Our holiday homes are the perfect base for couples or families looking for a comfortable base from which to explore Swanage and the wider Dorset area. They are furnished to a high standard and well-equipped with everything you’ll need for a self-catering break. Our static caravans are the perfect home from home.

Touring & Camping Pitches
At Ulwell Holiday Park we cater for caravans, tents, campervans and motorhomes. We have a range of pitches available, including grass, hardstanding and pitches with electric hook up.
We think our site is one of the best campsites in Dorset and we’re really pleased to see our customers agree. As you’ll see from the reviews, visitors always remark on just how quiet it is!
“Stayed here for three nights with a campervan and awning. It was a sunny, warm weekend which certainly helped on our impression of the site. The number of pitches is relatively small, and we had quiet nights on pitch 72 without being disturbed by other tourers”.
