  • CAMC-only Dorset caravan site on the edge of Winfrith Newburgh village
  • The Jurassic Coast 10 minutes’ drive and Corfe Castle 20 minutes
  • Dog-friendly pitches; two pubs and a farm shop half an hour’s walk
Open only to members of the Caravan and Motorhome Club, Little Birch Certificated Location is a well-maintained and family-run site on the edge of the rural village of Winfrith Newburgh in Dorset. All the pitches on this dog-friendly site come with electric hook-ups, and facilities include simple showers, toilets and a washing-up area available for use by guests. There are two local pubs and a farm shop within a leisurely half hour’s walk, while the lively market town of Dorchester (15 minutes’ drive) is the place for stocking up on supermarket shops; it also has a cinema and a scattering of pubs and takeaways. If you need any sightseeing inspo, there’s a covered information point on site that’s full of useful advice on local walks and attractions. You’ll certainly never be short of something to do and see, as it’s 10 minutes by car from Man O’War Beach, the spectacular Durdle Door sea arch and gorgeous, pocket-sized Lulworth Cove on the UNESCO-listed Jurassic Coast.

What customers say

This small, family-run site gets kudos for friendly hosts, spacious/private pitches, and a peaceful vibe. Facilities are clean & functional, with hot showers a highlight. Great location near pubs & bus stops. A few noted minor shower temp/WiFi issues, though improvements are said to be made.

Liked Our host Jan was great. The site was lovely, the facilities very clean. Hot showers that don’t turn off every 30 seconds like a lot of sites. Great location with 2 good pubs in walking distance and bus stops to Weymouth, Lulworth, Wool, etc, by the campsite. Highly recommend.

Liked We had a lovely 8-night stay at Little Birch. We received a great welcome from the owner, who showed us around all the facilities and was always on hand if we needed anything.

The facilities were excellent for the size of the site, and we never had to wait for anything.

We’ve visited a few larger campsites recently, but Little Birch felt much more relaxed and reminded us of the traditional campsites we used to enjoy.

We’ll definitely be back.

Local attractions

So where to start on your sightseeing adventures? Animal-lovers and kids might vote for encountering the rescued primates at Monkey World - Ape Rescue Centre (10 minutes’ drive). Then perhaps a day in the popular resort of Weymouth (25 minutes), renowned for its sandy beaches and the observation wheel on the Esplanade? Heritage sights within easy reach include the hilltop remains of Corfe Castle (20 minutes), surrounded by an ancient village of the same name. Sitting on a headland with views over the English Channel, Osmington White Horse (15 minutes) was carved into the hillside in the early 19th century, and National Trust - Clouds Hill (10 minutes) is the austerely furnished former home of World War I man of mystery TE Lawrence. If you hit a rainy day and the kids are moaning, The Tank Museum (10 minutes) has hangars full of vintage tanks, a treasure trail for children through the exhibits and a soft play centre. The cuddly exhibits at the Teddy Bear Museum in Dorchester (15 minutes) are guaranteed to keep toddlers quiet for a couple of hours too.
