About Primrose Fields Campsite
Relaxed rural family camping is available on an 11 acre wildflower meadow. It's camping in wild surroundings, but with the comfort of clean and well maintained facilities. Primrose Fields is close to the Frome Valley Trail and Hardy Way for lovely walks - bring your dog too! It's also ideal for cyclists - just off National Cycle Network Route 2 and the excellent cycling around the Purbecks. There are no set pitches and most of the field is flat for easy pitching. With plenty of room, groups of family and friends will find it easy to camp together. Children love the field, it's always great to see them enjoying the space, making friends, den building, using the rope swing and spotting butterflies and other wildlife. Great transport links via the Wareham and Wool stations on main Waterloo to Weymouth line make this site perfect for a weekend getaway.
The site is open for the May bank holiday weekends and May half term, weekends in July and then from 23rd July to 31st August.
Site facilities include clean and well maintained toilets, showers, washing up facilities, mains drinking water and chemical toilet emptying. Fire pits are provided, wood, kindling and charcoal are for sale on site. Campfires and BBQs are allowed and there are two large BBQs available for hire.
Enjoy a drink at the Black Dog Inn next to the campsite. Nearby shops for supplies in Wool, two miles away and Wareham, 4 miles away.

Brilliant. Perfect for us. They even lent us a tin opener as we'd forgotten ours! We could have had a fire pit, but was so exhausted with travel, we just went to bed. Definitely will next time. Great place, would stay again.
Fantastic site

This site was perfect for us. The site is large enough for everyone to have their own space and the adjacent woods are lovely for exploring. Facilities were clean and plentiful and the toilets are portable, but very clean. The showers were also brilliant. Lots to do in the local area. The fire pits are another lovely touch. We can't wait to be back.
Amazing stay

Things to do on site and in the Wareham area
Bring your walking shoes, your bike and your swimmers! The long distance Frome Valley Trail, Hardy Way and National Cycle Route 2 all pass 10 mins walk away.
This section of NCN 2 also forms part of the Tour de Manche, the 1,200 km cycling route around the Jurassic Coast and Normandy. The traffic-free Sika Trail in Wareham Forest is ideal for cycling with children.
Take the kids to Dorset Waterpark near Corfe Castle for lake swimming with fun inflatables. Book up with one of the excellent local adventure sports companies such as Land and Wave for kayaking/coasteering/bushcraft.
Wildlife enthusiasts young and old will be captivated by RSPB Arne as featured on the BBC's Winterwatch and the rockpooling and snorkelling trail at Kimmeridge.
The fascinating Etches Museum at Kimmeridge brings the fossils of the Jurassic Coast to life. Monkey World and the Tank Museum both make a great day out with children, as does Farmer Palmer's Farm Park. There are spectacular countryside views and dark skies at night for star gazing.
A walk along the river or around the walls at Wareham is perfect, rounded off with fish and chips on the quay, a popular spot for swimming, picnics and boating on a hot summer's day. Or drift up the beautiful River Frome on a kayak or paddle board hired by the bridge at Wareham.
National Trust Studland or Corfe Castle and village both make great days out, with the steam train from Norden down to the seaside at Swanage also great fun. Nearby Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door combine dramatic coastline with fantastic swimming and snorkelling.
The pretty Purbeck stone village of Worth Matravers makes a great base for walks to Winspit, with its rocky lagoon under the cliffs and St Aldhelms Head with its magnificent views along the coast. Finish off with home brewed cider and a pasty at the quirky Square and Compass with its eccentric museum of Jurassic curiosities.
Don't be shy - ask the campsite owner for recommendations, the owner is happy to share knowledge of this wonderful corner of the UK.
