You are here: Accommodation > Feather Down - East Shilvinghampton Farm
East Shilvinghampton is less than 10 minutes from dramatic Chesil Beach and only 15 minutes from the golden sand of Weymouth Beach, and offers panoramic views across the Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. East Shilvinghampton's luxury camping tents are close to the farmyard, with cows, goats, pigs, hens and ducks just a toddle away.
One of the highlights of a glamping Dorset family holiday at East Shilvinghampton farm is all the animals there are for you and your children to meet. Why not take the farm tour, and get to know to beef suckler cows and calves and pedigree limousin cows? Some real personalities include Labradors Ora and Lizzie, pet goat Trit-Trot and her kids, Leonard the farm cat (who loves visiting tents), the ducks Pit, Pat and Paddle, Henry's pigs, Chase the horse, and Pippin the pony belonging to Martin and Joby's daughters Georgina and Annabel. Also making their homes nearby are deer, hares and owls, so keep a close eye out for them. There's always something going on at East Shilvinghampton!
What's more, you can enjoy a soak in a jacuzzi! The Jacuzzi can be booked for private hire, and is sure to make your already relaxing holiday even more restorative. It features hydrotherapy jets, beloved by athletes, which massage aching muscles and soothe body and mind. The Jacuzzi benefits from a private location, so you can forget the outside world and let yourself be carried off to a place of true relaxation.
Previous guests have loved the setting of the tents as the children can play and roam freely and safely within sight and earshot of parents. A great place to explore is the Drovers trail, which has a small copse at the end of it for den building.
