Refurbished house, close to the beach, quiet central location

Contemporary, renovated, well equipped house in a quiet cul-de-sac in the centre of Swanage, very close to the beach. The house has been renovated to a high standard and offers 3 bedrooms, 1 King Size, 1 double and two single beds (travel cot also available). The bathroom has a separate shower and corner bath. The newly fitted kitchen includes a dishwasher and washing machine/tumble dryer, double oven and microwave. The Lounge/Diner has a new large sofa and two comfortable chairs with a modern WIfi enabled TV and DVD player with plenty of DVDs. There are plenty of childrens games, toys and books and equipment for the beach. WIFI is included. There is a small courtyard garden with table and chairs. The house is set over three floors. The top floor where there is one bedroom has steeper stairs so not advised for elderly guests. The first floor has two bedrooms where stairs are standard.

The house is just a few moments walk from the long sandy beach, the shops, cafes and restaurants, the Victorian Pier and the Steam Railway. Corfe Castle, Durlston Country Park, Studland Bay, Poole Harbour, Brownsea Island, The Blue Pool, Durdle Door & Lulworth Cove are only short distances away. Children are very welcome but sorry no pets.
Parking is on the road and is unrestricted but does have limited spaces. There are other unrestricted roads nearby or a car park 7 minutes walk away (£50 for the week). The advantage is we are close to everything in Swanage. We don’t tend to need the car once in Swanage. Guests appreciate how close we are to all the amenities of Swanage.
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen and space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

Great house in fantastic location for everything.

The house is on a quiet street, perfectly located for shops, beach, restaurants etc. We were fortunate to be able to park close to the property.The house is very comfortable, and well equipped with everything we required. It is just around the corner from all the shops, restaurants and close to the beach.It has a small courtyard garden, which we used briefly during our stay. The garden furniture could probably do with replacing, but was absolutely fine for the short time we used it.Katie communicated well, and supplied useful information and advice .We would happily stay here again in the future.

Perfect break

We had a lovely week at the property. The location was perfect - so great to be so close to the beach and the town. Although we couldn’t park near the house, we found a spot up by the station just a few mins walk away. We would love to return!

Swanage break

Booking, checking in/out and overall communication with Katie the owner was smooth and efficient.We were walking the Coast Path and Katie kindly allowed us to check in early to drop of some essentials. The property was clean tidy and comfortable. The shower was great. The beds comfy and for 4 men the property was large enough to accommodate us comfortably. We had a great time.

Great holiday home in perfect location

This is now the second time we have stayed at this property and we find this house a perfect base for our holiday in Swanage. The house is in a fantastic quiet spot and very close to everything. No need for a car unless you wanted to travel out of the area however the bus stop and train line are a very short walk (5 mins max) from the house. We had another very comfortable stay here and there are so many extras, like toys, dvd’s and beach items that can be used along with a fully equipped kitchen. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again!

Cosy cottage and central

We stayed over the New Year and would recommend, as Swanage stayed open and there was lots to see and do. The accommodation was perfect, being in the heart of town but still peaceful and close to beach. We found on street parking easy.

Amazing location, wonderful property

We stayed in Swanage in August 2024. The property was exactly as described. Clean, well maintained, great features and very well appointed. We had everything we needed for a pleasant stay. But the best thing about it was the proximity to all the best parts of Swanage town. Railway station, shops, restaurants and beach were all a short walk away. We loved it, we plan to revisit Swanage soon and when we do we won’t stay anywhere else. Thanks for a brilliant getaway!

We had a lovely time in Swanage which was close to the beach yet quietly tucked away. It had everything we needed and was nice, clean and tidy when we arrived. The ceilings are low on the stairs so watch your head it you're tall!

Perfect location, clean and tidy house on 3 floors

The house is ideal for young families as there are 3 good sized bedrooms over 3 floors. It is so close to Swanage town and beach and very clean with everything you could possibly need for a lovely beach holiday! Slight downside for us was the fact there is no downstairs loo, and the stairs are very steep so my elderly mum struggled to get up and downstairs. Also parking is limited and is on a first come first service basis so is not always possible to park on the road, but we did manage to get one on day two and just stayed there all week as we were so close to the town!
