Offering a picturesque and serene outdoor setting for holidays, Martleaves Farm is a beautifully appointed, adult-only campsite located on the Dorset coast between Weymouth and Portland. Set within the mesmerizing Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site, this campsite spans 34 acres of breathtaking countryside.

Designated as a site of special scientific interest (SSSI), Martleaves is a haven for nature enthusiasts and bird watchers alike. With its proximity to Chesil Beach and the charming seaside town of Weymouth, as well as the historic site of the 2012 Olympics in Portland, this site provides a unique blend of rural charm and coastal beauty.

One of the standout features of Martleaves Farm Campsite is its welcoming attitude toward various types of campers. Whether you arrive with a touring caravan, motorhome, campervan, or traditional tent, the campsite caters to all, offering short breaks throughout the entire year. The campsite's commitment to inclusivity is further exemplified by its provision for paddleboarding and kayaking in the nearby Fleet Lagoon, allowing campers to bring and use their own equipment for a delightful aquatic experience just 300 meters from the farm.

The diverse array of animals on the farm adds an extra layer of charm to the camping experience. Alpacas, Shetland ponies, horses, pet pigs, free-range chickens, ducks, geese, and sheep contribute to the farm's lively atmosphere. To ensure the safety and harmony of the animals, dogs are required to be kept on leads until away from the farm. Fortunately, there's a convenient footpath leading down to the sea, where dogs can be let off their leads, allowing both campers and their furry companions to enjoy the natural surroundings.

The campsite's facilities are thoughtfully designed to enhance the overall camping experience. Three centrally heated shower and toilet blocks, along with a purple wet room, ensure that campers have access to clean and comfortable amenities. The daily cleaning and replenishing of showers and toilets reflect the campsite's commitment to maintaining high standards of hygiene. For those needing to attend to practical matters, a well-equipped laundry room with a fridge freezer and indoor and outdoor sinks is available. Additionally, a hose on the farmyard facilitates the cleaning of muddy dogs and boots, demonstrating the campsite's attention to detail and camper convenience.

Martleaves Farm goes beyond the typical camping experience by offering farm-fresh products for sale in the farmhouse porch. Campers can indulge in free-range rare breed chicken, bantam, duck, and goose eggs (when available), providing a taste of the local agricultural offerings. The campsite also sells local Dorset Honey and a range of toiletries for campers who may have forgotten essentials, showcasing a commitment to ensuring a comfortable and convenient stay for all.

Brilliant campsite!

Morgan, Lillian - 10/05/2025

Such a beautiful spot. Super easy check in/ check outprocess. Very central - you can easily trek it to portland (30 or more & great way to start the 20km circuit around the isle) or quick bus (8min from campground). For some reason apple maps says the campground is temporarily closed, this wasn’t the case and it was all open when we showed up (late May).

Check in was very easy, the bathroom facilities were excellent. The site itself appears a bit chaotic and is dominated by camper and whilst the tent field is very small.

Great views over the Chesil Beach/Bank. Short walk to the South West Coast Path. Adjacent to farm fields with Alpacas and horses roaming. Fascinating to watch the Alpacas that are friendly and nosy. Wonderful to see the horses galloping around their field too. Facilities good, ladies toilets/showers have been updated. Not far to walk for a shop and bar/restaurants.

Easter break away

Great camping site that had all utilities necessary for cleaning and washing, me and my partner has a small plot in the north part of the site which was perfect for our day trips in and out without disturbing other campers, only downside was 60mph winds one night Hahaha,I would definitely recommend this campsite to family and friends.

Friendly and peaceful

Arrived for our very first camping trip in the camper we just bought. Greeted once we arrived, and had everything explained to us. Toilets and showers were always very clean, and showers powerful, but would have liked them to be a bit hotter. Washing up area also nice clean and tidy. We enjoyed the fact that it was an adult only site. Lovely to see the donkeys, goats, alpacas, chickens and geese all around the farm. The horses in the stables also all lovely, poking their heads out to watch you walking by first thing in the morning. Also nice to be able to buy freshly laid eggs.Lovely walk down a path next to the site, which takes you to the beach, and also a nature reserve, but we didn’t get time to walk on the reserve. Quite a short walk to a local pub and shop tooDefinitely stay again in the future.
