There is never a bad time to visit and stay with us in Beaminster, but we thought we would highlight a few summer weekends that might be especially appealing if you enjoy pairing your stay with events happening locally.
Saturday 27th of June to Sunday 5th July - Vibrant town of Beaminster plays host to the annual Beaminster Festival of music, theatre, literature and art.
Sunday 2nd August - Buckham Fair returns with its much loved mix of livestock, countryside tradition and community spirit, founded by Martin Clunes.
Thursday 27th August - The Melplash Show, a celebration of local farming families, heritage and rural life.
Sunday 23rd August - The Bridport Torchlight Procession, from Bridport down to West Bay, thousands of lit fire torches making their way to the coast.
Saturday 5th September - Bridport Hat Festival, a unique event that fills the town with colour and creativity in a way few places could.

We’re so grateful for everyone that comes and supports Buckham Fair.
This year, again, @pardoessolicitors are generously sponsoring Dog of the Day. This is a glorious Class for which you can enter your Dog, ringside on the day.
Pardoes are a truly valued friend of Buckham Fair, and have throughout the years, helped us to raise funds for our many charitable causes.
Thank you Pardoes.
