Hello folks!

Unfortunately, due to the high winds and wet weather forecast, we've had to postpone Alex Akal & His Wolves. The good news is a new date is set! Join us on Saturday, 11th July.

If you have any camping dates that need swapping, drop us an email and we'll sort it out. We're sorry for any inconvenience and can't wait to see you next month. ###

✨Some music you listen to. Some music you feel. ✨

Alex Akal and the Wolves return to Sweet Hill Farm this Saturday for an unforgettable night of live tribal trance, ancient instruments, contemporary beats, and the kind of energy that makes you dance until you forget everything else.

Bar open, your support keeps the magic alive here at our little farm.

Join us for a beautiful evening of live music at Sweet Hill Farm this Bank Holiday Saturday.

We’re so excited to welcome the wonderfully talented Cobra Café, a British-Hungarian acoustic guitar and flute duo bringing an eclectic mix of soulful world music, jazzy rhythms and stunning melodies from across the globe.

Alongside them, Mark & Charlotte will be playing relaxed acoustic covers to finish the evening under the stars.

Warm summer vibes, good food, drinks, sea air and cool tunes. Bring a blanket, bring friends, and settle in for a perfect Saturday evening on the island.

We now have even more of us with full Outdoor First Aid qualifications at Sweet Hill Farm & Chesil Equestrian 🌿

A huge thank you to Rich for holding such a brilliant three-day course with us. Practical, hands-on learning, real-life scenarios and plenty of laughs along the way.

It also reminded us how important the learning environment can be. Training in our relaxed studio space and outside in the fields felt very different to sitting in a classroom all day, and really helped people feel comfortable and engaged.

We’re really proud of the team for giving up three full days to build their confidence, knowledge and outdoor safety skills 🤍

If you own a business and are looking to get your staff trained, or would simply like to learn these vital skills yourself, we’d really recommend training with Rich here at Sweet Hill Farm.

A brilliant course, a relaxed environment and such valuable knowledge to have 🌿

Join Our Team | Café & Guest Experience Assistant

We’re looking for a friendly, capable person to join our small family-run team at Sweet Hill Farm this season.

Part-time seasonal role, usually 12–16 hours per week, with extra hours during busy periods.

This could suit someone at university, on a gap year, or saving before heading off, ideally with previous café, barista or customer service experience.

The role includes a mix of:
• Café service and barista coffee
• Helping behind the bar on music nights
• Welcoming campers and customer-facing duties
• Opening/closing, cleaning and restocking
• General support helping keep things running smoothly

Weekend work is essential, along with availability during school holidays and some late evenings.

We’re looking for someone confident talking to customers, reliable, upbeat and happy to muck in as part of a close-knit team.

A bonus if you enjoy the outdoors, live music and good coffee.

Please message us with a little about yourself and any relevant experience.
