Camping 1 - Church Farm Sixpenny Handley

Camping can be heaven. Camping can be hell.
Dodging muddy puddles past dripping canvas suburbias to find an unlit cold wash block in the dead of night isn't my bag, so this site is a great find.
It nestles in the shadow of the church in the peaceful village of Sixpenny Handley.
The great attraction of North Dorset is that the lemmings generally by pass it by in the mad rush to the coast, this means that even at the height of summer the site is bearable and the users a considerate and civilised bunch. 

Most importantly, the shower block is relatively new and very clean though the clincher is the restaurant which is a far more sophisticated affair than you'd expect from a campsite this size.
The site is divided among several fields; the larger for families  though you can ask for the  Donkey field (no comment) which is reserved for adults.

Footpaths and bridleways start from the door while the lanes make for great, almost traffic free, cycling. It is also close to both Blandford, Shaftesbury and Sherborne.

Charges are £9.00 per person per night for an unserviced pitch in the high season.
