Herston Caravan & Camping

Gem of a campsite Beautiful location with good amenities and easy access into the town. Short drive to studland beaches. A good, well-stocked shop with friendly staff. Refreshments/food good and good value. The Glamping tents are comfortable and had plenty of room for me and my three children. Would definitely go back and would recommend.

Quirky little place Allowed early check in and late check out,most staff really friendly. 1 older fella bit abrupt. Breakfast is not available on a Sunday morning! Showers majority were clean, but took a good 15/20 mins to get warmish water to come through, Toilets were clean not place fault, if people can’t flush a chain. My only 2 major issues were noise and there’s no safe, quick, easy access to toilets, from bell tents. Maybe need a set of toilets putting up there. I was a little miffed that the kids play area wasn’t open and not informed. Apart from that alls good

Bell tent stay. We were unlucky with the weather so there was rain which dripped on to our bedding (bell tent) and the road in and out of the camp were clay mud making it tricky to move the car. The pitches were lovely but very close to one another. Quite a trek to the loos and showers (which were cold water in the am). However, they were clean. Seemed lots of long-standing residential camping with plots not always well maintained. The location makes this campsite. The fire pit is also a lovely addition.

Took the family in our motorhome and left early. Terrible site. Very dirty toilets and showers. Site not kept tidy with little landscaping. Shop closed most of the time. Shame as so much potential close to a lovely town like Swanage. Would not recommend.

Came to to your site over the blues festival the site was not clean shower block was unclean no power point to dry hair the site was dead shop was always closed no papers no lighting no gas bottles replacements sending you out of your way grass was not cut for the pitches no room to move your caravan on and off pitch

We are on our way home from a tour of Cornwall in our Motorhome We booked 3 nights at Herston yard Swanage to break up our return journey to Kent. In our arrival I went to the reception which smelt of smoke and musty carpet and was met by a man who appeared unkempt and couldn’t even be bothered to look up when I came in , a lady then came from the back and asked my name then said your on pitch 11 turn right n your along there. No welcome pack given just a map how to walk into Swanage. We paid £120 for 3 nights on a super fully serviced pitch that was nestled among a lot of scruffy statics that I later found out people were living in them because they had been made homeless and the local council were providing temporary housing I have no problem with this but I didn’t want to spend my holiday amongst this The toilets n showers were dirty n shabby The bar n shop were in need of an update and during our 2 night stay (we left early ) There was constant cars tippers and vans coming and going and noise on the Friday night with people talking n laughing until 3.30pm Worst site we have stayed on
