Sunset from site
Early morning at brewery farm
Peaceful location.
Roomy hardstanding pitches

  • Quiet farm site surrounded by footpaths in the Dorset village of Ansty
  • Half an hour's drive from Weymouth, Poole and the Jurassic Coast
  • Farm shop on site; pub with food next door
They might not make beer at Brewery Farm, but this fab Dorset site serves up good times in grand surrounds, and there's a pub right next door for good measure… If you’re into history, there’s lots of it to be supped and savoured in the area; same goes for walks, beaches, boat rides… the whole lot of it easily accessible from a berth on this peaceful and friendly site. Facilities include a shop, selling the farm’s own produce; if you want to grill up an alfresco feast, go ahead – barbecues are permitted. The suitably ancient and rural inn over the road serves fresh locally sourced food as well, along with local ales to relax with at the end of a day of outings. Fancy exploring the area slowly? Ask the team to point you towards the network of country footpaths, through some of Dorset’s finest countryside.

Liked: We had a lovely couple of days as Brewery Farm. We will definitely go again.
The facilities were clean & warm.
You could hire fire pits & buy logs which our son loved to toast marshmallows.

The site was lovely and quiet and the views were beautiful. Pub & a well stocked Village shop a short walk away.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: Cracking little site, only 11 hard standing pitches so nice and quiet.

We took advantage of the earlier than usual check in time, arrived early afternoon and got the pick of the pitches, right in the top corner with awesome views over the surrounding countryside.

Friendly self check in information on the Reception door and great that we were left to our own devices.

Fantastic facilities too, nice a clean and well stocked Farm shop adjacent.

Great weather for the month of March so made a point of lighting up one of the fire pits to keep warm whilst watching the stars come out after enjoying a few pints in the Pub over the road.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: Shower block

Disliked: Very water logged.
Sharp stones on the hard standing pitches. We had 2 tyres punctured with sharp flint stones (which ruined the tyres) and found lots all over the place, and we stayed on 2 different pitches

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: We are sorry to read this review but glad you liked the shower block.

As you will see from others who have visited recently mud has been a problem, but are understanding that this time of the year it is likely. You are the first to suffer a puncture and we are sorry to hear this.

Excellent site, level pitches, quiet, great facilities,would return.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: Remote, peaceful site
Picturesque
Amazing clean, warm bathrooms
Covered washing up facilities with super hot water
Very close to a great pub

Disliked: Pitches could do with being wider as it gets very muddy (can't be helped) and we couldn't get round the van without getting muddy shoes each time. Maybe a bit of new shingle required.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your nice review and being understanding with the mud. We have plans to widen the pitches just as soon as we get a dry spell of weather.

Simplicity. Showers and toilets were clean and warm. Quiet pitch.…

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: The facilities block was fantastic. It's just what you need in the winter. Warm cubicles with showers, toilet and sink which are big enough for a small family to use together. The washing up area, complete with washing up bowls and hot water was also great. There's a comprehensive farm shop next door and the pub food was fantastic

From the manager: Thank you so much for your review and we hope to see you again soon!

Local attractions

If beaches are your bag, you’ve hit the big time here as the Jurassic Coast is studded not just with fossils but also sandy coves and rocky inlets: Lulworth Cove is a 40-minute drive away, and if you fancy something wilder, Winspit beach is accessible only by a footpath from Worth Matravers (45 minutes). Another fine way to explore the coast is to make for Weymouth or Poole, both half an hour away, for a boat cruise. Both towns are crammed with further family-friendly attractions including funfairs and an aquarium in Weymouth, and slides and chutes and waterfalls at Poole’s Splashdown waterpark. Monkey World and the Tank Museum are also around half an hour away. For an easy way to see the chalk hills and valleys of inland Dorset, take a seat on the Swanage Railway (50 minutes) for steam rides between the coast and Corfe Castle (40 minutes by car). The castle is well worth clambering over; if anyone’s missing the water, make for the nearby Dorset Waterpark for floating inflatable obstacle courses in a wooded lakeland setting. For another day out with a difference, the graceful residents of Abbotsbury Swannery (45 minutes) were once kept by local monks for the purposes of scoffing at banquets. You can now visit the country's only nesting colony of mute swans and feed them, as well as get lost in the maze, hurtle about the adventure playground and roam the nearby subtropical gardens.
