With extensive views of the English Channel and Lyme Bay, direct access to the South West Coast Path and a dog-friendly Jurassic Coast beach within five minutes’ walk, it’s three cheers for Eype Beach Holiday Park. And this quiet Dorset seaside site has much more going for it too.
Covering four-and-a-half acres of gently sloping hillside, the park has plenty to make family holidays remarkably easy. No need to panic if you run out of foodie supplies, as there’s a small shop on site for the basics, as well as a tea garden where you can enjoy morning coffees or a Dorset cream tea while the kids stay afloat on ice creams and snacks.
All guests are welcome to use the facilities at neighbouring Highlands End Holiday Park, just five minutes’ drive or 15 minutes’ walk. There you can keep younger children occupied at The Little Fire Station Soft Play, or challenge teens to rounds on the 18-hole foot golf course overlooking the sea (charges apply).
Enjoy family dips on the pool at Highlands End Leisure Club – and if you fancy some downtime all to yourself, book a leisurely session in the sauna or steam room (again for an extra charge), sneak in a coffee at Costa or enjoy a beer in Martin’s Bar and Restaurant – where there’s a menu of light bites, classic pub dishes, kids’ favourites and even treats for the dog.

Local attractions
Pebbly Eype Beach (five minutes’ stroll) welcomes dogs all year round and you can let the kids loose with buckets and spades to go rock pooling or ferreting for fossils. This peaceful beach sits on the spectacular Jurassic Coast, famous for its fossils, craggy coastlines and beautiful beaches.
Wherever you walk along this coastline, the sweeping curves of Lyme Bay are your stunning backdrop. Coastal paths run over the clifftops to Thorncombe Beacon (20 minutes’ walk), Seatown and the landmark Golden Cap (both 50 minutes) to the west, or to West Bay (25 minutes) and the cutesy village of Burton Bradstock (an hour) to the east.
Backed by soaring cliffs, West Bay (10 minutes’ drive) has a pretty fishing harbour to have a mooch around, while Weymouth (35 minutes) has fine Georgian architecture, sand sculptures to enchant the kids and plenty of harbour-side pubs to keep adults happy. And surely you can spare one day away from this gorgeous coastline to indulge the kids on the go-karts, chute slides and carousels at Crealy Theme Park and Resort (55 minutes)?
