Norden Farm

4.7 (585 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!

Great Walking

Griffin, Tracey - 20/06/2026

We stayed at Norden Farm to walk the Purbeck Way. Bus stop right outside towards Wareham and Swanage. Lovely well kept site with large grass pitches. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. Shower/toilet blocks immaculate, plenty of hot water (no push button here!) Pizza van on Friday night. Although busy it was quiet at night. Great if travelling with children, lots of animals, free range peacocks and a large play area.

Beautiful and clean campsite!

Alfonzo, Romina - 19/06/2026

This is a lovely campsite. The area where we parked was very clean and the views are amazing. It’s also really affordable and well connected, even by bus or on foot, with some great paths nearby. Most of the staff were very friendly and helpful.The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is an experience on our last day. While my partner was taking down the tent, a staff member approached him quite abruptly, saying he should have left two days earlier. In fact, we had only arrived two days before, as shown on our ticket. After he explained and showed it, she realised there had probably been an error in their records and left.I understand that mistakes happen, but a more polite approach, or even a quick apology, would have made a big difference. Aside from that, we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend!

Gorgeous Campsite in Dorset

Stewart-Clarke, Julie - 19/06/2026

This was our third visit to Norden Farm. It’s an amazing campsite. So clean and organised from the shower/toilet blocks to the grass cutting and everything in between. Super well stocked shop with the addition of a made to order pizza truck on Fridays giving you a break from the cooking and at the weekends a static cabin that serves bacon baps etc and a variety of delicious coffees. Our EHU pitch was great very roomy and central to facilities. The only problem we experienced was the free WiFi which at the weekends was quite intermittent probably because the site was very busy not that it bothered me as I have unlimited data on 4G but my partner struggled. All in all a super stay the weather could have been slightly better but this is the UK and it didn’t deter us. Will definitely be back.

Disappointing

Foxley, Kealy - 18/06/2026

Site was generally tidy and has good access to Corfe and bus routes but we were Disappointed with the facilities for the price charged. Toilets a bit tired and smelled damp, no shop open in the evenings, peacocks noisy and kept us awake, saw a couple of rats running about and the pitch wasn’t flat. There was also no water near the pitch. One evening of the three we stayed they advertised a pizza van. Got back to the site at 7.45 so we didn’t eat while we were out, and it was closed. Not a great experience and definitely not worth the cost charged have stayed in a lot better for a lot less.

Lovely well kept pitches, excellent shower and loo blocks. An excellent shop, pizza van and breakfast hut. And easy walks to Corfe Castle and its pubs and shops, Swanage Steam Railway is a short walk if you want to go to Swanage or you can get a bus from Corfe. One of the nicest places we've stayed.
