Stayed here for 4 nights over the Aug Bank Holiday. Stayed in Area 9 which is a large sloping field, you are ok as long as you find a flat bit, we found around the edge is best.
The field has great views. However we understand from others if its windy then it blows through the field like a tornado, lucky for us the weather was great,so no such problem.
The toilets are a bit of a long walk,although always spotless,with plenty of hot water. The beach is a 10 min walk from area 9,with the Anchor Pub almost on the beach.
The pub serves good food although not cheap. The site has a small shop which sells the things you might run out of. Would we go again Yes but would try to get into Area 4 which is more in the centre of the park,a lot of pitches in area 4 have sea views, and is nearer to the beach and toilets.
We have just returned from a glorious week at this site. The site is well managed and beautiful with great views of the Dorest countryside all round - we had sea views and hill views from our caravan window.
The staff were very helpful (on the whole). The site is pretty unlevel so if you are touring with a big unit make sure you have your blocks and chocks at the ready! As other people have mentioned the lane getting to the site is very tight so beware - if two caravans were to meet on that lane it could be tricky.
The toilet block was not very clean when we were there - but it was peak season so I didn't expect much anyway - but general housekeeping around the bins etc. Could have been better. The pool and gym that was available for use at the other site (highlands end) was great and I would recommend it especially if you have kids.
The shop on site is well stocked and the pub by the beach has decent food and great views. The only other grumble we had (nothing to do with the site) was the traffic which was very bad in the week we were there.
Overall I would thoroughly recommend this site for a great holiday - good fishing, great beaches and very quiet and friendly.
I have just returned from a 8 night stay here with my 9 year old and 16 month old. We had a fantastic time, we camped in the area 9 field, large sloped field with wonderful views. Although we were on a slope we were very comfortable during our stay.
The toilet block is a short walk or you can drive further in to the larger block, both were clean. The location of the park is perfect, tucked away but a 10 min stroll through the park to the beach.
The road leading to the site is narrow but there are plenty of pull in's and so we never found this a problem. My son in particular loved the camping field and spent the whole holiday making friends, playing football and cricket every day, we will definitely be returning!
Thought according to their web site we could only book a minimum of three nights, so took off without booking thinking if we get in we get in. If not will have to find another site.
When we arrived the lady in reception was very helpful. We booked for two night in area 9 camping field which is large field without electric with great views across the countryside and sea. Slightly long walk to toilets but they were clean with lots of hot water. Showers were good but water did go a bit hot and cold but once you got used to it is was fine.
The site is in a lovely position with a short walk to the beach and local pub (food is excellent). Lots of cliff walks available from this site.
What a lovely site to visit, nice and peaceful, virtually on a beach, clean and tidy and easy to get to (apart from the lane that is a bit narrow, but nothing insurmountable!)
The pitch we had was a bit sloping but nothing too bad, there are plenty of levelling blocks in boxes around the site. There are also plenty of water points around the site too.
I would thoroughly recommend this site to anyone, in fact we will be visiting here on plenty more occasions.
The shower/toilet block is a little dated but clean enough (although it could do with some 'J Cloths' so that you can clean up after yourself)
Our 17 year old only came camping this weekend as the site has a fishing lake, which isn't huge but it kept him entertained for most of the day!

The site is immaculately clean, the toilets and showers were clean every time we used them. The grounds were tended to every day, this is the cleanest site we have ever been to, we have been touring and camping for 30 years.
The surrounding countryside is fantastic with views to the sea, if you like walking this site is perfect. The local pub sited on the cliff has good ales, food a bit pricey but quite nice.
Nearby is West bay which is lovely with its little harbour. Beer is a quaint little place alright for half a day, Lyme regis is also very nice a little bit busier, overall everywhere is beautiful with thatched cottages.
Have just spent three days, in very inclement weather, staff very friendly and helpful, very beautifully situated site and excellent food at the anchor pub just a stones throw from the site.
The road leading to the site is very narrow and is not helped by touring caravans not adhering to the arrival times stipulated by the site,this is no way a reflection on the site which is well run and well organised.
Showers and toilets very clean,grounds very tidy and well kept,a ideal place for touring West Dorset
The site is in a lovely position, site staff very friendly and helpful. Clean showers, good shop, great pub. Lyme Regis is great and Bridport good for shops. Have been going for 5 years in September, does get very busy at other times. You need to find the right spot to get the sun at the end of the day and some spots have a really nice view. Its a wonderful place for walking.
Just lovely! perfect location. Very clean toilets and showers and plenty of them! always cleaned and checked. The pub on the hill the Anchor has lovely food and is a great place to watch the sunset but does get busy so get your seat out side on the hil early. Beautiful costal walks over the cliffs.
One caution would be the little lane on the way in, watch out for on coming traffic.
We loved this site it had a real festival feel to it which my two daughters 12 & 13 loved. Great to be near beach and views stunning. The pub by the beach did good food and overall was very pleased and will definitely visit again. Washing and showering facilitiies were basic but adequate and field 9 which we were in was huge and enough room for everyone to have a good sized pitch and maintain privacy. Shop was basic but good range.

A lovely site in a lovely location, perfect for coastal walks and day trips in the local area.
We arrived and were allowed to pitch straight away. We were with friends but managed to find 2 pitches together. Slight slope but nothing too much to worry about. Pitches quite close together on area 4, plenty of room to sit out, for tables and chairs but, not loads of room for kids to play. There is a separate area but is away from the camping area. Shower block is lovely, different types of shower rooms to cater for individuals or families. Was cleaned regularly, slightly muddy floors at times but the wet weather was to blame, not the staff! Mops were available to use at all times. Good shop, sold papers and essentials, reasonable prices. Good pub down by the seafront, gets busy though! Nice beach, the shingle stream kept the kids occupied for ages!
Only downside was the bad weather days! Gets very windy, area 4 ok but don't go to area 9! Sunny days were lovely though! All in all, a good site, very friendly and helpful staff, will return!
We stayed here for a few days, when the site was fairly full.
The scenery is amazing! We were in Area 9 - the overflow camping field - and had panoramic views. It is a sloping field and in parts was very steep, but we picked a fairly level part.
The toilet block is a fairly long walk (particularly for small children who go to the toilet often!). The showers were not very clean - it's a shame enough people don't use the mop and brush provided! This was my one criticism of the site - a block in Area 9 would make all the difference.
The site itself could get very windy and you do need to pick a spot with care. We were amazed that not all the tents had their guy lines pegged out - particularly when you can see how tents get blown away. However there were sheltered spots.
The other main problem with small children is that people are driving past all the time, often to go to the shower block. If you camp near to the edge of the field, this would be less of a problem.
The shop was fine - lots of little bits and pieces - fine for biscuits, milk and the papers.
The stony beach was amazing - a couple of minutes from the tent. We walked up the hills and were rewarded by wonderful views. The Anchor pub was lovely - but visit early - it gets very busy!
We had a really relaxing break and will definitely return in the future, particularly good with larger groups as the pitches are not defined.
The summaries of the previous reviews sum up the site well.
Excellent location. Well laid out and managed. Pitches were well laid out and well tended. Most reasonably level and many somewhat sheltered. Children play park a little sparse, but then there is the beech very close which is a big draw. Toilet blocks are a bit dated but generally clean. Overall, would return.
Just returned from 2 nights at the Golden Cap, lovely lovely site! We took our boys aged 8 and 6, we had no wind, was worried after reading the reviews but it was lovely if anything we were camping in a sheltered area amongst trees. Site was clean, toilets were clean, showers were clean and had been cleaned every day I know cos I slipped on the newly mopped floor! Staff helpful and polite, beach lovely and anchor pub just right, small park on site that kept the kids entertained when we needed, would definitely return!
This is one of our favourite sites, visited many times over the years I have always found the staff very helpful and friendly, surprised at the amount of reviews that haven't. The toilet blocks can be a bit dirty at high season, and the showers could be upgraded. The on site shop has all you need and stays open till 9pm in high season, you have the anchor pub just at the beach, which is only 5 min walk from site, really good pub grub at a reasonable price The beach is shingle, a great place for fossil hunting, the best to be found at the waters edge, 'caution' do not hammer at the cliffs for fossils as this can be very dangerous, there are signs on the beach that say no dogs but never had a problem, as long as you pick up mess, You can walk to west bay from site and charmouth and you can use sister site facilities at highlands end for a small fee A great site to visit and will keep on doing so.

Stayed here for 4 nights over the Aug Bank Holiday. Stayed in Area 9 which is a large sloping field, you are ok as long as you find a flat bit, we found around the edge is best.
