Welcome to Acton Field Campsite set on the Purbeck hill with breath taking views over
Swanage Bay.

We believe in the more simple style of family camping where you can choose your own pitch anywhere on our open plan grass areas.

Access to the campsite is quite simple...
Coming from Poole/Bournemouth/Dorchester, head for Wareham and follow the signs to Corfe Castle on the A351. On leaving Corfe Castle take the B3069 up to Kingston and then follow the ridge round to the left towards Langton Matravers. The campsite is on the second right turning after the village sign.

If you are coming from Swanage, as you leave the town follow the B3069 up onto the ridge into Langton Matravers. Pass Putland Farm and The Kings Arms on your left and carry on through the village. The campsite is the last turning on the left as you leave the village.

Facilities include a simple toilet block with hot showers. The showers are on a meter so make sure you bring some 20p's! There is also a chemical disposal point on site and dustbin area which is emptied regularly.

A mobile grocery van visits the site providing fresh bread, vegetables, newspapers and other essential items. If you like to be able to walk to the pub for food and drink then we have The Kings Arms only about half a mile away in Langton Matravers. Otherwise there is the now world famous Square and Compass in Worth Matravers about three miles from the campsite.

Nearest beaches are at Swanage, about 3 miles away and Studland which is about 6 miles away.

".........On a sunny evening, the views from the Langton Matravers - Kingston road are out of this world. Having said that, both sites are part of a World Heritage area, with masses of places for wonderful, old-fashioned summer holiday fun: picnics at Corfe Castle, swimming on the fossil-strewn beaches, and amusement arcades and fish and chips in Swanage."
