This is a Holiday Meet at Norden C&CC THS in Dorset.

Set in the boundarys of Corfe Castle Village, with plenty there try to do and see. This holiday coincides with Swanage Carnival and all that it involves.  The site is directly opposite the entrance to the Steam railway which terminates at Swange Town Centre.  Beautiful beaches are a lovely drive away, so is Lulworth Cove! Monkey World, Wareham and much, much more to see and do!

Booked so far

When you say Norden C&CC THS in Dorset do you actually mean Catseye Cottage Campsite only I can't find any campsite called Norden but Catseye Cottage is in Norden?  I thought it sounded rather nice taking a single site break with all that going on around it but not sure where I should book.

Hi, it's a field opposite the carpark entrance to the steam railway at Norden.  The field belongs to Norden farm!  There is no electric, toilets etc, however the toilets in the carpark are open and can be used. There is waste disposal and toilet emptying!  It's a very large field that is little used ran by the Camping and caravan club, so have to be a C&CC member.  It's on page 104 of the C&CC magazine priced £10.50 a night. No Booking required you just turn up!

i have been to the site twice before, brilliant time both times!

Dont know what happened there.  I replied but it just vanished down the earth spike.  Can't see it in the magazine, is the on line version any different to the paper one?  I got page 104 with lots of dates around yours but couldn't find it.  Never mind if one can't book in advance anyway count me in and I'll see you there, so long as I can find it.

Follow signs to Corfe Castle, then as you get near Norden, follow signs to the Steam Railway.  Leave round about first exit, cross railway and take first field entrance on left. If you miss it, you can turn in the bus part of the railway on the right!

There will be signs on the verge and on the gate, it is just literally the other side of the railway crossing!

I think the confusion is that the dates of the THS are July15-August12 according to the C&CC mag.  I assume you are refering to a solos meet there on the dates you quote

Write your comments here... Yes! Just from the 29th onwards, I can't have a month off to cover the whole THS time., so meeting to cover the Swanage CarnIval week plus!

Have a great time at Norden.  It will be three years since three of us met up there. In the March magazine its on page 104, near the bottom of the middle column.

From what I understand, Steve is going to Norden as it opens mid July if anyone is interested in going earlier
