The Railway Campsite

Swanage, Dorset, England

Non-electric grass motorhome pitch

Very basic site but great location if you bring everything with you!

Aug 2026

Liked Nice location, plenty of space around pitches and campsite even in peak season. Area to camp under trees. Showers were hot and worked well. Cafe was good. Near by bus, train and play park for kids.

Disliked Unclear where to go on arrival. The ground was steep and uneven in areas so it was hard to know where to setup. Composting toilets did smell at points, they were never busy but well used. Limited sinks for washing up without hot water or bins.

From the manager: It is back to basics Campsite, hence the price! For most of the year, it is a field in its natural state. We don’t have Electric so hot water is difficult on all the basins as well as the showers which are obviously free and hot. I’ve put bins out before, but everyone puts their Camping rubbish in and I would just be running them to the main bins constantly. So most people don’t mind walking their rubbish to the bins by the entrance it is inconvenient but the best solution for everyone. All the toilets have been in for sanitary use. There is a sign by the entrance, which says what to do on arrival and a map. I try and answer anything calls if there are any questions to be answered..
