We called in on the offchance and were so pleased that they had room for us. What a wonderful site. We stayed in the Donkey field with electric hookup. The showers and toilets although ancient are to be replaced next year but they are clean and functionable. A mini garden centre, a shop that sells everything, resturant if you want it, and a working farm to enjoy. A pleasant walk through the woodland to Corfe Castle and the Steam Trains, Studland Bay's beautiful beaches and Swanage not too far away. It's so friendly and with such beautiful surroundings,I'm sure we will be returning again.
July 2005 Despite some dismal weather, we spent 4 nights at Norden Farm. It is set in a beautiful location, and although we are relatively new to camping, we found ourselves 'at home' almost immediately. The location is beautiful and very peaceful. We met some brilliant people here and found that the site is ideal for touring, we visited Monkey World and Corfe Castle and wished we had more time (and better weather). The site shop is wonderfully stocked and the showers and toilets (although dated) were clean and provided a good decent (not too hot!) shower. Being a working farm, it was an added bonus to see the cows being taken in for milking and to see calves in the sheds - not to mention the swifts swooping down over your head! We loved it here and would not hesitate to return to this site!
July 2005 We love this site and go back most years. No marked pitches, plenty of space. Toilets/showers not the most modern but always been clean during our stays. Short walk into Corfe Castle. Several pubs in the village - the Fox and the Greyhound have great beer gardens. Also there’s the Halfway House (turn left out of the farm towards wareham, 1 mile) which is a lovely pub and does excellent food. Plenty of places to see around here inc nearby beach Studland Bay which is lovely. Also like the walk from Lulworth Cove to Durdle Door.
Aug 2004 First visit to this site. We stayed in Top Field, fantastic scenery, helpful folk, the kids loved all the animals. Lovely walks into Corfe Castle. We used the Restuarant in the Farmhouse, which was excellent, lovely food and reasonably priced. All in all a lovely spot, BUT, we would have to agree with the previous comments, the toilets and showers really let it down. Not only do they need updating, but at times, were disgusting. From what we saw they certainly weren't cleaned regularly. A real shame, if the toilets / showers were sorted out, this would be the perfect spot.
I have been visiting Norden farm for over 14 years since I was born and I find it is the best place I've ever visited. Each year my family and about 7 other families meet up to enjoy the luxury of this farm. The family run farm offers a restaurant with quality food, shop, garden centre thing, pets corner, animals of all kinds which are totally clean.
Unisex showers and also mens showers and also womens, there is three sets of toilets so over 20 toilets, laundry area all free, play area, washing up area, electric hook ups, cow track, a fishing lake, four fields which are low cut grass suitable for all the family in summer there is a little fair thing with a tombola and stuff to go to charity(cats).
1.Donkey field= I think can pitch over 50 with elctric hook ups, two taps (we stay here it's peaceful and at night familes come together and take part in sporting events which is good if you want to make friends also a good view of purbeck hills and also the ridge.)
2.Main field= will accomadate over 100 pitches electic hook ups again about 3 taps and the field is for the peaceful and closer to the facilities very nice field leading to the pond area and cow track.
3.Top field= Is very peaceful here too for the more relaxed holiday with 1 tap and 20 pitches with washing up area too and own toilets very nice area.
Restaurant= Seats over 25 people very modern decor and is friendly too. You get lots of quality food for all the family, good for the price more than enough. All day food suitable for everyone fast and friendly service.
B&B= Lots of luxury rooms very homey close to shop aswell still on the site was only opened in 2003 cheap prices.
With the views, walks to wareham, corfe castle, and the ridge this is sure to be the best holiday ever.
I hope you like my experience of the place, know it so well I've told you all there is too know.
Good luck Mr Ramm and family for the future with you great holiday camp. See you next year.
Every August for 5 years This is the best site I've ever been to. Very down to earth friendly owners, basic but clean facilities with good hot showers. The site is in very picturesque surroundings, and is the perfect base for exploring the Purbecks. It is, as someone else has mentioned, the perfect 'camping' site, and not a poncy 'holiday' site - I didn't want to tell anyone else about this place in case it got too popular and crowded, it's been my secret for a few years now!
May 2004 Friendly folk, beautiful surroundings, well-stocked shop and authentically stinky farm animals (fortunately some distance from the tents). However, perhaps I've been spoiled by camping in France and other countries recently, but I can't help thinking the shower blocks and toilets really should be of a higher standard in this day and age. Not that the ones here are especially bad but they're pretty scruffy and seemed to get dirty quickly. Yes, I know it's only a farm, but even so... still, I'd go back again.
May half term 2004 we went to this site based on other reviews. Great location, lovely walk through the woods to Corfe Castle, other walks around also. Lots of hot water and nearly all the showers are great, in some the heads squirt all ways!! Have unisex showers, as well as male and female. They also have toilets and washing-up facilities in Top Field. We stayed in Donkey Field, also have main field, I did not see seperate toilets here, must use main ones. Cleaned everyday, toilets and showers only get dirty if it's wet outside or from careless campers! Shop sells most things you may need. My hubby loved the fresh duck eggs. Small childrens play area near main wash-up facilities. Great to see animals so close, peacocks & peahens, cows, ducks, geese, pigs, dear, ponies, have some of these in small childrens farm area, adults to accompany children, shame you can't see the cows being milked. Will be going next year.
April 2004 Went to this site based on previous reviews and they were not wrong. A great site for young and old alike. Very clean shower and toilet blocks and loads of hot water. It was so enjoyable even the rain didn't put us off! Also the area in which it is situated is beautiful.
August 2002 Chose this site as we were going to a wedding in Corfe and wanted to combine it with a couple of days "peace and quiet" We couldn't have chosen better. Toilets and showers were basic, but very clean. Loved seeing all the animals. The Shop sold just about everything you could want. We went to the restuarant with the bride and groom to be and friends and it was excellent. Very good food and very good value for money. The Steam Railway is within walking distance (although have to cross a busy road) and we went to Swanage for the day. Brilliant! Hoping to go again in a couple of weeks and this time we hope to take the grandchildren as I think they would love it.

every year as a youngster I came to Norden Farm every year as a child. facilities have improved over the years they didnt have any electric then. If you prefer the quite life, the less commercial holiday then this is for you. Apart from being woken by a peacock every morning. HA HA. Kids love it there. Plenty of things to do and see. The owners are nice plesent people. I havnt been there for a while but my family are going this year. very much looking forward to it.

July 1993, july 2003 yep it hasn't changed in 10 years!!

beautiful walks and views a working farmyard and millions of cats with attitude.

The last 14 years July - August A very good campsite with good facilities. There are many walks in on the actual farm and you can walk into Corfe Castle village. This is a working farm which when you first visit this is apparent. However after a few days stay you will really begin to enjoy your stay as you are quite near the main towns like Swanage and Wareham and only a pleasant 10 minute drive away from the golden beaches of Studland bay.
It is a Family campsite as there are many animals to look at. Last year (2002) the owner opened up a restaurant, which serves the most fantastic food. There is also a shop located at the entrance, which sells a wide range of produce and camping supplies.
The facilities include toilets spread over the three fields, Showers, which always have hot water, the shop, the restaurant, washing machine facilities, chemical toilet disposal facilities, electric hook up, and at least 2 water pipes in each field.
My family has been going to this campsite since I was 4 and we have never had a bad visit. It really is a pleasant place to camp.
