Herston Caravan and Camping

Ik was blij met: Location to Swanage although down a very muddy path.

Ik was niet zo blij met: The site is the worst we have ever stayed in! The whole site is very unkempt, weeds all over the pitches. The toilets and shower blocks are a disgrace! Holes in the Formica in the shower blocks, dirty, no hand towels for the whole duration of our 4 night stay! No hand soap in the dispensers. On arrival you are given a map with no information on, just pitch numbers! We paid £40 a night to pitch our caravan on a very uneven gravel pitch with water and electric and nothing else. We would strongly advise avoid this site at all cost unless it has a drastic makeover.

Ik was blij met: The fact we had all amenities, ie water, hook up, drains, bar on site, shop and the take away food wagon.

Ik was niet zo blij met: Pitches were very untidy, grass needed cutting, generally want tidying. The whole site needs updating.

Ik was blij met: Burger van was great especially the first day when we hadn't packed much food. Pitch was a good size and well set out for awning. Shop and bar, we didn't use but good to have on site.

Ik was niet zo blij met: Showers were not very clean. Used twice and each time had to clean the floor before taking a shower. The second time I could visibly see other than a quick wash down they were not being cleaned well, build up of scum in places. Great to have the amenities but could be cleaner.

Ik was blij met: How friendly the staff was, especially the club house staff and entertainment guy. How close it was to Swanage beach even walking and very local to other activities. Plenty of opportunity for good food.

Ik was niet zo blij met: The cleanliness of the toilets, how unkept the whole place was and how far away the toilet block was, not that we used it. Nothing for the children to do. Pictures were deceiving.

Ik was blij met: Relaxed feel and ideal location for town and beach. Friendly staff.

Ik was niet zo blij met: Shower blocks are dated and quite grubby - defo needs a revamp and clean.

Ik was blij met: The view

Ik was niet zo blij met: No field for dogs, no where for kids to play any ball games at all. The hard standing pitch was dangerous with me rolling my ankles and slipped down the verges onto the big gravel rocks. The whole place needs updating and tidying up, I’d be embarrassed running that site. It has so much potential though hopefully it will improve and we can come back!

Ik was blij met: Great campsite, onside shop, bar and entertainment all bank holiday weekend. Very clean.

Ik was niet zo blij met: No where we could find to recycle, general waste seems to take it all - would be 10/10 if they had recycling!

Ik was blij met: Proximity to town

Ik was niet zo blij met: Only one male toilet close to grass pitches and very dated. Site as a whole a bit run down. Signs stating noise curfew after 11.30 but nobody enforced it. one large group were loud and noisy till gone 3.30am and carried on the next day with loud music and air horns! Actually glad it was raining the next evening to get a peaceful night

Ik was blij met: Walking distance to Swanage

Ik was niet zo blij met: On arrival was given a map of pitch no other information at all Arrived to a scruffy pitch full of weeds ! Had people speeding past on a gravel track making it unpleasant to sit out , we saw no one from the site all the time we were there very dangerous Drive through residential site was really scruffy and no information given to when anything open Walked into ladies and floor gave way only Lino saved me ! Handle to shower fell off ! There is NO WiFi even thought site write up says It’s not an award wining site !! I could go on and on book at your own peril

Ik was blij met: Loved the site. Excellent for walking off road down to Swanage. Staff were friendly, didn’t use any of the facilities so can’t comment on those. Would definitely use the site again 😊
