About this site

A farm shop and tearoom selling home reared meat, home grown fruit and vegetables and homemade cakes is what raises East Farm Certificated Site above the usual five van field, and it trades from May through September. The campsite occupies an acre of level ground in the middle of a working beef, sheep and arable farm at Winterborne Whitechurch, just beyond the village and some 5 miles south west of Blandford Forum. This is the rolling country of the Dorset Downs, a designated National Landscape, with Dorchester about 10 miles off and the Dorset coast half an hour by car. Certification comes through the Camping and Caravanning Club, so membership is needed, and capacity stops at 5 caravans or motorhomes and 10 tents. Grass pitches are offered with or without electric hook-up, backed by flushing toilets, showers, washbasins and ice pack freezing. Dogs and children are both welcome, ball games have room to happen, and footpaths and bridleways lead straight off the site. Horses can be accommodated by arrangement with the owners at £25 a night. Non members, sizeable groups and anyone after a pool, a bar or a hardstanding should book somewhere else. East Farm runs its 2026 season from 1 April to 31 October, with member prices from £20 a night per unit.

Good to know

Do I need to be a Camping and Caravanning Club member to stay at East Farm?
Yes, East Farm is a Certificated Site, so only Camping and Caravanning Club members can book it. The Club caps Certificated Sites at 5 caravans or motorhomes and up to 10 tents, which is why the camping field stays quiet even in August. Advance booking is advisable rather than essential.
Are dogs allowed at East Farm Certificated Site?
Yes, dogs are welcome and so are children. This is a working farm with beef cattle and sheep, and footpaths and bridleways lead off the camping field, so keep dogs on a lead around livestock and stock fences. There is plenty of open space for a proper walk before bed.
Is there electric hook-up at East Farm?
Yes, the Camping and Caravanning Club listing shows grass pitches with electric hook-up alongside grass pitches without electric. There are no hardstandings, so the field can be soft after heavy rain. Book the pitch type you want in advance, because there are only five caravan or motorhome pitches.
When is East Farm Certificated Site open?
The Club listing gives the 2026 season as 1 April to 31 October. The farm shop and tearoom on site open from May to September only, so an April or October trip means shopping in Blandford Forum, about 5 miles away, or in the surrounding villages instead.
How much does it cost to camp at East Farm near Blandford?
Member prices run from £20 to £25 a night per unit, covering up to two adults and two children, according to the Camping and Caravanning Club listing. Horses can be accommodated by arrangement for £25 a night. Booking goes through the Club website once you are logged in as a member.
Is there a shop on site at East Farm?
Yes, there is a farm shop and tearoom on the farm selling home reared meat, home grown fruit and vegetables, homemade cakes and other local produce. It opens from May to September only. Outside those months, Blandford Forum is about 5 miles away and the nearby villages have pubs.
