About Is
The dairy farm is run by Father and Son team, Paul and Jon, with the milk from the 150 mixed herd going to local cheese makers Barbers. The family have been farming for over 5 generations and have been at Colber Farm for the last 30 years.
In May 2017 Farmstead Glamping was set up and is now run the family. Jon and Hannah live on the farm with their young family and will be your point of contact during your stay.
From the very start our aim was clear; to provide a luxury glamping experience that was respectful of its rural heritage and to do so in an environmentally sustainable manner whilst promoting all things Dorset!
