Wood Farm Caravan Park, Charmouth, Dorset

Our very first outing in our brand new Bessacarr E495 was a long Easter weekend, when we set off to Dorset. My other half is from Weymouth, Dorset, but on our way there we headed first to Charmouth and Lyme Regis for a couple of days.

We chose to stay at Wood Farm Caravan Park in Charmouth, a site featured in the Alan Rogers British & Ireland Guide and a Caravan Club affiliated site. The site has over 200 touring pitches, 39 of which are fully serviced pitches and a Motorhome Service Point. During our stay, it had been quite wet for a couple of days prior to our arrival and I must admit to getting into a bit of a skid on the mud when I tried reversing back over the drain area.

The site is set on a slope, but with some nice views and with a TV booster system with satellite television set into each mains bollards available. A fish and chip van visits regularly if you don't fancy cooking as well.

We spent a morning in the heated indoor swimming pool, which was not busy, and only a small admission fee and where you can also eat in its restaurant. Wood Farm has good heated facilities and a recreation hall with table tennis, football tables and TV, there is also a children's' playground, tennis courts and even a course fishing pond and a dog walk, so overall plenty onsite to keep the family amused.

Charmouth itself is around a mile away, so just a short walk into town, downhill most of the way but a bit of a climb coming back. Once there you will find good pubs and small shops to fill most of your needs. There is also a very useful Caravan accessories shop on the main road through Charmouth if you forget anything.

If you are visiting Charmouth beach, don't try what my friends did when they took their motorhome down to the beach front car park, only to get into a tangle with incoming vehicles trying to turn around and get back out onto the open road.

This area of Dorset is known as the Jurassic coast and is a World Heritage site. The beach beneath the cliffs is littered with fossils, so children love it, but don't go too close to the cliff bottom, some areas are sectioned off to avoid the crumbling rock face hitting unsuspecting Fossil Hunters.

Lyme Regis is only about 2 miles away and is well worth a visit. There is a good car park a short walk from town which is great for parking motorhomes. A major tourist attraction in Lyme Regis is the harbour, known as The Cobb and which featured in the film The French Lieutenants' Woman, when Meryl Streep walked along it in her long flowing cape. Lyme Regis has lovely shops, teashops and pubs to wander around.

This area of the Jurassic coast is well worth a visit in your motorhome or caravan.

Using Tarps in Summer - Protection in the Summer

If you are like many people, you know that if you are going to spend a lot of time outdoors in the summer, you have to be prepared. In other words, let yourself be exposed to the sun and other summer elements for too long can be dangerous. Likewise, canceling a picnic or other warm weather festivities because of a little rain or passing storm is an absurd notion, especially if you have access to a trustworthy tarp that can cover up your settings and allow you to have fun, even when the sun is too hot or when the rain is coming down. If you are thinking about using tarps in summer, however, you are going to have to be prepared.

First, you need to figure out how you are going to be using tarps in summer. If you are going to be putting up tents, you need to make sure that you have a sturdy canvas tarp. Make sure that the corners are made with rope for added durability. Of course, if your tarp isn't waterproof, then you are going to have some troubles, especially when it comes to those times of unexpected rain. You might want to make sure that your canopy tarp is laminated for extra protection. You also can purchase tarps on which are added solutions that give even more protection against water damage.

Don't forget that if you are using tarps in summer, you also should find tarps that you like. While it's important that your tarp of choice is effective and highly usable, it's just as important that you get an attractive tarp that works for your sense of style. If you are a hunter, for example, with an outdoors sensibility, you might want a tarp that is camouflage. Individuals who are interested in a more modern look for their tarps might want to choose tarps that are in silver to get a sleek metallic feel.

Using tarps in summer is easiest if you know where to get the highest quality tarps for the lowest prices. For most people, the answer is to go to the local store or shopping online. It is important to read all specifications and purchase a cover that will perform well for your particular application. All tarp varieties have different limitations such as weather. For example, although canvas and vinyl are a heavier fabric in terms of ounces per square foot, these fabrics will not perform well in temperatures below 40 degrees. Reading all specifications and doing thorough research is the best method for buying a quality tarp cover.
