General
- Family-run site 12 miles from the Jurrassic Coast and Lyme Regis
- Tearoom on site serving cream teas, meals and Sunday roasts
- Well-maintained amenities including heated shower block
As one knows, a cream tea is an absolute must when holidaying in Dorset. So how fortuitous is Lyme Regis's Oathill Farm Holiday and Touring Park's addition of Lucy's Tearoom right on site, in an eighteenth century farmhouse with traditional oak beams, open log fires and landscaped lawns: you might reckon a cream tea here is worth the trip alone.
Teas are served to one's table indoors or in the country house tea garden, and you can also nosh on homemade farmhouse food served all day, including cooked breakfasts and Sunday roasts. If you need to walk it all off, many human- and dog-friendly walks start straight from the site along public footpaths and a network of country lanes, over bridges and rivers to local beauty spots Forde Abbey House and Gardens, Pilsdon Pen and Wayford Woods.
The family crew at Oathill have been running things in a relaxed, friendly and well-kept manner for years at their neatly landscaped site, set over ten acres of Dorset countryside, landscaped ponds and separate designated recreational and dog walking areas all providing a peaceful environment for guests.
The team prides itself on the standard of its facilities and amenities: there's a heated toilet and shower block, a washing-up area, a washer and a dryer. A small shop sells basic bits as well as camping essentials.

Many sites set a maximum occupancy of 6/8 people per pitch, so try breaking your booking down into smaller groups to generate more results. For example, if you’re a group of 10, enter 5 people in your initial search and then book 2 pitches.
However, where the pitch or accommodation occupancy allows it, you can now make a booking for up to 30 adults and 30 children on one pitch.
To book multiple pitches or accommodation, use the 'Special requests' box on the booking page to ask to be sited together. Complete the booking form for the first booking (you can add a password and save your card so that we remember your details). Then click "Make another booking like this" at the top of the confirmation page to make the next booking.

From the north (A303), exit onto the A356 to Crewkerne. At Crewkerne high street, the road splits left and right: take the right and then an immediate left on the sharp bend (B3165 Hermitage Street signposted to Lyme Regis).
If you miss this turning, follow the road around to the right up past the chip shop and then turn right, back down to the high street. Turn right into the high street and try again.
Do not follow a satnav route out of Crewkerne. We are on the Lyme Regis road on the left after 4.5 miles, just after the village of Clapton.
Local attractions
Many Dorset and Devon sights and activities are easily accessible from Oathill Farm Holiday and Touring Park, like the fossil-filled beaches of Lyme Regis and Charmouth about 20 minutes away, and the market towns of Dorchester, Taunton and Yeovil and surrounding villages steeped with local history, pubs and eateries within easy reach.
Crewkerne and its swimming pool, horse riding activities and the local museum is also nearby; several golf courses are close by too and the fishing and birdwatching of Chard Reservoir is just over the hill. If you do like to be beside the seaside, many resorts with activities and attractions for all ages are within easy driving distance.
