In and Around Eype and Bridport

There is just so much to see and do in this beautiful part of Dorset and surrounding area. Places of interest and natural beauty stretch along the Jurassic Coast and inland amongst the truly picturesque countryside.

Forde Abbey and Gardens
(4 miles south east of Chard)
Cricket St. Thomas Wild Life Park
(between Chard and Crewekerne)
Abbotsbury
Sub Tropical Gardens, Tithe Barn, Swannery, West Fleet and Chesil Bank. (Voted best family attraction in Dorset)

Ideally located by the sea, we are popular with those visiting River Cottage which is 20 minutes drive away.
