What customers say
This is a well-located, simple campsite praised for its stunning views, spacious feel, and peaceful atmosphere. Staff are frequently noted as friendly and helpful. While facilities are basic, they are generally considered clean and adequate for the price. Popular with families and solo travellers, it's convenient for exploring Swanage and surrounding areas via bus or foot. Some guests noted uneven ground and the absence of showers and hot water as minor drawbacks.
