Our peaceful and quiet park offers stunning scenery in this beautiful and secluded part of Dorset.
A holiday here is all about enjoying the great outdoors and, with its crumbling castles, rocky clifftop paths, and beautiful beaches, Dorset is ripe for exploring.
Back at base, families can opt to holiday under canvas, in caravans, or in luxury. Our hot tub lodges or glamping pod, with panoramic views of Swanage Bay and the Purbeck hills, make the ideal indulgent escape.
Swanage Coastal Park offers peace and quiet with stunning scenery in a beautiful and secluded part of Dorset. This park is perfect for a South Coast holiday, and Swanage is famous for its seaside location.
(Note: due to the hillside location of the park, it may not be suitable for those with walking difficulties)

There are no bars, restaurants or shop facilities at the park but Swanage town centre is just a short stroll away with the wonderful views of Swanage Bay.

Will be back
We have been staying at Swanage Coastal Park for years and years and are never disappointed. The staff at reception are always very very kind and helpful. Caravan was spotless and our stay was great. Will recommend to friends and family and be back in 2020.

Exceeded my expectations
It's been many years since I stayed in a caravan, and as I was there to play for the Blues festival I didn't really know what to expect. Beautiful caravan with everything we could have wanted, including central heating and lovely bedrooms. Fabulous weekend and it changed my view of caravans.
