A peaceful site just outside of Swanage
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked The campsite was spacious and quiet which was lovely. The amenities were basic but just what we needed. A very short drive into Swanage for exploring!
Disliked We were not made aware of where to collect the fire pit on the first night, so we could not use it. Then the second night it rained so unfortunately that was a waste of money. The rain couldn’t be helped of course but a text to let us know on the first night would have been helpful! 😊

Liked The site was exactly as described: lovely, simple camping next to nature.
Disliked Not all the other campers stuck to the rules (dogs on leads, no music) but, if they booked other than through Pitchup I’m not sure the rules were the same.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Location of the site near to Swanage. Great views. Friendly
Plenty of toilet paper, facilities cleaned regularly
Owls hooting!
Disliked Plenty of Portaloos but they did become smelly after a long weekend.
Rather hilly - difficult not to pitch closer to others than planned to get a less steep part of the field.

Lovely clean, friendly site
Non-electric grass campervan pitch
Liked Lovely to be greeted on arrival, as this was only our second ever camp we were a little nervous. I was travelling with my 76 year old Mum. We felt we were safe and welcome at Coombe Farm, we were reassured that there would be someone to help at the reception area if we needed assistance.
The toilet facilities were clean and the site was lovely. Bus stop just outside for an easy trip into Swanage and surrounding towns.
So relaxing, would happily stay here again.
Disliked Nothing to dislike, other than my Mother managed to launch a tin of chicken soup all over the awning!
A hot shower would make this place extra special
