While you are enjoying your stay with us at Dorset Farm there are lots of things you can do without having to get into the car and drive miles and miles.
We can offer walking - we have several farm walks we can give you, fishing, painting and sketching, photography, cycling, just sitting and dreaming, bird watching, reading and more.
We have our own hide which you are free to use to perhaps spot deer, squirrels, birds, foxes and lots more. We have books to help identify that elusive butterfly
Spend a day with a photographer.
Local photographer Peter Crumpler will meet you at Dorset Farm
and will guide you on a memorable day's photographic shooting. This is particularly suitable for the beginner or those wishing to improve their skills. We can visit a wildlife sanctuary and meet otters, owls, deer and a wide variety of ducks and peacocks close up. We can also visit the coast, historical locations or the woodlands according to your preferences. Later in the day we can enhance the photographs taken on our expedition using our computer so you have a souvenir of everything we have done saved onto cd or dvd. The organisation of the day is very flexible and is tailor-made to your ideas and wishes. Prices start from as little as £125 per family for a full day. A camera can be provided or of course you can use your own.
Have a painting day with an artist
What better way to improve your painting skills -at whatever level with local artist. Your artist will join you after breakfast and together you will plan the day - discussing what, where and how you are going to work. If the weather is inclement we can still use indoor facilities to produce something to be proud of which you can take home and hang on the wall at the end of your stay. Please use the enquiry form to request further details of either activities.

We have a frontage of about a kilometre along the River Tamar which makes for a perfect day’s fishing. We can arrange licences for you if you wish and show you best spots to enjoy your sport.
Play Golf
There are a number of good golf courses locally so don’t forget to bring your clubs with you.
