About this site

Portesham Dairy Farm Camp Site is a level, family-run campsite on a working farm at the edge of Portesham village, on the B3157 Jurassic Coast road in West Dorset. It sits about a 15 minute drive from Weymouth and the coast, with Abbotsbury and its Swannery close by and Dorchester, Bridport and Chesil Beach all within easy reach. Pitches suit tents, touring caravans and motorhomes, with a good number of level hardstandings, electric hook-up and a small play area for children. A 24 hour vending shop on site covers everyday basics. Just outside the entrance, Ducks Farm Shop and Cafe (about 50 yards away) serves breakfast and lunches, the King's Arms pub is roughly 200 yards along, and the X53 Jurassic Coast bus stops around 150 yards away. This is a quiet rural site rather than an entertainment park, so it suits campers after calm rather than anyone wanting on-site nightlife or a lively clubhouse. Dogs are welcome. The sheltered fields and clean, well kept shower and toilet facilities are what campers rate most, and the farm setting keeps things peaceful, give or take the resident crows at dawn and dusk. Contact Portesham Dairy Farm directly to check current pitch prices and opening dates before you travel.

Good to know

Are dogs allowed at Portesham Dairy Farm?
Yes, dogs are welcome at this family-run farm campsite. There is plenty of space on the level fields, and footpaths lead out into the West Dorset countryside. Reviews also mention on-site dog grooming and pampering facilities, so it is a practical choice for camping with pets.
What pitches are available?
The site offers pitches for tents, touring caravans and motorhomes, with a large proportion of level hardstandings and electric hook-up available. It is a sheltered, level site with a small children's play area, which makes pitching and setting up straightforward for both tents and larger units.
How far is the beach and Jurassic Coast?
Portesham sits on the B3157 Jurassic Coast road, about a 15 minute drive from Weymouth and the coast. Abbotsbury, Chesil Beach and the Swannery are close by, so the site works as a handy base for exploring the beaches and villages of the West Dorset shoreline.
Is there a shop or pub nearby?
Yes, a 24 hour vending shop on site covers essentials at any time. Ducks Farm Shop and Cafe is about 50 yards from the entrance for breakfast and lunch, the King's Arms pub is around 200 yards away, and the X53 Jurassic Coast bus stops close by.
Does it have electric hook-up and good facilities?
Yes, electric hook-up is available, and campers consistently praise how clean the shower and toilet facilities are. The site is level and sheltered, with easy access, on-site vending and a children's play area, which makes it comfortable for families and couples touring the coast.
How do I check prices and opening dates?
Prices are not published on the website, so contact Portesham Dairy Farm directly to confirm current nightly rates, pitch availability and opening dates. Booking ahead is wise in summer, when the West Dorset coast and nearby Abbotsbury draw plenty of visitors to the area.
