 Fabulous campsite with flat, good sized pitches, clean and modern facilities and a well stocked farm shop.

Helpful and knowledgeable staff who were great with suggestions for activities in the local area.

Bus stop outside site and good bus connections. Buy the day ticket for best value.

Only downside is the busy roads around the site which didn’t feel safe for cycling but otherwise an excellent stay and we will definitely be back next year

 Top quality site, friendly, helpful staff, great shop not overpriced that offers local produce.

Great facilities including fridges, freezers, washers, dryers and charging lockers for you electronic devices.

Very clean and well maintained showers and toilets.

Play area and farm animals for the kids.

The location is a good base to visit local attractions and I would recommend Tyneham ghost village and Worbarrow beach.

3 nights was £78 without EHU.

Will definitely go back.

 The pitch was perfect distance from the entrance, the shop and the on site facilities.

The farm and facilities were very clean and tidy and We liked that the hand dryers were turned off at 11pm so it didn't cause disruption at night.

We went for a hog roast on the first night and enjoyed the on site entertainment.

There were fridge and freezer facilities but it was first come first served. My son used the locker with a charge point which was easy to use.

The washing up facilities were also very useful.

We had however asked for a large pitch with electric hook up which we got but it was pictured on the website with an extension lead, but we had to pay for one as it was not included.

The website also offered free WiFI of which there wasn't.

 I can honestly say this is the best campsite I have stopped at, toilets and shower blocks were very clean,

The farm animals were enjoyed by the kids and the shop had everything you could want.

The location was close to the castle and the Swanage train, within easy walking distance.

Will definitely stay here again.

 Lovely spacious pitches with views over Purbeck Hills.

Friendly family atmosphere, children able to play and cycle safely near pitches.

Very dog friendly.

Good communications from site throughout booking/paying process. Everybody very friendly.

Excellent, clean facilities, but could use another block for top field, long walk from there with children.

Excellent farm shop, hot food provided mornings and evenings, good range of meals.

When we stayed there was live music in events field Saturday and Wednesday, nice festival feel.

Hog roast available on events field, long queues.

Lovely countryside, pubs, beaches and pretty villages nearby.

Reviewer: Ann Dawson 22 reviews from this member

 This is a very good site which has improved over the years.

The access is easy,

The site and toilet facilities are spotlessly clean,

The staff are friendly and the shop is comprehensive.

There is a van serving breakfast baps and evening food if you don't fancy cooking.

During the week it is relatively quiet but weekends and school holidays are busy.

There are good facilities for the children and as it is a working farm there are plenty of animals to see. The peacocks can be noisy but they are also fun.

The TV signal is generally good and there is 3G in the area for phone coverage.

We will continue using this site for our base when in Dorset.

Corfe castle is within walking distance as are the pubs (recommend the Fox) and the steam train to Swanage and there is a good bus service from right outside the camp.

Reviewer: Silver Plated Spork 32 reviews from this member

 This is our third visit to this site so thought it was time for an updated review. Much is still the same, there's a lovely family vibe and the facilities remain excellent. It was Jubilee weekend so there were quite a few campers and it was busy all week.

The showers are hot, adjustable and don't have a push on/off button. The shop is well stocked- some fresh products and store cupboard items, the bakery section was also very nice. Good, well thought out pitches.

They have introduced a campers' fridge and freezer, so you have the ability to freeze your own blocks- I much prefer this over getting the blocks changed in the shop.

They were also putting the finishing touches to a new 'older children's playground' which is in the events field, and then the playground nearer to the shop will be for toddlers only.

There seemed to be only 1 provider of food this time, but open every night with a reasonable range, plus a few nights with specials. This is really helpful, if very popular!

The weather was very kind, so we went to the local beaches and did walks- there's still so much to see. We went to Lulworth Cove and Durdle door, Weymouth, Kimmeridge, Shell bay and the Arne reserve.

Reviewer: Dinley17 1 review from this member

 We had the best week away with family here. It was our first time camping so didn't really know what to expect.

The facilities were clean, the farm shop was amazing had everything you could possibly want, prices were really good as well, the vending machine for milk was very tasty.

As its a working farm, there are different animals to see, every morning without fail our 3yo had to go and see the goats Milly & Molly and Sausage & Mr. Chips, followed by peacock hunting.

The pitches themselves were large with loads of room.

I would definitely return without a doubt.

 Toilets were clean.

Showers were really good, just like being at home.

The farm shop was well stocked with everything you could want.

Nice walk to Corfe castle, you could walk now a flattish path or for the more adventurous you could walk over the top of the hills that rewarded you with wonderful views across the valley.

 Lovely friendly site with excellent amenities and super farm shop.

Roomy pitches and well kept grass plus Daffodil and Tulip flower borders. Great variety of wild birds plus Peacocks, Geese and Ducks. Along with Deer in the adjacent woodland. Great working farm with friendly staff and lots of cute animals including Rheas, Goats, Sheep and Cattle.

I have but one grumble, it went too quickly and I wish I could have stayed longer. Still, next time we stay it will be much longer than the 9 days we had this time.

 What a beautiful site. Very friendly staff, loads of facilities. Very clean.

The farm shop is a bit pricey but very very well stocked. You can even make your own fresh milkshakes.

The site is big but I would not go in anything longer than 7m.

Check in parking is a bit of a lottery as well.

 My fifth annual visit to Norden Farm and things were returning to a greater sense of normality with the easing of some of the COVID restrictions. The charm of the site doesn't fade and I was counting the days to go back more or less from the minute I hitched up the caravan and left the previous year.

Plan was for a relaxing holiday doing a mixture of things I'd done before and things that were new.

Top of the list of new activities was a cruise from Poole Quay back to Wareham. Its a lovely way to spend a day when the weather is sunny and I would highly recommend it. Timing was very good and had a great meal from one of the pubs on the quay at Wareham before setting off back to Poole.

I bought an annual pass for the Swanage Railway and took full advantage of going to Swanage from the Norden Park and Ride station. Its an easy walk from the campsite to the station (apart from crossing the road!) and it saves paying for parking in Swanage.

Swanage has hardly changed over the last 40+ years that I have been going there. One of the newest attractions which has been running for the last 3 or 4 years is the Swanage Rep at the Mowlem Centre who present some fun theatre productions in the summer.

On site I enjoyed the food from the food vans a couple of nights and I can recommend it.

The site was well maintained as always and I cant wait to go back again in 2022 (its already booked!)
