About Halletts Rural Campsite

If you're looking for an almost wild camping adventure, look no further than this family-run, dog-friendly campsite on the Isle of Portland! You can meet the farm animals, discover the stunning Jurassic Coast, and head to nearby beaches like Church Ope Cove (half hour walk away) and Little Beach (a 35 minute walk), both stops along the South West Coast Path. Non-electric grass pitches are available for tents and tourers, so you can return to nature and enjoy the great outdoors. If you're bringing a tent or trailer tent, you can choose from small non-electric grass pitches measuring 2m x 2m or bigger pitches measuring 3m x 3m. And if you're travelling in a campervan or motorhome, there are non-electric grass touring pitches measuring 5m x 3m. Guests are welcome to bring a barbecue or even rent a fire pit, as both are permitted. And don't worry about leaving your furry friends at home - they're welcome on site too!
