As the Campsite Park Map for 2024 is yet to be added to their new website - to give an idea of area this year the hard standing pitches were mostly the ones at the bottom four rows of this photo with some overlooking the fields down to West Bay, the gravel pitches are mostly the ones above those with some overlooking Eype beach & the hills & the grass pitches are the ones to the left.

Hi Tony - booking is direct with the campsite with the short form of the details below & fuller info on the first post #1 here https://www.motorhomefun.co.uk/foru...psite-september-2024-booking-now-open.288262/ - Highlands End Booking Office on 01308 426947 are usually very helpful if any problems with the online booking.

Booking Open Now!
The new whizzy website https://wdlh.co.uk/holiday-parks/highlands-end/ is now up & running - after picking arrival date the number of nights box is above that which can easily be missed :blusher: like we did at first! At checkout enter discount code RA in the Unique Code box & click on UPDATE for the 10% discount to be applied to the Meet dates or call Highlands End Booking Office on 01308 426947 if any problems or queries. This time the main Meet will be arriving Monday 2 September & departing Friday 6 September 2024 as these are the quieter & slightly cheaper nights but you may like to extend your stay from 4 nights to a longer stay & the discount should also apply to those nights (y)
Price for a grass pitch with EHU for the 4 weekday nights is from £115.80 after discount or from £144.60 for a gravel or hard base pitch. This rate is for up to 2 people, 1 unit, 1 car & awning or well pegged Quest shelter. Dogs come along at extra cost but most love the enclosed dog exercise field & doggy shower, Eype beach allows dogs as does part of West Bay beach at that time of year with both a walk away along the South West Coast Path.
Once booked please let us know you are joining us, giving your first names & maybe what type of pitch if you want fellow Funsters to say hello :hi: :hi:

To be honest l found the booking site a bit frustrating to get sorted. I booked a Hard Base Pitch thinking l was pitching amongst a few Funsters.

Depending on how many book hopefully you won't be far from other Funsters & any of us can arrange a meet up on pitches (so long as we don't upset non-Funster neighbours!) & in the bar or beer garden which has cover & heaters. Whilst pitch type is booked it's whatever is available on arrival numbering wise but we try to make sure everyone who wants a Fun badge, windscreen sticker or window plaque has them so lots of chats normally result. If you wish to change your pitch type or any other details then suggest contacting Highlands End Booking Office on 01308 426947 on Monday.

Hi Karen/Alan, all booked at LONG LAST, tried phoning, no go, then their website, eventually got a phone number that worked, all booked now, on a gravel pitch from the 1st till the 8th, let’s hope the weather is LOADS better than last year 🤞🥂🍻👍

Yay!(y) Think it being the weekend might have been the issue - hopefully no problems on weekdays. We were there for similar dates this year including the Hat Festival & it was glorious :sun:so fingers crossed! 🤞

A heads up for a Meet for early September next year - Highlands End campsite in Eype, Dorset https://wdlh.co.uk/holiday-parks/highlands-end/ have kindly agreed to offer 10% Fun discount again with the option to extend in addition to the Meet dates, arriving earlier & leaving later also with the discount applying to those extra nights. The core Meet is arrival on Monday 2 September 2024 for 4 nights departing Friday - this allows for those arriving from the Bournemouth Air Show the weekend before &/or following on at Warner's Shepton Mallet Show (6-8 September 2024) or staying on at Highlands for the Bridport Hat Festival 👒🎩 on Saturday 7 September the following weekend. It should be early enough too for those who might like to meet up before heading across to the continent & maybe on the way to ferry ports for some.
It's a lovely, well appointed campsite in a smashing location between two beaches so do hope that some new to this Meet are tempted :hi::hi: as well as the friendly Funsters who regularly join us :hi5:

8/12/23 UPDATE - Booking Open Now!

In addition to the choices of EHU pitches, there are also a limited number of cheaper grass pitches without EHU in the Little Shepherd's area which are near to the facilities but only for tents & VWs.

Hi wobbles.
Sorry but we have cancelled this meet, as I have persuaded the other half to do Europe. First time in moho. Maybe catch up again next year. Hope you all have a lovely time.
Pam, Dan and Dexter.
