The cry of gulls and the distant rumble of waves drift up from the Jurassic Coast as you pitch beneath the shadow of Golden Cap itself – the highest point on England's south coast. This clifftop site occupies one of Dorset's most dramatic positions, where ochre sandstone cliffs plunge into glittering sea and coastal footpaths thread through National Trust countryside.
Perfect for walkers tackling the South West Coast Path and families seeking a classic seaside camping holiday, Golden Cap Holiday Park welcomes tents, campervans and caravans throughout the year. The nearby village of Seatown sits at the cliff base, while Charmouth's fossil beaches and Lyme Regis's harbour charm lie within easy reach along this spectacular coastline.
Facilities keep things straightforward with toilets and showers serving the pitches. Check the campfire policy when you arrive if you're hoping for evening flames. The real draw here is position: you're camping in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty where sunset views stretch across Lyme Bay and morning walks begin right from your tent door. It's unpretentious coastal camping with million-pound vistas.
