Reviewer: Monomrlin 1 review from this member

 We only used this site for 1 night for a trip to Swanage but we wished we could have stayed longer. The site was nearly full but there was plenty of space between units and so peaceful. Not Having a playground wasn't an issue as there was a big field for the kids to run around in. The toilets and showers were immaculate and a good idea was the mop to clean up after yourself in the shower.The site is well placed for all local attractions too numerous to mention. On the whole an excellent site and extremely well run.

Reviewer: Gummings 5 reviews from this member

 This is a lovely site. We had no problem getting a hard standing and the shower facilities were central to the site. The site is small and friendly. We have 2 small children and despite the fact that there was no play equipment - this did not stop them enjoying themselves. You can walk for miles directly from the campsite, our children loved waving to the steam engine as it passed us in the field! Great for dog walking and because the local walks are so accessible the dog walk on site is not so essential. Our children loved to feed the horses and goats in the farm next door and a baby calf had just been born.

We went to Monkey World for a day and found some lovely beaches locally, we took the car ferry across to Poole and found a lovely Country Park for the children.

A really peaceful site, excellent quality and a good location - would definitely recommend!

 This is a beautiful site surrounded by farmland and woods which were full of bluebells and primroses when we stayed. In fact we extended our stay by one night. The facilities were excellent and although the site was full we didn't have to queue for showers.

There are lots of footpaths from the site (see this months CC magazine) and a lovely looking walk to Corfe Castle about 2 miles away through the fields. The steam railway is a few minutes walk away although it is a bit of a puff (!)climbing up the hill back to the site. Swanage is very close by and well worth a visit,as is Monkey World, Studland Bay and the Tank Museum.
There are buses but not very frequent from Harmans Cross on the main road. The roads are fairly narrow so watch out if you have a large unit.
To be honest there wasn't any downside to this site for me although no children's play equipment may be a problem for some. There is big playing field though. I was very sad to leave and hope to be back soon, maybe in October for the Swanage Blues Festival.

 Great site, only 54 pitches with great views,in a very quiet spot. The steam train can be seen and heard from the campsite. Lots to see and do.
Swanage 'the parade' fish and chip restaurant serves great fish and chips also the Italian Tratoria is a must but book to make sure you get in.
Studland beaches very good as sandy. If not a member join the National Trust as there are lots of these places in Dorset and you get in for free and to park.
The campsite was spotless usual CC standard. No kids play equipment but a great field which they all played well in. Nice friendly wardens. All in all a great site for touring Dorset.

Reviewer: Cussie 12 reviews from this member

 Nice quiet site situated away from main road. Adequate dog walk although they can't run off the lead as there are cows nearby. We prefer a fenced off field where you can see who else is in there before you enter (Moreton in Marsh has an excellent one).

The pitches are very long but not very wide, so if you have an awning your car has to be parked along the front of your caravan. They are mainly hardstandings but they are really level.

Toilet block always clean but could do with general maintenance and a bit of updating, compared to other cc sites they were quite old.

You can catch the steam train about 1/2 mile form site into Swanage or you can walk to the castle also from the site.

There is a Spar and Londis shop within 1 mile from the site and they stay open until 10pm.

 Compact CC site with centrally placed toilet block. Site is on 2 levels but pitches are mainly flat. Facilities are of usual good CC standard. Site is quiet as it is well away from the main road.
Plenty to see and do in the area. Steam trains run on the adjacent railway line.

 I have only recently found this website and wished to leave a review for this site which we visited as Caravan Club Members last year.
 
The wardens were friendly and very helpful and kept this site wonderfully clean and tidy.  The toilet block was spotless and the family bathroom with baby bath was an excellent idea, although we didn't need to use it.  If only all sites were this good!
 
Will definitely be returning to this site.
