Rudge Farm Festival – A Community Celebration

Rudge Farm Festival – A Community Celebration

A Party with Purpose

At Rudge Farm, we love nothing more than a good party—and when it’s in aid of something special, it feels even better. This summer, we had the absolute joy of hosting our local school’s end-of-year leavers’ party. What started as a simple send-off quickly turned into a full-blown festival, complete with all the trimmings.

Turning a Field into a Festival

One of our livestock fields was transformed into a mini Glastonbury, equipped with:

It was the perfect way to bring families and friends together outdoors, soaking up those last golden days of summer.

Food, Music & Magic

The food was nothing short of amazing—served up by The Roaming Fox, from the wonderful Fox family. Our beautiful Chinese-inspired marquees came courtesy of Tattle Farm Tents, and music filled the air thanks to the fantastic Thunderwing DJs, who kept spirits high all day long.

Glitter, Glam & Great Spirits

Of course, no festival is complete without glitter and glam. You’ll spot in the photos that we grown-ups weren’t shy of joining in—festival face gems, temporary tattoos, funky hats, and flamboyant outfits were the order of the day. Even when the rain arrived later in the evening, it did nothing to dampen the mood. Instead, pyjamas came out early, and the children settled into a magical camp-out under the canvas, creating memories that will stay with them for years to come.

The Perfect Summer Send-Off

What a wonderful end to the school year—and to the summer itself. We’re so proud Rudge Farm could provide the space for such a heartwarming celebration of community spirit. We hope you enjoy the photos as much as we enjoyed the day itself.

What Our Guests Say...

Family birthday weekend - Fantastic place to stay. Beautiful views, gorgeous spacious cottages and very modern and clean. Couldn't ask for a better place to stay. Absolutely perfect. Very well equipped with everything you need. Would definitely recommend.

Sarah, Cardiff

Great location to explore West Dorset - We had a really lovely stay at Rudge Farm. As our first visit to West Dorset it was an ideal location to explore the coastline. The kids really enjoyed the activities on site too including the boating on the lake, the games room and tennis court. The local farm shop was fab and did lovely fresh bread, yummy cheese, and veg. Thanks for a great holiday and we would definitely recommend it to other people.

Caroline, Brighton

Linda, Shropshire

Great family fun - We had a great family trip with 14 of us sharing three adjacent cottages to celebrate a family birthday. Whilst we were only there for two nights, the facilities on site were great and kept the three children entertained and busy.

Simon, Cambridge

My family has stayed here many times including two visits this year. The cottages are very nice and have everything you need. They are user friendly and you don't feel continuous panic if you have young children there! The grounds and setting are completely stunning. My family and I lay in the garden outside our cottage and listened to the sound of the birds wings whirring through the air as they sped around the buildings. We are talking seriously peaceful!
