Hobby Farm is the perfect base for a kid-free holiday, set within the Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, providing adults with heaps of peace and space for serene escapes from the daily grind. Guests without kids can opt to pitch a tent or park up on non-electric grass plots and enjoy a tranquil atmosphere, far removed from the bustle of seaside campsite packed to the brim with families making the most of the school holidays. Swap the jangle of ice cream vans for romantic, rolling countryside views, ample space to pitch a tent and a notable sense of calm. The camping meadow lies amid mature trees and hedgerows, providing campers with a sense of privacy. A sizeable gleaming pond bound by elders and willows serves as a lovely spot to spread out a blanket and watch dragonflies flitter over the waters. There are no more than nine pitches in total, with no electric-hookups, ensuring a low-density site where traditional camping is the order of the day. If you’re not keen to give up your creature comforts, consider staying in the swish traditional shepherd’s huts with a private parking space. Ask cheery owners Tom and Gaby for recommendations on the local pubs and the most scenic walking routes nearby. Barbeques are encouraged, and pets most welcome.
