The Aspens - lovely holiday apartment, stones throw from beach
Lying in a prominent position in the seaside town of Swanage, The Aspens is a modern and stylish two bedroom apartment.
Once you've entered the main building and travelled up the flights of stairs past the shared entrance hallway, this one-storey apartment is located on the second floor.

This stylishly-decorated holiday home is just a short stroll from sandy beach, promenade lined with attractions and amusements, and many local eateries.
