Newlands Holiday Park

Newlands Holidays is a large family holiday park in Charmouth, West Dorset, a short walk from the Jurassic Coast and its fossil beaches. Alongside camping, touring and motorhome pitches and glamping pods, the park has holiday caravans, lodges, apartments and motel rooms, so it works for tents through to a roofed stay. Camping fields spread across sloping and level ground with non-electric, 10-amp and 16-amp electric pitches, and hardstanding is kept mainly for tourers and motorhomes. Charmouth Beach is within walking distance, Lyme Regis is 3 miles west, and West Bay and Bridport are close by, with the site signed just off the A35. What stands out is the on-site leisure: indoor and outdoor pools, a splash zone, a gym, play areas, and the Tow Bar restaurant and lounge. That makes Newlands Holidays a busy, activity-led park, so it suits families and couples who want plenty to do rather than anyone after a small, quiet field. Dogs are welcome with a maximum of two per unit, though some guests note the dog exercise area is compact and pool sessions are charged separately. Camping runs from March to early November, with pitches from £28 a night for up to 6 guests, and other accommodation and dates are quoted through the Newlands booking system.
