  • Family-run site a mile from the Jurassic Coast
  • Footpath leading to the South West Coast Path
  • Shop next door and pubs within walking distance
Guests return season after season to serene Osmington Mills Corner Campsite in its Dorset coast setting just outside the village of Osmington: it's been family run for over 60 years and has Dorset site stays down pat. Spacious pitches, room for kids to run around, and scenic views towards Weymouth four miles away are the secrets of its success, along with a peaceful rural vibe, restaurants nearby, and the site's closeness to the sea, a mile from the beaches of the Jurassic Coast. You can easily access the region's spectacular walks from here too, as a footpath leads from the site to the coast to connect with the South West Coast Path. (Or if that's a no thanks to the walk, a bus stop is just outside the site with services running to Weymouth.) Osmington has toilets, showers, a washing-up area and the means for ice pack freezing and gadget charging. A shop is next door to the site, and pubs and restaurants are within walking distance.

Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Choosing your pitch, space around you and found a private area not overlooked. Close proximity to the coast path, although I saw no signs for it from the park

Disliked: The showers, they sprinkled hot water, wouldn't of been able to wash hair with them. All sinks had only cold water.

Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Great big area, toilet and showers great,
Hostams amazing and friendly

Disliked: Grass a bit too long to put a tent up and have a firepit but we managed it. Busy road near by and can hear the noise of traffic

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for you're kind comments ,we will be able to cut the grass again shortly when less busy.

Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Location, that's about it.

Disliked: Showers were dirty, dated and in need of an urgent refurbishment. No hot water to wash up or to wash your hands. I understand the price is low, but you need to get the basics right and invest in a potential great campsite in a great location.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: We are sorry you did not like our site.The showers are cleaned several times each day,and on cleaning them during you're stay I did not once find them in a dirty condition.

Local attractions

Get out onto the South West Coast Path close to the site, try your hand at fishing for Dorset mackerel, canter along the coast on horseback, take a boat out, or up the ante with some kayaking or zorbing… all available nearby. Weymouth, four miles away, has been a famed Dorset seaside spot since Georgian times and these days has stacks to do such as sailing and surfing (several surf schools are around if you're just starting out), a long sandy beach and a Sea Life Centre, miniature railway and RSPB reserve above the town at Lodmoor Country Park. More famed Dorset days can be had with fossil hunting on Chesil Beach, six miles away, and taking in the sight of spectacular Durdle Door at Lulworth Cove, within seven miles of the site. You could also chatter with the inhabitants of Monkey World, see the swans at the award-winning Abbotsbury Subtropical Gardens, or steam along to the Tank Museum at Bovington, all reachable within 10 miles.
