Why campers love it here
About this site
Half an acre of level farmland at East Lawn Farm, a short way out of Gillingham in north Dorset, is all there is to Red Brick House Certificated Sites, and the arithmetic of a Camping and Caravanning Club Certificated Site keeps it that way: five caravans or motorhomes, ten tents, Club membership required to book. Advance booking is essential. Pitches come four ways, grass with electric hook-up or without it, and hardstanding with or without. For a site of this footprint the provision is generous, covering flushing toilets, showers, washbasins, dishwashing, a designated dog walk and backpacker facilities. Distances are easy: about 2 miles into Gillingham town centre, roughly 4 miles to Shaftesbury, some 5 miles to the Stourhead estate, and the Cranborne Chase National Landscape begins just south of Shaftesbury. Anything resembling a bar, a pool or an entertainment programme is off the table, and big twin axle outfits hunting for space will be happier elsewhere, because the whole site is smaller than one farm field. Shops, a pub, a swimming pool and fishing all sit off site in and around Gillingham. Red Brick House runs a 2026 season from 1 March to 31 October, with member prices starting at £15 a night per unit for up to two adults and two children.
