Knitson Farm Tourers' Site sits on a working family farm in Wareham, Dorset, midway between Swanage and Corfe Castle, with low density seasonal pitches spread over four acres for touring caravans, motor homes and tents. The farm keeps dairy, beef and sheep, and the surrounding countryside offers excellent walking with footpaths and bridleways crossing the hills. Dogs are welcome under control, on leads around the farm and footpaths. You're within reach of Swanage's seaside town, the sandy beaches of Studland, and Corfe Castle, plus Poole station 6.8 miles away and Swanage Central beach 1.4 miles away. Nearby attractions include the Museum of the Stone Industry and Santa-Fe Fun Park.
