The smell of salt air drifts up from Chesil Beach, just a short stroll from these tucked-away chalets and camping pods on the Dorset coast.

This is a good shout for couples or small families who want proper walls and a roof but still that camping-holiday feel — you're staying in either chalets or pods rather than pitching your own tent. Burton Bradstock sits on the edge of the Jurassic Coast, with golden cliffs, fossil beaches and the South West Coast Path practically on your doorstep. Dogs are welcome by arrangement, so worth asking when you book if you're bringing a four-legged friend along.

Facilities aren't specified in detail, so it's worth checking what's provided in your particular pod or chalet when you enquire. Campfires are a maybe — ask when you arrive. The vibe here feels relaxed and low-key, the sort of place where you wake up, smell the sea, and spend your days walking the coast or simply reading with the door open.
