper i spoke to said you were very happy in the tent you had. They are all exactly the same. Apologies I was not at home when you arrived, you could have called me.
Also sorry you did not get any change, if you had asked i of course would have given you some. I assumed you didn't want any as left the money with my husband and didn't ask for any. I came out to see you twice more but again you weren't there. We have tables, chairs and bbqs for the whole campsite to share, unfortunately we haven't yet been able to afford one for each tent. If you had asked i could have given you ours from our garden. The free fire pit and bucket of logs by your tent could have been used to cook on.

Abbotsbury klocktält

Tyckte om Lovely site, with great facilities. We had two nights with one other family on the site and one night to ourselves, because we broke up for summer quite early, so it was very spacious and relaxed. Even if more tents had been occupied they are well spaced and there is a lot of open space for everyone. Very near the pub! Easy access to beaches and walks. We had a great time.

Durdle Door klocktält

Tyckte om Absolutely lovley. Tent was clean, roomy and sturdy, even during a bad storm. Campsite well presented and clean. Facilities were nice and had everything we needed provided in the kitchen.

Tyckte inte om WiFi would have been a nice extra and the shower was a bit hard to work out.

I imagine at busier times there might have been a fight to use kitchen.

Extra under shelter tables in the communal area would have been good for when raining.

Studland klocktält

Tyckte om Tucked away small glampimg site with toilet, shower and kitchen facilities pretty close to the tents. Thanks to the hosts for even putting some balls and mini football nets to keep kids busy. Parking next to the tent was a blessing with enough tables and chairs to share. Fire pit with enough logs were provided to let us enjoy bonfire. Sophia is an amazing host and even stopped by couple of times to check if we needed anything. We'll surely be staying there in future again.

Studland klocktält

Tyckte om Excellent campsite, we stayed with 2 other families, 6 adults, 5 kids and 2 dogs in total. Great bell tents with a double mattress. Toilets, showers, kitchen area with fridge and freezer made life easier! Fire pit supplied with logs and also there are 2 bbqs so we used them to cook dinner!
This was our second time visiting and we will be back next year!

Studland klocktält

Tyckte om Really enjoyed our stay - the campsite is small and very pretty. The boys (7 and 9) loved the “clubhouse” tent where they could play, and the football pitch - and they made friends very quickly.

We stayed at Higher Lewell so we could go to camp bestival (day tickets) and this is a great way to do the festival and then have a day at the beach.

The tents are cute and facilities are great. Sophia the host is lovely and very helpful.

Tyckte inte om Our ONLY complaint is the noise of the cows. So deffo take adult ear plugs (however kids didn’t notice them at all).

Studland klocktält

Tyckte om Lovely small campsite which suited us perfectly. Great location. The children played with the other children on the site, which was lovely. The kids games tent was a bonus. Good showers and toilets.

Tyckte inte om Didn’t dislike anything only issues, which were very minor, was the lights in our tent didn’t work and the kettle didn’t have the limescale guard.

Rekommendera för vänner Besök igen

Från föreståndaren: I really am so sorry the lights in your tent didnt work. Sometimes the batteries run out after we have checked them. I have plenty more and if you had let me know i could have given you some. I also apologise there was no limescale guard, thank you for letting me know, i will replace this.

Lokala sevärdheter

Your hosts are more than happy to plan days out for you before and during your visit – they're big fans of Dorset and are keen for you to see as many of the best bits as you can during your stay, so have stocked up on plenty of maps, leaflets and even created their own sightseeing itineraries to help their guests get the most out of the their stay. Particularly recommended in the area are Monkey World, the steam train to Swanage, Weymouth beach, Bovington Tank Museum, Kingston Maurward animal park, Farmer Palmers, Abbotsbury Sub-Tropical Gardens and Bridport's famous street markets. Buckets and spades of seaside opps are within easy reach of the site too: a 15-minute drive away, Ringstead is your nearest beach, and you're less than 30 minutes away from several other seaside towns and award-winning beaches such as Lulworth Cove, Durdle Door, Weymouth, Chesil Beach and Kimmeridge. Within an hour are Studland, Swanage, Sandbanks, West Bay, Charmouth and Lyme Regis; sea fishing trips can be arranged from Weymouth, Lyme Regis and West Bay. For a spot of history, Dorset County Museum in Dorchester centre regales visitors with the history of the area's iconic Jurassic coast, and Dorset and Devon Military Museum provides smashing views over the landscape from the top of its keep. The stately home of Athelhampton House and Gardens is five miles from base, and the ruins of Corfe Castle lie a 20-minute drive away. Other options are the biggest Iron Age hill fort in Europe, Maiden Castle two miles away; Thomas Hardy’s cottage and Max Gate (Thomas Hardy’s permanent home) both within five miles, and the Keep Military Museum in Dorchester, with spectacular views over the surrounding countryside.
