Brickyard Farm Camping is a family-run wild site, round about two minutes’ drive from Shaftesbury in Dorset. It’s also only 20 minutes from the A303, making a convenient stop enroute to Devon and Cornwall. Welcoming families, couples and solo travellers, the spacious level meadow has mown pitches and is protected from the elements by hedges and mature trees. This campsite offers a true back-to-basics experience. Firepits are available to rent, and you can purchase wood on site to show the kids how to build a campfire under a star-filled sky. Your booking here also includes free membership for the Wanderlust Camping Club, which also covers future stays at a variety of eco-friendly UK retreats. It’s only 20 minutes’ walk up the hill into Shaftesbury town centre, with its handy supermarkets, traditional pubs, cafés, boutiques, artisan bakeries (check out Saturday pop-up bakery at The Grosvenor Arms) and numerous antique shops. Brickyard Farm is also pretty much next-door to the Gillingham and Shaftesbury Show Field, so it’s a handy spot to pitch up when visiting one of the many annual events.Brickyard Farm Camping is a family-run wild site with a semi-rural vibe round about two minutes’ drive from Shaftesbury in Dorset.
