Welcome to Flowerdew Farm
A magical, eco-friendly alpaca and goat 2 -acre smallholding, camping and glamping site, care and social farm, tucked away in the heart of the Bride Valley, on West Dorset’s breathtaking Jurassic Coast.
More than just a place to stay, Flowerdew is a vibrant hub of community, sustainability, creativity, and wellness nestled within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
At Flowerdew, we believe in the healing power of nature and connection — to ourselves, to others, and to animals. Also referred to as animal wellbeing, animal therapy, and animal-assisted interventions.
Whether you're looking for a quiet escape or an immersive farm experience, our off-grid haven offers the perfect space to slow down, rest, play, and reconnect.
What do we offer?
Unique stays, animal, nature, and wellbeing experiences. Care and social farming.
