Top Places and Services in Broadwindsor, Dorset

We needed a pit stop to empty our bladders and grab a coffee and drove past this place. Toilets were clean and pleasant to use and we picked up the most delicious home made cake. A bit pricey at £2.50 but my god was it worth it! The best cake I've had in ages! The lady that served us was polite and friendly and we didn't have to wait long at all. Definitely worth a visit if you need a snack and toilet break when on the road

Stopped here for a breakfast and coffee on our way home from a weekend in West Bay.
Lovely little place. Toilets were clean and loo roll available.
Nice to have an inside seating area.
Standard prices, didn't think it was too expensive or anything.
Didn't wait long for two fry ups.
Left with empty plates and full tummies. Friendly staff. Thank you.

This is an amazing site, especially if you are on a long journey and need a break. It's a free park up area you can stay up to 24 hours. Haven't been there when the cafe is open but have heard great feedback.

We travel in a motorhome and usually wild camp. Our motorhome has two 230 Ah batteries powering a 3000 watt inverter. The batteries are charged by two 150 watt solar panels. This allows us to stay off grid more or less permanently (we just have to find water from time to time).
Anyway, this rest area has toilets but no water taps, the toilets are closed at night due to vandalism.
Most of the area for parking is sloping slightly but some spots are very good. We stayed here for two night without a problem.
There are no staying overnight restrictions.
There are doggie walking areas.
At night it is very quiet.
