Unique Sustainable Accommodation in Dorset

If you are holidaying in the UK this year, this might be because you are concerned about sustainable tourism. At Chesil Beach Lodge, we’ve been making sustainability a key part of what we offer, both for the bed and breakfast and for our self catering accommodation. This week you can read a little about food in Dorset and how we use local produce wherever possible.

Dorset, being right on the coast, is a great area for fish. We use locally caught fish as far as possible. Almost all fish that swim in UK waters can be found along the Dorset shoreline. Depending on the time of year you may find whiting, turbot, bream, plaice, sole or dab.

We are well off for farms in Dorset too, so if you are holidaying here make sure you go home with some locally produced cheese. We aim to serve local meat, dairy products and bread and use organic products wherever possible.
