Perched on the edge of The Downs in pretty Swanage, this elegant Georgian property is a restful spot for a Dorset holiday. You’ll be just 200 metres from the town’s wonderful sandy beach and around 400 metres from the Victorian pier and town centre. The terraced house has a lovely traditional feel to it and with two bedrooms, it is perfectly suited to a family trip or holiday among friends.
Built in the 1830s, this charming ground-floor apartment still retains some original features and is decorated in a tasteful style that showcases its nostalgic charm. The spacious and welcoming lounge has quality wooden flooring, a cosy window seat and an open fire, along with plenty of seating and a large window offering sea views. In the spacious kitchen, which features flagstone flooring, a range oven and an apron sink, you can cook up yummy holiday meals then serve them up in the adjoining dining area. You’ll love sipping coffee in the dwelling’s pleasant front garden, which offers sea views to set you up for the day. The secluded courtyard at the back catches the afternoon sun, offering a wonderful space for al fresco dining with fellow guests.
There’s so much to do nearby, whether that’s taking the pets for walks in the nearby Prince Albert Gardens (150 metres) or joining the South West Coast Path (350 metres) for longer adventures towards Old Harry Rocks or Studland (4 miles). Enjoy a quiet morning exploring Swanage’s varied shops and cafés before boarding a steam train to Corfe Castle (6 miles), an historical village guarded by the National Trust. For energetic children, a trip to Dorset Adventure Park (6 miles) is sure to go down well.
