Local Area Guide:
Sali's Orchard sits in the historic village of Corfe Castle, surrounded by beautiful Dorset countryside. Guests can walk into the village centre in just over 10 minutes to visit traditional pubs, local shops, the famous Corfe Castle ruins, and the Swanage Railway.

Meet The Owners
At Corfe & Purbeck Holidays, we believe holidays should be for the whole family — including every dog. We understand that finding truly welcoming accommodation can be difficult for owners of reactive dogs, rescue dogs, larger breeds, or XL Bullies, which is why inclusivity matters so much to us.
We don’t believe in judging dogs by their breed or background. Instead, we aim to help guests find the right property for their individual needs, whether that’s a secure garden, peaceful surroundings, or access to countryside walks. Our goal is simple: to create relaxing holidays where both owners and dogs feel comfortable, welcome, and able to enjoy Dorset together.

XL Escapes Peace Of Mind Promise
Every business you see on XL Escapes has confirmed to us that they welcome XL Bullies.
Before being listed, we ask the questions we'd want answered ourselves — from real experience living and travelling with XL and reactive dogs. That includes confirming they are happy to host XL Bullies, that their listing details are accurate, and that they've considered their own legal and insurance responsibilities.
We don't assume. We don't guess. We ask — and they confirm.
If anything changes or a business doesn't stand by what they've told us, we take it seriously.
If a business listed on XL Escapes turns you away because of your dog's breed, contact us. We will review it, remove them if necessary, and refund your membership.
