About Pineapple Farm Holidays

This adult only site is located on family-run farm tucked within the countryside of the Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Just 15 minutes from Bridport and West Bay beach, you will also be in a prime location for days out by the coast! Tents, trailer tents, campervans and caravans are welcome to the site. There is a selection of hardstanding pitches and large and small grass pitches. Although none are fully serviced, all have water, 16 amp electric and a private fire pit for your use. Nestled in the heart of the countryside, you can enjoy relaxing in peace and quiet. This is a comfortable and stress-free retreat from the bustle of daily life, where you can toast marshmallows on the campfire, take in the glorious views, and spend days out at the beach. With a wildlife area next to the campsite, you don't need to go far to be immersed in nature. Or explore a little further via the farm walk map, which takes you around the fields and tells you a little more about the site's nature reservation plans. There is a wildlife and picnic area, private and only for campers, along with the apple orchard, accessible to all. Dogs are asked to be kept on the lead in the campsite area, but can run off the lead in the orchard. Campfires are welcome in the fire pits provided, and BBQs are welcome as long as they are raised from the ground. Pineapple Farm Holidays is part of Pineapple Estate. This includes camping, a farm, a shop, a business park and self storage.

Pineapple Farm Holidays is open from 29/03 to 31/10.

A note from the site themselves...

Pineapple Farm Holidays is a friendly and small site. Our family has lived and worked on the farm for just over 100 years. Our grandparents passed down the farm, alongside passing down a love for nature. This is why it's so important for us to protect this piece of Dorset, to encourage biodiversity for soil and wildlife health.

Come and relax in this beautiful rural part of Dorset and find out why we want to help look after it. We're working to make our farm a haven for wildlife, with lots of herb lays for pasture and wildflower spots.

Wonderful site - didn't really want to give it a great review as I don't want too many people knowing about it! Small, well kept, dog friendly and quiet. Some amazing walks locally ending in either a cider farm or a good pub. As Arnie says, 'we'll be back'.

Great site, quite small but with grass and hardstanding pitches. The facilities were spotless with very friendly and obliging staff. Cider farm 15 mins walk up the lane and Hare and Hounds pub 15 mins further on where we had lovely home cooked meal. The site is also 3 miles from Bridport. Will definitely stay again.
