About Sweet Hill Farm

Spread across approximately five acres of level ground with stunning views towards Portland Bill and the Dorset coastline, camping here is a treat. Keeping things refreshingly simple, with minimal facilities leaving as little impact on the land as possible. All pitches are on grass and provide an almost wild camping experience for tents and small campervans, with sunrise, sunsets, and stargazing aplenty on the shared camping field. Please bring own camping equipment. Just a short walk will take you to the cliff edge, the perfect sunset watching spot over beautiful blue waters. You'll also find the site is home to plenty of wildlife including owls and kestrels, and there's no light pollution here too - ideal for nights under a starry sky. In peak season and holidays, enjoy the daily specials from the onsite food canteen! Dogs welcome at an additional cost and the site own a horse riding school too, with bookable riding lessons.

Sweet Hill Farm is open from 09/02 to 31/10 in 2024 and from 14/02 to 02/11 in 2025.

VW-Type Campervan - Optional Electric Grass Pitches (Sammy's Paddock)Sep 2024

This is a rural site with pigs, goats & horses. It is peaceful. Bring wellies if it's wet, as it can muddy. Lovely helpful staff. You can purchase tea, coffee & cake. Good, hot showers paid for with tokens.

Beautiful location

Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches (Sunrise Patch)Sep 2024

Really lovely location, beautiful walks and views. Says they don't allow big same sex groups, however we were kept awake most of the night by a big group who were drinking and being very loud. We don't have a problem usually but we booked this because we thought it would be quieter.

Great location

VW-Type Campervan - Electric Grass Pitches (Mollie's Meadow)Sep 2024

A great spot overlooking the Portland Bill lighthouse. It is a working farm, with lots of animals to look at and peaceful, with a festival/wild camping vibe. Such a lovely place.
