Bradle Farmhouse

Bed & Breakfast

Welcome

Bradle Farmhouse is a classic manor farmhouse offering bed & breakfast in a tranquil and beautiful valley situated 3 miles west of Corfe Castle, 2 miles from the Jurassic Coast at Kimmeridge and 5 miles south of the market town of Wareham known as the gateway to the Isle of Purbeck.

Located in the heart of the Purbeck Hills, the farmhouse has stunning views across open fields to Corfe Castle. The original farmhouse is mentioned in the Doomsday Book but was destroyed by fire in the early 1800’s. The present house was built in 1862 of local Purbeck stone as a manor house for a member of Lord Eldon’s family before becoming the farmhouse in the early 1900’s.

Our Breakfast

Breakfast is very much a local home produced feast!

The bacon, sausages and ham all come from the farm butchery which my son Mark runs. Eggs come from our chickens which have a large paddock at the back of the house, and all the jams and marmalades are home-made here at Bradle.

We strive to support other local suppliers so you will find Dorset Cereal, Dorset Tea and Moores Biscuits all available.

For those wishing for a vegetarian option we have plenty to offer as well.

“What a great little place my lady found. Couldn't fault anything. Warmly greeted, by the host Gillian, with a nice cuppa tea and a biscuit on arrival. Our room was fully equipped with everything you could possibly need,and more, for a short break. Lovely location to explore the beautiful Isle of Purbeck.

Breakfast was delicious and plenty of it, full of the produce directly from the farm. Homemade conserves too, which were absolutely yummy. One of the best, if not the best, B&Bs we have ever had the pleasure of staying in. Throughly recommend. Thank you Gillian for a wonderful couple of days in your amazing place xx”

“We had a wonderful Halloween stay at Bradle Farmhouse, enjoying walks to Corfe Castle, looking for fossils at Kimmeridge Bay, and enjoying the many cafes and restaurants the area has to offer. Bradle Farmhouse is so welcoming; you are invited to explore the farm, meet the people living and working there, and see the animals.Our daughter enjoyed meeting the calves!

Gillian helped us when we flooded our walking boots and provided a wonderful breakfast and haven of a bedroom. We will return!”
