Martin’s Bar and Restaurant

This place is not usually open now.

Open to guests of all West Dorset Leisure Holidays Parks, as well as local residents, Martin’s Bar & Restaurant at Highlands End Holiday Park (DT6 6AR)  is a spacious and modern venue offering great service and a locally-sourced homecooked menu.

Located on the hilltop, with great views over Bridport and the West Dorset countryside, Martin’s Bar and Restaurant is a truly unique bar & restaurant, due to its fascinating collection of fire engine memorabilia. Exhibits on display range from historic firefighter helmets and other curios, to a magnificently restored 1936 Leyland fire engine and a 1902 Merryweather horse-drawn steam engine.

There is also the fantastic “Little Fire Station Soft Play” for children (charges apply). Martin’s Bar & Restaurant welcomes well behaved dogs in allocated areas of the building, a beer garden and water bowls. There are dog-free zones too.

The chefs love creating delicious dishes, including some family favourites and seasonal daily specials using a whole range of local produce – in fact we use over 20 local suppliers including Palmer’s Brewery, Purbeck Ice Cream, local fishmongers and Frampton’s Butchers.
