We have several workshops for children in the school summer holidays, these are fun and easy and often have an environmental aspect.

In the past we have had:

The R.S.P.B

Butterfly Coservation

Artist led papier mache workshop.

For adults:

Bee keeping

Nature's Products

Purbeck Art Week exhibition

We acquired the site from Tom Bower in 1993 and have had a policy of continued improvement but trying to maintain the original character of the site.

We have been recommended by Cool Camping, The Rough Guide to Camping and there was an article in the Telegraph magazine last year all recognising our efforts in conservation and re-cycling.

We aim to support local products and sell Fairtrade items in the shop.

We also like to support the arts and have three pieces of sculpture by local artists.

There is also a unique map of Purbeck and Tom’s Field that we commissioned from Tony Kerins, Swanage artist

We promote enterprises such as The Burngate Stone Centre and the Museum in Langton Matravers and sponsor Purbeck Film Festival and Purbeck Art Weeks.

We have been awarded a GOLD in the David Bellamy Conservation Awards for the past 6 years.

• On the terrace outside the shop there are container grown herbs and campers are welcome have a sprig or so to enhance a meal.

• There is a compost for re-cycling uncooked food stuff

• A variety of bird feeders around the site are well used.
