Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, it was lovely to read you found the site tidy and staff helpful! Hope to see you again, Burnbake Team.

Lovely stay, friendly staff and beautiful location. I appreciated the 6m distance between tents rule, and the excellent breakfast option!

Lovely

Only down side was little muddy things everywhere in the early hours of the morning, but that's not the site's fault, just unfortunate.

Excellent

First time to Burnbake and we loved it. Great location. Clean and adequate facilities. Friendly staff

. Fab Stay

This was our first time camping just the 1 night for a trial. We couldn't have picked a better place, staff, site, facilities all amazing. Dog's enjoyed the woodland walks. Other campers so friendly Will 100% be going back.

Lovely stop in a natural setting

Lovely grounds with wildlife in abundance. Friendly staff and campers alike. Can recommend the bacon butties and chips from the pop up cafe

Very good

Tried this as our normal campsite was waterlogged. £13 more expensive but did have a shop and café.

Very good campsite

A very good campsite

Lovely campsite!

Really lovely campsite in close proximity to beautiful beaches and countryside. The woodland camping area was a really beautiful place to pitch our tent and we loved waking up amongst the trees. There were all sorts of people camped alongside us, all of whom were lovely - from families and experienced solo campers to people trying out their vans for the first time. Great atmosphere, super clean facilities- providing washing up liquid was a really nice touch! It would have been nice if the Snack Shack were open when we visited but we managed without and understand why it was closed in October. We'll certainly be back and have made plans to bring friends too!

Quick break to make the most of the late heat wave

Very happy with all basically and it suited our young family of 5 with a tent and campervan. Great location between Swanage and Corfe Castle. The only downside was a persistent hum in the night from what I believe was some distant farm machinery. Great to hear the steam train chuffing in the distance!

Fantastic campsite

Good campsite. Close to the beach by car.

Thanks for leaving us a kind review, we look forward to seeing you again soon.

Great site

Very good campsite. The main campsite allows you to pitch anywhere so great for finding a shady area. Unfortunately, a couple arrived on our last night and decided to converse rather loudly at 2am!

Woodland paradise

I will of course come back to Burnbake! I especially liked the wooded area to pitch the tent, I hate the heat and the trees provided a calm and cooling atmosphere. The facilities were optimal, the café had lovely burgers and the staff were very helpful. Only a 20 minute drive to lovely beaches. What else can you wish for?

Absolutely lovely

Absolutely lovely, quiet and convenient little campsite, especially if you want to get away and not have your kids on their phones all the time, because the phone signal is proper pants. Fine for calls just not data.

Stunning location

Loved it. What an incredible location. Would thoroughly recommend camping here then walking to Studland and experiencing the amazing Heath. You'll need your walking boots and sense of adventure, but just a stunning landscape.

Campsite stay

We stayed at Burnbake on our last night in Dorset, the more we wondered around the site we found it a bit untidy. Our biggest disappointment was the cold showers. There was hot water at the basin and the wash up sink but not the shower. Also we felt the choice of pitch wasn't clear.

Hello Roy, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, Unfortunately our pitches are not marked out and our guests love this less regimented approach to our campsite - we do however give good instruction at reception when you check-in where to go with a site map! I am sorry to hear the showers were cold this is not our normal, sometimes at peak shower times pressure can drop, please can you tell me which showers you were using and at what time? If you want to email me directly I am happy to discuss further, Thank you Burnbake Team

Lovely site

Lovely, and peaceful- sits in a great location.

Great location campsite

The campsite was easy to find from Corfe Castle. This was my first camp in 16 years, I decided to go back to basics for the one night. The facilities are more than adequate. My only problem was the cleanliness of the showers and toilets - this was not to my standards. All be it I did use them early in the morning because at 4:15 am was woken by the snoring in the tent next door. The guy who helped with the puncture on the neighbours van was fab and the reception staff were very polite with a quick check in. The dog was also fab (a Cockapoo). Hope to be back again!

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, we are pleased to hear you enjoyed your camping trip with us! We are sorry to hear the facilities were not up to your standard, they would have been checked at 10pm and then not again until 7:30am. So that might have been why you found them like you did. I am pleased to hear you found staff helpful and met the manager dog Teddy, who is normally on hand to greet guests

Rustic Purbeck

Cracking rustic camping in an amazing location. Fantastic.

Thank you! Burnbake Team.

Great location, near Studland Bay

Big site with loads of space for groups. Overflow field has portaloos, but is fine if you don’t mind a short walk to the loos.
