  • Quiet family-run Dorset park 20 minutes’ walk from Lyme Regis
  • Charmouth 10 minutes’ drive; Beer 20 minutes; Chesil Beach 50 minutes
  • On-site shop; pop-up dining in summer; pub five minutes’ walk
Looking for a non-party place? Set in peaceful countryside on the county lines between Devon and Dorset, Hook Farm Campsite in Uplyme should be your first pick. This family-run holiday park is a quiet place designed for small family groups, couples and solo travellers only. Not only that, but it's in pole position for exploring the Jurassic Coast and the pretty seaside town of Lyme Regis (20 minutes’ walk away). Once you’ve settled in, owners John and Jacky and their close-knit team at reception are happy to advise on sightseeing and local walks, or provide information on local events and attractions. The adjacent on-site shop is stocked with camping essentials, basic foods and barbecue bits, as well as sweets and snacks to keep the kids going. The staples store in Uplyme, 10 minutes’ walk away, should have anything you can’t find in the site shop, and there’s also a pub five minutes' walk away serving home-cooked food and real ales. For food fanatics, pop-up food trucks stop by Hook Farm Campsite in high season, and it’s also close to River Cottage (35 minutes’ drive, famed as the restaurant of TV chef Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall), as well as an assortment of pubs and restaurants showcasing local food and drinks. The campsite is situated within a dark-skies area, so you might get lucky weatherwise and observe star-studded night skies from the comfort of your pitch.

What customers say

Great valley location, friendly staff, and clean facilities. Guests love the quiet vibe, easy walk to Lyme Regis, and spacious, private pitches with nice views. Minor points: 20p shower fee, spotty Wi-Fi. Perfect for a relaxing trip!

Liked Exceptionally clean, quiet and well looked after.

Disliked The ground - you NEED rock pegs and which we had and we still managed to bend some that won’t be usable again.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for the great review, the ground is exceptionally hard due to the very dry summer. We hope to see you again soon.

Fantastic campsite, just need a couple of tweaks to for 10/10

 Dan S. 2 reviews

Powered grass tent campsite (large)

Liked Shower block, nice private pitches, nice location, nice walks for the dog, well equipped shop, decent WiFi

Disliked Electric hook up too far from pitch (£50 for a longer lead - no thank you), 20p for the is reasonable, but could have been told before we arrived (we had no cash initially)

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thanks for your review and glad to hear you would visit us again. We do say on all our booking platforms that a minimum 20m cable length is required and that there is a 20p charge for the showers. We always have a plentiful supply of these and they can be purchased with a card.

Local attractions

Dedicated star-gazers can stroll up to Trinity Hill Nature Reserve (45 minutes’ walk), awarded Dark Sky Discovery Site status thanks to its lack of light pollution. Hook Farm is also a handy base camp for walkers in the East Devon Natural Landscape (direct from site), and has ready access to the South West Coast Path (half an hour), while following the East Devon Way (five minutes) gives you a handy riverside shortcut down to the sea. Historic Lyme Regis (five minutes’ drive) is known for the fossils and ammonites found on its sands, and is gateway to the dramatic seascapes of the Jurassic Coast. You can hunt for more ancient treasures on the beach at Charmouth (10 minutes), and wander along the pebble spit at Chesil Beach (50 minutes). The lively (and lovely) seaside town of Beer (20 minutes) has a photogenic fishing harbour and several contemporary art galleries to mooch around, and if the kids are with you, you’ll probably end up at The Donkey Sanctuary (also 20 minutes), where you can feed and cuddle rescue donkeys.
