Cummins Farm Campsite

Cummins Farm Campsite is a relaxed family-run campsite on a working farm at Penn Cross, set in the Dorset countryside between Charmouth and Lyme Regis on the Jurassic Coast. The site sits inland near Whitchurch Canonicorum, and a countryside footpath leads to both Charmouth and Lyme Regis in around 40 minutes, though the operator warns the return climb is steep, so plan ahead. Spacious grass pitches suit tents, caravans, motorhomes, campervans, roof tents and trailer tents, with electric and non-electric options, all booked as a single camping pitch. This is a simple, no-frills site rather than a facility-packed park, so it suits campers who want space and quiet over an entertainment programme. Facilities cover a toilet and shower block with free push-button showers, washing-up areas, drinking water, a waste point and a communal freezer, and food appears on site on selected days. Dogs, awnings, gazebos and extra vehicles are all free. A fully insulated shepherd's hut with a king-size bed offers a comfier option for anyone in the group who would rather not camp. Cummins Farm Campsite opens from early April to late October, with pitches from £14 a night per adult, booked through the farm's online system.
