Accommodations
Burnbake’s flexible pitch-only campsite welcomes those seeking a classic tenting experience.

Families can also pre-book luxury forest lodges, available throughout the year and set among towering pines.

Campsite bookings are now open, and guests can choose between spontaneous camping or pre-booked stays in lodges, safari tents or bell tents. All options are dog friendly, making it easy to plan a break that suits both your schedule and outdoor style.

Wildlife and Outdoor Play
Children can be children here, enjoying a sense of freedom and good old-fashioned play, beavering by the stream, hiding in the woods and foraging for forest finds. Rabbits, birds, butterflies and even Sika deer share the woodland, creating memorable moments for all ages.

Historic Corfe Castle lies a short drive away, while nearby heathlands and nature reserves invite gentle rambles and wildlife watching.
