Family campsites in Dorset
Serving up a long stretch of tempting coastline, family campsites in Dorset are a hit with all ages. There's a taste of real country life down on the South Coast, with magnificent beauty spots, such as Durdle Door, where parents can lie back and take it all in. It's surrounded by Lulworth Cove, which means splashing, racing and more to entertain little ones. Top attractions also include Bovington Tank Museum and Monkey World!
