Woodland Walk

Walk around the farm through woods, streams and enjoy views across the valley

 
 

Our woodland walk

The woodland walks at Rudge Farm Cottages weave through 17 acres of enchanting meadows and ancient woodland, where the gentle bleats of our grazing Valais sheep echo across the fields. Meandering paths and bridges follow the course of clear streams, tumbling over mossy rocks into babbling brooks and cascading waterfalls. In spring, the woodland floor is a vibrant tapestry of wild garlic and bluebells, their delicate scents mingling in the fresh country air. The landscape is alive with nature—fluttering butterflies, darting kingfishers, and the occasional glimpse of a deer slipping silently between the trees—offering a peaceful retreat for those who wander its tranquil trails.

What Our Guests Say...

We stayed in 'Pigsty Cottage'. So beautiful, we had our own little veranda & stunning views overlooking the lakes & surrounding countryside. A short drive to Chesil Beach. The cottage is well equipped & comfortable. A jug of milk & a selection of tea & coffee was a lovely welcome!

Maryann, Kent

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.

Perfect country retreat - First class comfortable accommodation in the Gardeners Cottage. Set in the beautiful Dorset countryside, we couldn't have wished for more. No hesitation in recommending Rudge Farm to my family and friends.

By far the best place we have stayed. Lovely warm welcome, cottages delightful and scenery stunning!

Judith and Steve, Cambridgeshire

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!
