Family-Friendly Naturist Campsite Near Swanage and Corfe in Dorset

Studland Summer Camp (SSC) is a long-established, family-friendly naturist/nudistcampsite, situated on the Isle of Purbeck in Dorset, famous for being a part of the Jurassic coast. Our site is surrounded by miles of breathtaking scenery while still within easy reach of the nearby town of Swanage and the historic village of Corfe. We are a friendly, quirky, off-beat naturist campsite with unique character that has developed over four decades, and is welcoming to people from all walks of life. Families have always been at the heart of SSC ever since it was established in 1980, and children are free to play in the safety of our field whilst being in parental view at all times. SSC opens twice a year: a shorter season towards the end of May, and a longer one at the end of July through August. Please see our website for the latest dates. NOTE: our "What 3 Words" location is HEAVEN DISCO WINS
