What customers say
This tidy park offers ample spots in woods or fields, with top-notch amenities like clean loos. Reviewers loved the friendly staff, handy shop/cafe, and the scenic walks. Great base for exploring, though some found portaloos iffy, noise during peak times, and weak shower pressure.

A great chill out location if you like to escape from the crowds.
Open Field unpowered grass tent or motorhome site
Liked A beautiful location with great facilities , the shower and toilet block kept spotlessly clean . A nice little shop selling essentials and a great cafe providing breakfast and dinner if required. The site is vast so we'll spaced out with plenty of room to relax.
Disliked Nothing to dislike

Def will never come back
Main unpowered grass tent or motorhome site
Liked Toilets/showers very good .
Disliked All of it apart from toilets/showers. Too many people for us. Late at night car doors banging torch lights shining - and most of all dogs everywhere some on ridiculously long leads so they are not totally under control. Barking throughout evening and early morning. Pooing may be picked up by owners but still messing on grass where children playing. Not much room for children to play safely as too many cars around. People talking loudly in nearby Tents etc forgetting young children trying to sleep. No consideration for other campers. We are local regular seasoned campers so have travelled far and wide and local. But did not enjoy our family weekend here at all.

Great place, and food.
Bell tent
Liked Great tent, it was hot int the day when the sun came out, but was very cold in the night luckily we took out large sleeping bags.
It was a beautiful space.
Disliked Not so much a dislike, but the bell tents was also with the regular tents, I just assumed they'd have their own field.
Although the next day everyone around us left so we had the space to ourselves 😊
The price is fine, it would be nice if bedding was provided that's all.

Main unpowered grass tent or motorhome site
Liked Great campsite in a really convenient location to lots of beaches and corfe castle. We enjoyed the surrounding woodlands and the kids playground. It was a well run facility and the staff were very friendly.
Disliked It felt pretty packed. We arrived late afternoon on Friday and there seemed to be only a couple of spaces left to camp and no fire pits left. Also a surprisingly small number of showers and toilets for so many campers.

Acabámos de passar alguns dias no Burnbake Campsite e tivemos uma excelente experiência.
O local é muito bem organizado, limpo e rodeado por uma natureza fantástica. A equipa foi muito simpática e prestável desde a reserva até ao check-out.
A localização é perfeita para visitar Corfe Castle, Studland Beach, Swanage e outras atrações da região. As instalações estavam bem cuidadas e apreciámos especialmente o ambiente tranquilo e familiar do parque.
Recebemos informações claras antes da chegada e tudo correu exatamente como esperado.
Recomendamos vivamente o Burnbake Campsite a famílias, casais e a qualquer pessoa que procure um local agradável para desfrutar da beleza de Dorset.
Obrigado a toda a equipa do Burnbake por uma estadia fantástica.

Liked Good showers and washing up areas. Well stocked shop and fabulous onsite breakfasts and dinner options including freshly made pizza.
Disliked Midges but further away from the water source helped.
