Vurlands Animal Farm and The Eggcup

Call Directions Website

Vurlands Animal Farm and The Eggcup We are situated on the coast road B3157 between bridport and abbotsbury. We are a family run Animal Farm.
(205)

There are many things to do from seeing all the wonderful varieties of animals, enjoying the beautiful views across the picturesque Bride Valley or finding your way through our willow maze. Theres plenty for all age ranges including a play area for the children with adjacent seating for the adults to sit down and relax. You can also stop off and enjoy delicious homecooked lunches and homemade cream teas at our established tearooms. Serving lunches from 11am - 2.30pm and homemade cream teas all day. The animal farm is very much based outside, so when weather conditions are bad the farm is unlikely to be open. We are wheelchair friendly but unfortunately we cannot allow dogs in (unless guide dogs) as they may upset the animals.

Winter Opening within in The Eggcup

We are having to bring our winter hours forward a bit within The Eggcup.

This means we will be closed on Mondays and Tuesdays for dining in.

Whilst the Animal Farm is still open on Tuesdays the kitchen will remain open for takeaways for the time being.
