If you don’t want to travel far, Swanage town centre is a 20 minute walk from the park. The pretty seaside resort has plenty to offer visitors, including the award-winning beach, Durlston Country Park and the Swanage Railway. Putlake Farm, Monkey World, Blue Pool and the Tank Museum are all within easy reach by car.

The scenery surrounding our park looks fantastic as the leaves change colour. Wrap up warm and head out into the great outdoors to make the most of the fantastic walks on our doorstep.

What our guests say

  • A lovely quiet site

    Andy Blackwell

    A lovely quiet site, nice warm amenities with good sized shower cubicles, shop not open yet as it’s too early but the local pub is ideal. Staff were very friendly and helpful. If you’re reasonably fit you can walk into Swanage but the bus service is great so why would you want to. Overall a very nice break, we will be back.

    Mit

    We have just returned after a brilliant Easter break. Couldn’t fault anything at all and we didn’t want to leave. We didn’t visit the pub but the shop is stocked with local produce and essentials. The facilities are great and the location convenient. Our van was spotless and had everything we needed. We will definitely be back
