Norden Farm

4.7 (686 reviews)

Norden Farm is a family-run camping and touring site set on a working farm just outside Corfe Castle, on the southern coast of beautiful Dorset. With easy transport links, friendly staff, and great facilities, this is the perfect place for a coastal getaway.

Norden Farm is located in the heart of the Isle of Purbeck- set back from the main road, but with easy access. It is a rural farm site and may not be suitable for those looking for ready-made entertainment!

There are three adjacent, level grass fields offering electric hook up pitches, with an additional six- acre, non- electric field for tents and camper vans in peak season. There are no hard-standing pitches at present.

Onsite facilities include flush toilets and chemical disposal points, hot showers and private wash basins, a family room, disabled toilets and wet room (ambulant or aided only), separate laundry and washing-up rooms, a well-stocked farm shop, and a pooch parlour (a wet room and warm shower for dogs). For children, there is a play area and ball games court. We have a fridge and freezer for our campers, along with a locker facility for charging phones.

Most facilities are free for campers to use. WIFI is available for a small fee.

In addition to camping, a traditional farm cottage is also available for hire. This sleeps four and is situated on site, with its own private garden. Norden House is also available as a large self- catering holiday home that sleeps up to fourteen people.

Norden Farm is conveniently located for using public transport, making us the perfect base for exploring the Isle of Purbeck! Norden has two bus stops outside our site entrance, and two steam railway stations a short walk away, making access to Swanage or Poole simple and easy.

Norden is also only 3.5 miles from the ancient town of Wareham, where you will find an array of pubs, shops and the River Frome. Wareham also has a train link to Weymouth or London.

This campsite also boasts a footpath (taking roughly 20 minutes) directly from our campsite into the historic village of Corfe Castle, where you will find three pubs, the bakery and the castle ruins!

From the site, you can take a short drive to beaches such as Studland, Sandbanks and Lulworth Cove! Families will love exploring local attractions such as Dorset Water Park, The Tank Museum and Monkey World!

Awful pitch condition

Davies, Jayne - 17/05/2024

Booked to stay for 5 nights. We had stayed before and initially were wary about going, as the last time we had a pitch in Donkey field, which was very worn and not much grass. It was the end of the season last time, so we gave the site another chance, only to find our pitch this time was even worse. The grass pitch was very worn across the whole width and was muddy and damp underfoot. It had rained quite a bit before we arrived and the pitch hadn’t dried. We asked to move but our request was denied even though other pitches were empty. We had mixed information, as the member of staff who booked us in said that they were for other campers, who were due to arrive in the next couple of days but when we spoke to other campers, they had requested a certain pitch and were refused, as you couldn’t book a pitch in advance!!We had a mat that we could put out to assist and fortunately the weather was fantastic Im sure if it had rained it would have been terrible underfoot. We were in a large

40th Wedding Anniversary

Geraghty, Rose - 17/05/2024

We had a wonderful stay at Norden House with 14 members of our family. Each room was en-suite with a separate large bathroom for us to be able to bath the two young children in our family. When we arrived, the house was spotless with a nice touch of some scones being left on the kitchen table. All rooms were very spacious, and in the kitchen there seemed to be an endless amount of cutlery and plates. Corfe Castle was a pleasant 20 minute walk away through the trees, and the superb beaches of Studland were a 15 minute drive away. The Purbecks is a great place to visit if you love walking and open spaces. There was a pleasant farm shop right next door, to which we ordered our meat for a barbecue and everybody enjoyed the food. Norden House and camp site are a beautiful place to visit for a few days with family and friends.

Well run campsite in an idyllic location

Kelly, Brendan - 15/05/2024

I was using the campsite as a base for hiking on the Purbeck Way and the coast path. The location is excellent; there is a direct path into Corfe with some stunning views of the castle.The campsite is very well equipped - the shower block and toilets were spotless and also conveniently close. There is also a large shop and laundry room though I did not have occasion to use. The pitch was probably the biggest I have ever used, bigger than I really required as I just had a car a person backpackers tent; that said the extra space was appreciated. Most other guests were in camper vans or large tents. Overall, although I normally stay in more basic campsites, the extra luxury was well worth the money.

We have been coming to Norden Farm campsite several times a year for over 20 years. Well run, excellent facilities and a shop stocking all you would need. Ideal location for walking into Corfe for the castle, pubs and shops. You can catch the steam train into Swanage from just across the road.
