Wild Camping on the beautiful Isle of Portland. Come and enjoy the many activities it has to share; from horse riding, walking, rock climbing, bird watching, fishing, sailing or enjoying ice creams at the famous Portland Bill lighthouse. Portland is a tied island, 4 miles long and just 5 miles south from Weymouth, forming the southernmost point of the county of Dorset. The Jurassic Chesil Beach joins it to the mainland.


The space:
Our private land offers wild camping in a glorious location with uninterrupted views over to Portland Bill. By day you will see kestrels, owls and wildflowers, and with zero light pollution, by night you can enjoy the most beautiful star gazing. We offer nearly wild camping. With minimal facilities and as little impact on the land as possible, we have handcrafted compost toilets and cold water on tap in each field. Come prepared for some wild weather but enjoy the breathtaking landscapes and coastline.

We own a riding school so you can also book to ride and see the island on horseback.

* Please note you do not have the fields exclusively.
