The Cabin at Strongate
Enjoy Seclusion near the Jurassic Coast
Strongate Orchard
Strongate Orchard is a secluded, comfy static cabin located in it's own orchard at Strongate Farm. It is the perfect base for families wanting to experience peace and quiet and explore the Jurassic coast and countryside. It is in a rural setting on a small working farm, surrounded by trees with a bridleway running through the farm so a walk from your doorstep can be enjoyed at any time of the day. The stunning Jurassic coastline harbour of West Bay (the location of Broadchurch on TV) is less than 4 miles away.
- SheilaDelicious scones and cream when we arrived. Caravan is well equipped. Lots to do in the area, and a lovely tranquil location to come back to after a day out and sit and chill by the fire pit. Thanks Tess – 20 Jul 2024read moreread less
- SimonWe had a lovely stay for 3 nights during the May half term. Before our visit we emailed Tessa asking for some recommendations of things to do with our 9 and 2 year old and she was extremely helpful.
The caravan was cosy and well equipped with a lovely added touch of fresh scones when we arrived.
The location was easy to find and close to some beautiful beaches. Lots of food and drink options nearby and plenty to see and do.
Our children loved helping with the farm animals and feeding the chickens, ducks and geese in the morning. Our 2 year old especially loved being able to collect the fresh eggs.
We would highly recommend as great pet and child friendly accommodation, well priced in a lovely location. – 30 May 2024read moreread less - KirstyWe had a fab weekend, with everything we could need. Tessa was the perfect host. The farm is beautiful, the kids loved helping let the chickens out and playing on the trampoline. It is a perfect base to explore the local area. – 30 Oct 2023read moreread less
- SonyaVery enjoyable stay. Tessa was incredibly friendly and welcoming. My Son loved being given a couple of jobs on the farm and being around the animals. Very beautiful surroundings and great location to access this part of Dorset. Thank you. – 23 Oct 2023read moreread less
- RachaelWe had a wonderful stay, we loved the location so peaceful, and the farm animals were a big hit with the kids, as was the trampoline. Tessa was a wonderful host and we totally recommend this cabin. – 28 Sep 2023read moreread less
- JonDORSET’S BEST KEPT SECRET! have been coming to Dorset since I was a child (40+ years) but Strongate Farm was easily one of the coolest places I’ve stayed.
Really friendly host in Tessa, who welcomed us with a cream tea and brought us fresh eggs from the hens. lots of animals around (including friendly dogs) and the fire pit was a bonus. if anything, the photos don’t do it justice. would definitely return. – 16 Aug 2023read moreread less - CharlotteTo find this accommodation in such a beautiful peaceful setting was a real joy, if you want a chocolate box snapshot of pretty Dorset farm life without having to do any of the hard work involved (!) then this is the place, idyllic setting, Bridport is gorgeous with plenty of shops and pubs etc, so easy to get to the beaches, just a short drive away … we will come back.. we loved it. – 29 Jul 2023read moreread less
- CatrinWe absolutely love Tessa’s cabin. Beautiful spot hidden away in the orchard on the gorgeous farm, away from all road noise but still very accessible and with so much to see and do locally. Beautiful beaches and interesting and quirky places nearby. We loved waking up to nothing but animal noises and birdsong. The cabin was really comfortable, surprisingly spacious and spotlessly clean with everything we needed. WiFi and smart TV was a bonus for our teenage son but the trampoline, chickens, geese and dogs soon distracted him. Tessa was a generous and kind host. One of the loveliest places we’ve ever stayed in. Thank you. – 02 Jun 2023read moreread less
