36 reviews from guests who stayed at Swanage Coastal Park
"General cleanliness on arrival was poor, things had been cleaned around, but nothing moved or cleaned within."
"We look for quiet and peaceful locations and this site ticked all the boxes, it also had amazing views across Swanage itself. There is plenty to do in the local area and lots of nice pubs to visit that are dog friendly. Lovely walks, both along the coast and inland. Swanage itself is a compact town which is delightful to wander around. We enjoyed ourselves so much that weve booked to go back next year."
"Beautiful, modern lodge, very clean and plus of a hot tub"
"A lovely lodge with everything we needed. Very spacious. The freestanding bath was an unnecessary luxury, the en suite shower was more than enough. The hot tub was brilliant for relaxation after walking and exploring."
"Our Swanage Coastal Park review: Lovely stay"
"Excellent Accomodation"
"Really enjoyed our stay, the lodge was spotless and comfy."
"superb lodge very clean and bed was very comfortable"
"Fantastic holiday"
"Our first Hoseasons break. Booked a long weekend in Swanage as my family and friends did the McMillan Mighty Hike in memory of their dad, Gramps and husband. The caravan was spotless and well equipped. It was right by the play area which was perfect for our 4 year old but unfortunately it was out if bounds as a piece of the equipment had been broken and awaiting repair. The beds were comfortable and the quilts warm. Our only 'niggle ' was the lounge lighting. It needed a lamp as it was quite harsh. Can't comment on the walk to the town as we drove and parked. We were lucky to be there for the Folk Festival so lots going on. The lady on reception (sadly didn't get her name) was so friendly and helpful which got our break off to a pleasant start. Our first Hoseasons was a good experience."
"Really enjoyed the stay, it was comfy, clean and felt very welcoming indeed."
"Comfortable and cosy place"
"Nice caravan overall, though the mattresses could use an upgrade, but not a big deal."
"Caravan was very well appointed..Bed mattresses could be better though..But not a major issue"
"Great value for money"
"Perfect for the price"
"We had a really great time staying in this modern lodge. The bathroom mirror with Bluetooth speakers was a nice touch and the hot tub was perfect for unwinding. Definitely planning to return soon, it was such a lovely escape!"
"Really impressed with the caravans cleanliness and the hot tub was a bonus!"
"Theres so much to explore around here and the beach is just perfect! Definitely worth a visit."
"Great spot, we'll definitely come back."
"Really enjoyed our stay"
"Comfortable stay, friendly staff, loved it"
"Really enjoyed the stay"
"We loved the stunning views over the bay, its such a peaceful spot. The staff were genuinely friendly and always ready to help with anything. The nearby beach is lovely, though its a bit of a trek to find a shop for papers, so bring your own if you can. The caravan exceeded our expectations-really comfy and well-equipped, perfect for our dog. Wed definitely return if were nearby!"
"We usually need a few days to chill out, but Swanage Coastal Park instantly feels peaceful and lovely. Definitely recommend it to anyone seeking a break."
"Really enjoyed the trip, the van was spot on and super comfy all round. Would recommend!"
"The cost was a bit steep for just the two of us, but overall, good value for money considering the experience."
"Beautiful spot, definitely coming back again!"
"Really impressed with the quick replies and overall quality. Definitely recommend!"
"Lovely quiet place to stay with beautiful views and less than 10 minutes to the town centre and beach."
"Brilliant would recommend and come again"
"Our holiday was really enjoyable. The views were amazing and it was only a short walk into Swanage were there is a gorgeous beach, shops, cafes, fish and chips, lots of places to walk and explore and more. The hot tub was so relaxing and a real treat after all the walking we did. The caravan is on a steep hill (hence the great views) so it will not be suitable for everyone. We highly rate this park and area."
"good standard of accommodation, clean and modern. Nice location overlooking Swanage Bay. Maybe a little welcome pack with local information would be nice for future guests."
"We had an absolutely amazing time and our children loved every second"
"A lovely quiet park just back from the front in Swanage. All amenities are available in the town but the park itself is ideal for those who just want a very quiet holiday."
"Picking a quiet time of the year was a help. The site is well ordered though hilly, which we knew about. Overall we have nothing to complain about."

A famous limestone arch on Dorset's Jurassic Coast, with a beach alongside.
Durdle Door is a natural limestone arch on the Jurassic Coast near Lulworth in Dorset. It is privately owned by the Weld family of the Lulworth Estate, but open to the public. The arch formed as the sea eroded a band of hard Portland limestone, leaving the small headland that includes it. UNESCO teams monitor both the arch and the adjacent beach.

Britain's largest chalk hill figure, a 180ft ancient giant carved into a Dorset hillside above Cerne Abbas.
The Cerne Abbas Giant is an ancient figure cut into the chalk hillside above the village of Cerne Abbas. At 180ft tall, it is Britain's largest chalk hill figure and perhaps the best known.
