Eype Beach Holiday Park is a small, beautifully positioned clifftop park on the West Dorset coast, forming part of the West Dorset Leisure Holidays group. With breathtaking views over the UNESCO World Heritage Jurassic Coastline and just steps from Eype Beach itself, this is a rare opportunity to own a holiday home in one of England's most cherished coastal settings.

Life at Thorncombe Heights

Owning a luxury lodge holiday home at Thorncombe Heights means waking up to the sound of the waves, breathtaking sunrises and stepping straight out onto the South West Coast Path, which runs directly past the park. The path takes you up to Thorncombe Beacon and through the seasonal bluebells of Eype Down — a walk that never grows old. The park is dog friendly all year round and benefits from a dedicated dog exercising meadow and Eype Beach welcoming dogs all-year-round, making it a popular choice for owners with four-legged companions.

Owners at Eype Beach Holiday Park are welcome to use the facilities at the nearby Highlands End Holiday Park, which includes the Highlands End Leisure Club with a swimming pool, sauna and steam room, a foot golf course, children's soft play, a nature trail, and the dog-friendly Martin's Bar and Restaurant, which serves a Sunday carvery and Costa Coffee. Please note that charges apply for many of these facilities. Highlands End is just a 15 to 20 minute walk along the coast path, or there is ample parking available.

Exploring the Local Area

The village of Eype itself is a quiet, off-the-beaten-track gem with winding lanes and a genuine sense of seclusion. For food and drink close by, The New Inn and Smuggler's Bar are both local favourites. The nearby town of Bridport offers a well-regarded market, independent shops and a relaxed community feel, while West Bay — made famous by the television series Broadchurch — is just a short drive along the coast.

Further afield, the options are plentiful. Lyme Regis offers fossil hunting, a working harbour and plenty of places to eat along the seafront. Symondsbury Estate is a popular destination for shopping, food and walking, and the landmark of Colmer's Hill is well worth the short climb for the views. For activities, Lyme Bay RIB Charter offers boat trips, Bay Paddleboards is ideal for those wanting to get out on the water, and the Seaton Tramway provides a lovely outing for all ages.
