Welcome to Outbuildings
Outbuildings was born out of a passion for the area we live in and a desire to preserve the farm we love
Outbuildings are a collection of luxury, pet friendly, converted outbuildings set on a family farm in the heart of the beautiful West Dorset countryside, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Only 1.5 miles from the historic market town of Bridport and 10 minutes from the famous "Broadchurch'" cliffs at West Bay, the majestic golden cliffs are the gateway to explore the Jurassic Coast, a UNESCO world heritage site. An area full of history, breathtaking walks through incredible scenery and food to tantalise even the most hardened foodie’s soul.
Meet The Team (Family)
We are family-run, but not family overrun. So you can rest assured, you’ll have your privacy and your space.
Our names are Karen and Billy, we relocated from London over 36 years ago to own and run The Greyhound Hotel in Bridport. After selling up and wanting to create a comfortable life and retirement (Billy still works part of the week as a plumber in London) we have spent the last 20 years turning what was a run down old dairy farm into our family home, which has been the heart of our family and friends lives ever since. In 2009 we opened the doors of our home as Broad Road Farm Holiday Lets and began welcoming guests, some of which are still returning every year to this day! Fast forward to today and both of our sons now share the same vision of turning our family home into something beautiful for all to enjoy. After moving away from home at the age of 16, Ed our eldest son (pictured right), has worked as a professional dancer and singer all over the world but now is our Managing Director. George (pictured left) is a very talented carpenter and house builder. He is our go to man as we look to expand our business and create more beautiful stays for you, our guests.
Our Design Mission
People often ask about our design inspiration and who styles Outbuildings.
Our design is not driven by fashion nor trends, but by a love for timeless style, beautiful pieces of furniture, high quality fixtures and fittings with comfort and fine linen a must.
Everything at Outbuildings is by us, our family. We are designers, carpenters, plumbers, seamstress’, gardeners. But, above all, we are just a normal family with an eye for style and a love for design.
