We recently stayed at Swansea Holiday Park and it did not disappoint.

The caravan sites are a generous size. The amenities were excellent and always clean, the pool area was great, and the beaches are fantastic.

Highly recommended.
It was the holiday of a lifetime!! I know a lot of people will tell you how beautiful the Mediterranean is, but all I can say is, they haven't been to Swansea Lakeside Holiday Park!!!
Highly recommend, great park and location. All the staff were friendly. Great selection of cookies and coffee in the mini bar.
Great park that ticks all the boxes. Seamless booking in process. Travelled with friends and had two powered sites booked. The park had a lovely, relaxed ambience near the water. And very peaceful & trouble free due to their NO PETS policy. Well done guys.. 👍
Excellent park. Ticks all the boxes. Well priced, large quiet site, spotless amenities, camp kitchen and amazing kids water play area and pool. Convenient back gate for walks along the lake, or just sit on a bench and enjoy the serenity.

Highly recommend.
We booked three villas (one being accessible) for a family weekend. The location was fantastic with incredible sunsets. The facilities were perfect for a family. There is no extra charge for use of the Minigolf, waterplay or other amenities. Everything was clean and well presented. It would have been good to have some explanation of the automated door etc.
had a great experience overall! I booked last minute and was lucky to get a powered site with a beautiful water view — such a bonus. The only downside was the poor Wi-Fi connection, which made it a bit hard to stay connected. Still, the location and convenience made up for it. Would definitely come back
We stayed in a tent with our relatives.
Very nice car park and well maintained caravan park with friendly staffs. Kids were so happy with Swansea Caravan Park, definitely we will comeback there as we didn’t stay that long this time.
Awesome place to take the kids the water park/pools are very well maintained as is the site BBQs/bathrooms/bins etc
will be back again for another stay in the future
Excellent location to take your family, lots of activities for children. nice clean cabins and wonderful friendly service.
Great spot for camping. Love the splash park and swimming pool. Great entertainment for the whole family. Through a gate you can enter the lake. Good for fishing. Showers are included. Just push the button to get hot water.
Washing machines on the side. You can pay by tap and go.

Bring your scooters and little bikes for the children.
Amazing Park with amazing amenities. The park manager Andrew and his team are extremely friendly and have the park running immaculately. Andrew always has a smile on his face and takes time to chat. I highly recommended Swansea Lakeside Caravan Park to anyone considering going there for a holiday.
An awesome caravan park; neat and tidy, well maintained grounds, even a water park for the kids! Great location for a stay-cation or a holiday that's still close to town. The staff couldn't have been more helpful with our stay, Thank you!
Stayed in our caravan, toilets and showers clean and modern, sites large and well kept, Outlook over Lake macquarie lovely, great watermark and playground for kids, bbq's and tables, concrete slabs, ensuite sites, most importantly very helpful and friendly staff. We WILL revisit.
Due to the sudden passing of one of our family members we had to quickly make arrangements for us to stay close to where the funeral was arranged.What can I say but thank you all involved so much for your kindness and going above and beyond to accommodate our family needs.
Spent a day here visiting family who have camped. Excellent facilities, lots of family friendly activities available. Clean amenities. Very well looked after
Our large family stayed in this park over the weekend. Some members got cabins and others set up tents. This park is absolutely amazing. On most days we all just did our own thing and nobody was worried or bothered where anyone else was. There were so many activities to choose from like tennis, putt putt, water park, basketball court, exercise equipment, BBQs and eating areas, powered cites with wifi, clean toilets and showers and shops just around the corner for anything you needed. This is now one of our favourite family holidays and we will be back again. The park has an outstanding level of service and attention to detail. Would highly recommend this to everyone!
Great caravan park, took our own van for a week. The kids and us had a fantastic time on the water slides and in the pool. Lake meters from our site and was a great alternative to the pool. There was also a ninja park, tennis court, putt putt, basketball court etc. We will be back!
We live local but love this Beautiful park, beautiful staff, great facilities always clean. We loved that you have offered a extra service with the friendly girls from Dash offering coffee and snacks. Awesome we will be back.
Highly recommended accommodation.
Thank you to all the friendly staff and the Managers at Swansea Lakeside Park.
What a clean, tidy, and well-appointed Park you all provide.
Our van Ensuite site was wonderful. Very spacious and clean Ensuite, thank you.
The Park is situated perfectly with the Town centre and Clubs nearby, plus situated on the shores of Lake Macquarie where we adults and two young grandsons waded and fished in the clean water.
We also suggest visiting the lovely Swansea Workers Club for a fantastic and very well-priced meal.
We will return next year for another family holiday, and probably with more family members.
Another positive for us was the pet-free code at this Park. We are dog owners ourselves, however, the 'mess', barking, and wandering pets at other pet-friendly destinations have made a few holidays less relaxing. We understand pets are taken on holidays, that's great for the owners, but we prefer a destination without the pet poop and the dogs that bark a lot.
We are so impressed with Lake Macquarie Council's wonderful accommodation at Swansea. We are recommending this Park to everyone we speak to.
December 2023.
