Trowbridge, England · 51 units · Tents, Motorhomes, Glamping
We are a family run farm situated in the beautiful Frome valley. The farm has a range of interests from the traditional Jersey milking cows to a community of workshops used by local craftsmen. The cafe serves cream teas from Easter to the end of September and pizzas are sold in evenings during the summer months.
Ours is a small family run camp site with the River Frome on one side, next to the medieval buildings of Stowford Farm. The river is suitable for fishing, boating, swimming and paddling. Historic Bradford-on-Avon is only a 5 minute drive and the City of Bath 15 minutes. For those who enjoy more rural pleasures, 200 metres from the campsite Farleigh Hungerford boasts the only river swimming club in the country, and you can become an instant member for a very small fee.

The Ibberton Yurt
Tucked away in the peaceful Dorset village of Ibberton, at the foot of Bulbarrow Hill, our traditional Mongolian yurt offers a private countryside escape within the grounds of The Ibberton.
The yurt sleeps up to four guests and combines the character and simplicity of glamping with proper home comforts. Inside there is a double bed and two single beds, along with comfortable seating, Wi-Fi, a fridge and space to relax. Guests also have their own separate private shower room with walk-in shower and toilet.
Outside, the yurt has its own deck and private garden area with a covered cookhouse, gas hob and BBQ facilities. The setting is particularly peaceful, with mature trees, a running stream and very little passing traffic. On clear nights, guests can lie in bed and look up through the yurt’s central crown at the stars.
The Ibberton pub is only a short walk away, serving homemade seasonal food, local ales and Dorset cider. It gives guests the choice of cooking something simple outside or wandering over for lunch, dinner or a drink without needing to drive.
The area is especially good for walkers and cyclists. Footpaths and quiet lanes begin almost from the door, while the Ibberton Millennium Path runs through the parish and is waymarked locally. Maps are available from The Ibberton. Bulbarrow Hill and Ibberton Hill are close by, with far-reaching views across the Blackmore Vale and surrounding Dorset countryside. The ancient Wessex Ridgeway also passes nearby.
A popular local walk links Ibberton with Bulbarrow Hill, taking around two hours and covering roughly 6–7km, while longer routes can take guests through Woolland, Milton Abbas and the surrounding chalk downland. (Tess Of The Vale)
For days out, guests can explore Sturminster Newton and the North Dorset Trailway, Sherborne and its Abbey, Shaftesbury and Gold Hill, Blandford Forum and Dorchester. The Jurassic Coast is also within reach for a full day out.

Corfe Castle, England · 1 unit
Andrea's Farm Breaks is Keepers Hut glamping accommodation run alongside a working farm campsite in the heart of Purbeck. Andrea is pleased to offer a little luxury for those who want to camp at Downshay Farm in a comfortable bed. Farm is a working farm in the heart of the Isle of Purbeck, ideally located for exploring the stunning World Heritage Site coastline. The Pike family has farmed here since 1956. The farmhouse is largely Victorian although parts of the house and some farm buildings are much older. The accommodation looks out over the lovely views of Corfe Castle and the Purbeck Hills. The seaside town of Swanage is just over 4 miles away as are the sandy beaches of Studland Bay. Local footpaths and Swanage Steam Railway also make exploring Purbeck easy, and we are a few minutes’ walk from Harmans Cross Station. Enjoy the sandy beaches of Shell Bay, Studland and Swanage or go rock pooling or fossil hunting at Kimmeridge Bay. The Coastal Path will take you along the coast to Durlston Country Park, Dancing Ledge and Winspit. The deserted village of Tyneham and its own bay is a short drive away, then follow the scenic road over the Ranges to Lulworth and Durdle Door. Local attractions include Monkey World and Bovington Tank Museum, and a walk through the RSPB bird sanctuary at Arne to Poole Harbour is recommended.

The yurt is absolutely beautiful and so well equipped - the hosts have thought about absolutely everything you might need- and everything you hadn't thought of! It's in a fantastic location too, with the pub nearby serving delicious food if you're not inclined to cook yourself. The hosts are lovely and go out of their way to help. Definitely 5* and can't wait to go back.

Weekend Trip to the willow yhurt
We booked a last minute one night away to stay in the yurt and everything was perfect.
The yurt is clean, cosy and has everything you need. A comfy double bed and two singles; one single bed pulls out from under the other, which made a great floor bed for our toddler. We had the option of using an electric heater, but we didn't need it as was plenty warm enough. Towels and bedding were provided, along with milk, tea and coffee. The shower room and toilets are a very short walk away; the toilets are inside The Ibberton pub and the showers are next to it (brand new and clean).
We cooked our breakfast (provided by the owners) on the gas stove in the covered outdoor kitchen area. Plenty of plates and utensils, including everything needed to wash up. There is an outside table and two camping chairs which we found very useful.
The surrounding area is quiet and peaceful. We enjoyed a walk up the hill behind the yurt and went to the local church. That night we had a lovely meal at the pub - delicious food and options for little ones too.
Highly recommend!

Weekend Trip to Forest Edge Camping & Glamping
If you're looking to relax and soak up nature this is a beautiful spot on the edge of the forest. We stayed in a Bell Tent with lovely extras with some nice fruit tea bags and sugar stir sticks. Everything looked brand new.
Very clean showers and toilet blocks - modern and fresh.
Nothing was too much trouble - don't normally camp but I would have been happy for a week with a good book but sadly could only stay one night :-(

1 night at Walnut Farm Glamping
We loved Hazel roundhouse. The freindliest welcome. Excellent facilities, beautifully designed. Views of the rolling countryside are great and the setting is really natural, watching a barn owl swooping over the meadow at dusk was a highlight, as well as star-gazing from the hot tub. We will definitely be returning.

2 nights at Andrea's Farm Breaks Keepers Hut
We recently had a wonderful stay at Andrea’s Keepers Hut. The hut is well equipped with amenities. We enjoyed being able to prepare meals at home using the hot plate. The Tassimo machine provided great tasting lattes in the morning. The hut was located in a quiet area. We had a great sleep in the comfy bed. The shower and washroom facilities were close to the hut (less than a minute walk) and very clean. Andrea greeted us on our arrival and provides lots of helpful information. We would definitely stay again if we are ever back in the area!

Absolute gem of a find. The location is great and the shepherds hut is super cosy with all the added extras. Bed was lovely a comfy too! We had a super stay and enjoyed the peace and quiet, could hear all the birds singing ! We loved having a fire in the evening in the chimera provided. We could see Corfe Castle from the hut and was a great view.
We will definitely be back. Our host Andrea was very friendly , helpful and responsive . Thankyou for a lovely stay

We had a really lovely stay in the Bustard Hut. It was peaceful, quaint, and beautifully designed. The interior was unique and thoughtfully put together, and the hut had great facilities considering its limited kitchen space.
The little touches like the marshmallows, bread, and condiments were very much appreciated.
The only downsides were that the hut wasn’t quite as private as it appeared in the pictures, as we could see and be seen by the neighbouring hut from the hot tub, which wasn’t quite what we imagined. Also, there weren’t any trolleys available on arrival, so there was a lot of back and forth with bags since you can’t park next to the hut.
A few things that would be useful to have are some barbecue tools and maybe a fire mitt, as we had to use kitchen utensils to manage the fire. Overall, we had a lovely stay and really enjoyed the thoughtful touches throughout.

A little piece of heaven! 💫
Stayed for 4 nights but felt I could’ve lived there. So well thought out and finished to a really high standard. The bed was so comfortable and the trip gave me everything I needed. The toilet block was a stones throw away, with hot showers.
The sunset views were a dream - thank you!

Amazing stay with beautiful views. The tent is equipped with everything you need and beds are comfortable.
The environment is very calm and pizza night really is a success, not only the pizza's are very nice but you get to know the other people staying - amazing if you have kids as they start playing together.
We had an amazing time and would definitely return and recommend the stay.

Had a really nice time at Rocombe Valley Retreat, Elliot was very welcoming on arrival, the bell tent was great and comfortable. The site was quiet and clean and they had a lot of essentials there ready to use in the shared kitchen, including a fridge/freezer to store food in. Wood fired hot tub was a nice treat to top it off.
