The crunch of golden Jurassic Coast shingle mingles with the cries of gulls as you wake to sea views stretching across Lyme Bay from this cliffside site. Eype House Caravan Park occupies an enviable position above West Bay, where fossil-rich beaches and dramatic sandstone cliffs draw walkers and beachcombers to one of Dorset's most spectacular stretches of coastline.
Tent campers, caravanners and motorhomers are all welcome at this year-round site, making it a dependable base whatever the season. The location puts you within striking distance of the South West Coast Path, charming harbourside villages, and the fossil hunting grounds that have made this World Heritage Coast famous. Families and couples seeking coastal access without the crowds of busier resorts will appreciate the more peaceful setting.
Facilities are straightforward—toilets and showers keep things simple and functional. Campfires may be permitted, but you'll need to check the current policy when you arrive. The real draw here is that sweeping coastal panorama and the sense of space that comes with a cliffside pitch, where the rhythm of the waves sets the pace for your stay.
