Located in a quiet residential area on the edge of town, this chic mid-terrace cottage is perfect for a small family or two couples and their canine companion. Furnished in contemporary style, it features two en-suite bedrooms and a fully enclosed garden, while Swanage’s beautiful seafront is just a mile away.
With a colour palette inspired by the butterfly after which it’s named, this modern holiday property has high-end style and every home essential for an effortless self-catering stay. Situated on the outskirts of town, it welcomes guests into a hallway, off which the on-trend lounge has a choice of seating before its bay window where you can stretch out to watch TV or a DVD at the end of your day’s adventures. Flooded with natural light, the contemporary kitchen/diner will make light work of meal prep and has plenty of space to enjoy the fruits of your labours, as well as French doors onto the garden. A downstairs cloakroom ensures convenience for all, while upstairs the two bedrooms each have their own facilities: choose between a king-size bedroom with an en-suite shower room, or a twin with an en-suite bathroom. After a day at the beach or exploring the Purbeck Hills and Jurassic Coast, enjoy peace and quiet in the pretty rear garden here. Fully enclosed, it has a small patio area, outdoor furniture and a lawn – the perfect spot to soak up some sunshine away from the crowds.
There’s a welcoming pub, fish bar and local store on your doorstep, plus a wider choice of shops and eateries in the town centre, just a mile away. Swanage is ideal for a relaxing family holiday – ride a steam train through the Purbeck countryside, stroll along the Victorian pier or simply spend your time on the gently sloping, golden sands – the beach here is an excellent choice for swimming, sunbathing and games. To explore the coastline further, take a day cruise to Poole Quay and you’ll see the Jurassic Coast and Old Harry Rocks along the way, or stretch your legs with a stroll along the South West Coast Path – Studland Bay (3.5 miles by road) is another much-loved beauty spot.
