Description

A hidden glamping gem set in 7 acres and surrounded by stunning Dorset countryside.

Bloomfield was purchased by the owners approximately five years ago and has since been run as a thriving family business, with an enviable occupation rate with around a 70% rate of returning business.
Approached via Common Drove, the site comprises just over 7 acres, within which five yurts and a safari tent are strategically placed to give privacy and seclusion within the land.
At the entrance of the site is a gravel parking area where guests leave their cars and check-in at the reception hut and honesty shop, which stocks essential items and local gifts. From here, a path winds its way to the safari tent and each of the yurts. The accommodation is thoughtfully placed to give each privacy and space to enjoy outside.
The five yurts are all named after trees and are capable of sleeping up to four people, plus an additional child in each. The yurts have been laid out beautifully inside and have wood burners and fairy lights. Outside, each yurt has its own private space with kitchen unit and covered eating area.
The safari tent was added last spring and with two bedrooms is capable of sleeping a maximum of five people.
There is a substantial Shower and Toilet block for which the solar panels run the electric, a mains water supply, gas heaters run the hot water and there is a package sewage system.
Since buying the site the owners have created a lake of just under an acre which is stocked with carp, mirror carp, perch and tench, whilst also providing a habitat for a wealth of native flora and fauna. The lake not only adds to the whole ambiance of the site but is also a fun activity for visitors to enjoy. There are also additional smaller ponds for visitors to discover and relax by. There are spaces for children to explore including the bug barn, a rope swing, trampoline, noughts and crosses and winding paths.
