A rare lifestyle/home and income /smallholding/equestrian/redevelopment opportunity.
A highly individual home with extensive land, outbuildings including campsite/outdoor facilities in a stunning country setting. EPC Band E.
Old Bidlake Farm - Old Bidlake Farm is a truly unique and very special change of lifestyle – home and income – potential small holding or for equestrian – or redevelopment opportunity. For some buyers - think Ben Fogle's Channel 5 show Make a New Life In The Country.
It comprises a very spacious detached bungalow with extensive land, numerous outbuildings and bespoke campsite/outdoor facilities in a stunning country setting within the beautiful Marshwood Vale.
The Property - A detached bungalow of non traditional Woolaway construction built in 1973 with timber clad elevations. The accommodation is very spacious and character style features include wood block flooring and cottage doors. There is oil fired central heating, UPVC sealed unit windows/doors, fitted kitchen with built in appliances and modern bathroom with spa bath and modern shower room.
Extending to:
Reception hall, living room, conservatory, lobby and side hall, kitchen/dining room, bedroom with ensuite bathroom, double aspect second bedroom with dressing room area, third bedroom, shower room.
The Campsite - Under the current ownership since 2010, a wonderful bespoke camping/glamping site has been created.
The current owners ran their business with work/life balance as a priority. It operated from April to October and generated an excellent revenue with high repeat business. The campsite facilities and land now provide excellent opportunity, subject to planning, for various business uses.

Smallholding/Equestrian Potential - Old Bidlake Farm also offers excellent potential to create a smallholding or for equestrian use etc.
Redevelopment Potential - Subject to planning, there is excellent potential for the demolition of the existing bungalow and the building of a new dwelling.
Planning History - The property was subject to an agricultural tie but planning permission was passed in November 2022 for a Certificate of Lawful Use which allows for persons not employed in agriculture to lawfully occupy the property without enforcement (application number P/CLE/2020/04936).
Outside - Old Bidlake Farm is set well back off the main Marshwood Vale Lane and approached over a long unmade track (right of way) leading to its own large parking area and a whole number of buildings:
•Potting shed
•Substantial barn comprising barn, double garage and car port
•Two outside wc’s
•Chemical disposal point
•Two shower rooms
•Covered area
•Kitchen
•Raining day room
There are formal gardens, large orchard and a large field with field shelter and wild flower meadow.
A public footpath crosses part of the land.
Situation - Old Bidlake Farm occupies a very peaceful semi rural location in the hamlet of Broadoak within the beautiful Marshwood Vale. It backs on to open countryside with fantastic views over the surrounding countryside and hills. The immediate locality is designated as being on of Outstanding Natural Beauty and there is a whole network of public footpaths with many attractive walking opportunities. Although occupying a country position, it is far from isolated, being within only 10 minutes drive from the thriving and historic market town of Bridport which offers an excellent range of shopping, business and leisure facilities.
The pretty town of Beaminster and coastal resort of Lyme Regis are both within easy driving distance. The world heritage Jurassic Coast is also very nearby with access at West Bay with its picturesque harbour and bathing beaches.
Services - Mains electricity and water. Septic tank drainage.
Viewings - Strictly by appointment with Stags Bridport.
Directions - From Stags office in South Street, proceed to the town hall and turn left into West Street. At the second mini roundabout turn right signed Salwayash and Broadwindsor. On reaching the cross roads at Dottery, turn left signed Broadoak and after 0.9 miles, turn right on to the unmade track (signed Old Bidlake Farm) and the property is found at the far end.
