Campsites with fishing in Wareham Forest

·

In Wareham Forest, anglers have their pick of over 800 fishing-friendly campsites, each set among pine woodlands, hidden streams, and quiet lakes. Expect to pay around £90 a night, but you’ll spot pitches dipping as low as £11 if you book ahead. Facilities like hot showers, clean toilets, and pet-friendly rules are common, so you can focus on landing that catch or exploring forest trails. If you want a spot with a solid reputation, Sweet Hill Farm (142 reviews), Brig's Farm (66 reviews), and Lepe Beach Campsite (51 reviews) are favourites among regulars. Between cast-offs, take a dip, watch deer at dusk, or hike the heathland paths. Wareham Forest isn’t just about the fishing—it’s a proper Dorset escape for anyone who wants to swap city noise for birdsong and the splash of a rising trout.

Trowbridge, England · 51 units · Tents, Motorhomes, Glamping
We are a family run farm situated in the beautiful Frome valley. The farm has a range of interests from the traditional Jersey milking cows to a community of workshops used by local craftsmen. The cafe serves cream teas from Easter to the end of September and pizzas are sold in evenings during the summer months. Ours is a small family run camp site with the River Frome on one side, next to the medieval buildings of Stowford Farm. The river is suitable for fishing, boating, swimming and paddling. Historic Bradford-on-Avon is only a 5 minute drive and the City of Bath 15 minutes. For those who enjoy more rural pleasures, 200 metres from the campsite Farleigh Hungerford boasts the only river swimming club in the country, and you can become an instant member for a very small fee.
