A note from the site themselves...

Golden Cap is a family-run holiday park that has been in the same family for over 35 years. It has a beautiful and idyllic location on the World Heritage Coastline, just 150 yards from Seatown Beach.

The views and walks around the area are spectacular. It's a place to really get away from it all, with walking, fossil hunting, great pubs and lovely places to visit along the coast, including Lyme Regis, West Bay and Abbotsbury.

The park isn't your typical all singing, all dancing park, it's a place to get away from it all, relax and unwind and spend quality time with friends and family. If you do prefer more of those kind of facilities, our nearby Highlands End Holiday Park has a bar and restaurant, swimming pool, soft play and more.

Golden Cap Holiday Park is ideal for...

Couples
Duke of Edinburgh Award
Older children (13+)
Rallies
Young children
