Family holidays in Dorset
School Holidays
From half-term holidays to summer staycations and even family-friendly Christmas breaks, our seasonal family breaks promise activities aplenty.
May Half Term Breaks
Magical May Half Term
Enjoy half term on the Dorset coast, where sunny days beckon. From classic lawn games and mocktail making to escape rooms and hands-on science experiments, there is something for everyone. Venture just a stone's throw away and you'll find yourself amidst a treasure trove of attractions. The cygnets will be hatching at neighbouring Abbotsbury Swannery and you can experience the natural wonders of Lulworth Cove and iconic Durdle Door ahead of the summer season.
Summer Holiday Breaks
Summer of Fun
Experience the ultimate summer escape at Moonfleet Manor, with a myriad of facilities and activities on-site - terraces, mini golf, skittles, escape rooms, tennis and swimming - and lots to see and do in the local area. Our team will also be on hand to share their insider tips on the best beaches, local attractions and crabbing spots. As always, parents can also look forward to some down time with 90 minutes of complimentary childcare per night's stay!
October Half Term Breaks
October Spook-tacular
As autumn sets in, October is an ideal time to head to Dorset. Explore the scenic coastline before returning to a cosy spot beside the fireplace for hot chocolate.
