We had a fantastic week here. The apartment is lovely and has everything you need for a family holiday. Amazing pool which our grandson loved, as did us all. The sauna & full size snooker table was great too. Everything was spotlessly clean & comfortable. We were lucky to have nice sunny weather all week so we were able to enjoy the gorgeous garden too. The apartment is just a 5 minute walk to Durlston Country Park with its castle, cafe serving delicious food & drinks & amazing costal walks. Sue & Steve were great hosts & were on hand if we needed them. Thank you for making us feel very welcome. We can’t wait to come back!

My partner & I thoroughly enjoyed our break here. The setting is very quiet and peaceful, right on the edge of a country park. The deer showing up daily in the vast garden were a joy to watch. The swimming pool was our main focus and absolutely lovely to spend time in, as was the sauna afterwards, all very relaxing. Kitchen very well equipped, and a barbecue area, and comfy sitting room and beds.Our hosts were very welcoming and accommodating. I have a sensitivity to fragrance & other chemicals, which I corresponded with Sue about in advance and she was very understanding and went out of her way to help. We had a lovely stay and hope to return. Many thanks!

Great location for peace and quiet, walking and exploring Dorset.Beatifully kept property, comfortable and clean with the added bonus of a truly "Private" 40ft swimming pool which is quite unique because in this instance it really does mean private!The Snooker room is also fantastic. Being such a well maintained property there was no need for contact with Sue and Steve throughtout our stay except on arrival. Hope to return one day with the Grandchildren as I am sure they would love the fantastic swimming pool. KIndest Regards Geoff and Marina

A lovely stay in this unique property. Sue was very welcoming and left some lovely goodies to eat & drink. The apartment was clean and airy, set in a lovely garden, often frequented by roe deer. The full-size snooker table was a bonus, and the compact sitting room is more than made up for by the large, indoor swimming pool. The only slightly negative thing is the intermittent wi-fi connection and inability to watch Netflix.

We loved the location-just a stone's throw from South Coast Path, perfect for scenic walks and coastal adventures. The facilities were top-notch, and the swimming pool was a real highlight. The only suggestion would be to upgrade the bunk bed mattresses. Overall, a great stay and highly recommended!

Unique Property

We’ve just spent a terrific week at this unique holiday property. It really did have so much to offer, set in a rural, and yet convenient location. The jewel in the crown had to be the wonderful, large indoor swimming pool, complete with sun loungers, dining table and chairs, a sauna and 2 separate shower rooms - all accessible directly from the kitchen and with no need to venture out into the garden. We had difficulty enticing our 3 year-old grandson away from the pool, even with the promise of visits to the beach! The adults all loved spending lots of time in the swimming pool too!The unusual addition of a full sized snooker table provided lots of competitive fun and we were entertained by the regular visits from roe deer in the garden.The owner, Sue and her husband were an unobtrusive presence during our stay. They were welcoming and friendly, providing milk, cookies, fruit, fudge, chocolates and a bottle of Cremant for our arrival. All in all, a brilliant experience.

Beautiful apartment

Very well kept apartment with lots of lovely extras, such as slippers, dressing gowns, fruit, bottle of bubbly! The main focus of the apartment is the pool and the snooker table, so suitable for teenagers and adults. Pool was a little cold but the facilities around it were great, apart from one shower not working. Sauna was amazing! We all used the shower next to the pool, as the water ran warm there. We couldn’t get the water to run hot in the main bathroom, which is also a bit awkward to get into. Cleanliness is excellent. Everything worked well, the only issue we had was intermittent internet connection. The owners were always friendly and hands on to help but the children couldn’t watch any films on Netflix, which was a little disappointing. The TV area room was a bit awkward too, but difficult to get a family of 5 to relax in after a long day out. The grounds were beautiful but we didn’t explore them. The apartment is very high up on Purbeck cliffs, so great for those that like a hike. We didn’t manage to walk anywhere. We drove into town everyday as it would have been a very steep walk back to the apartment. Durlston castle is nearby which you could walk to, that is a beautiful place to visit.

Easter break in Swanage

Thanks for a lovely stay at your property. The property is in a lovely location just outside Swanage, ith handy access to the costal path for walks from your door. The pool and sauna were very much appreciated by us all. My husband and teenage son loved the full size snooker table. The property is a great size, was very clean with access to a huge garden too. We stayed as a family of 4 and would love to return. The owners were very helpful too.

wonderful place to relax and unwind

We thoroughly enjoyed our time in this very well maintained, clean apartment, and appreciated use of the private swimming pool and sauna, and huge terrace, looking out on an expansive garden with regular deer visits. It was very quiet, which we were glad of, with lovely walks from the house. We weren't relying on the internet, and so were less bothered by fluctuating signals, and would very happily return.

What a wonderful holiday, the pool was an absolute hit with our grandchildren, so much so that they didn’t want to go anywhere else, gifts on arrival, milk in fridge, such friendly hosts, we loved being so close to Durlstone, too steep and hilly to walk into and back from Swanage, so I would recommend a car unless you are very fit, I would definitely recommend this holiday rental and would love to go back again.

A lovely apartment in a gorgeous area

We enjoyed our stay in Dorset which is such a lovely area to explore. We’ve enjoyed private pool holidays for the last 4 years as it’s just incredible having your own pool, both for children and adults, especially if the British weather isn’t good enough! We had a positive experience here and thank Sue and Steve for a lovely stay and for being so helpful. The only thing we forgot to question was Vrbo’s listing which included a hot tub/whirlpool spa which this property doesn’t have. Other than that everything is listed correctly.

The Most Incredible Holiday

This is just the most amazing property we have ever stayed at and Sue and Steve are just the perfect hosts. The place is so well kept, and has everything you could ever want. It’s also worth mentioning that while the listing on its own shows how much stuff the property has Sue and Steve have added so much more little touches, like the milk ready in the fridge, the chocolate fudge, toiletries and Dorset tea and so much more. All of these things just show how incredible they are as hosts and how they truly care about making your stay an amazing one. This will be a holiday to remember and I just hope we get to go as a family again
