Perched in an elevated position, this bright and welcoming apartment overlooks the coastline of Swanage and offers a delightful retreat for up to three guests with its open-plan living space and far-reaching coastal views.

Step into the apartment, where the lounge/kitchen/diner welcomes you—a functional and sociable space equipped with everything necessary for a delightful stay. The lounge is furnished with a sofa, matching armchair with a footstool, TV with DVD, and a selection of game and books for your entertainment. The compact yet fully-equipped kitchen makes meal times a breeze, and the light and airy dining area graces the feature bay window, offering breathtaking sea views, with a table and chairs for three. The master bedroom boasts a sumptuous king-size bed and an en-suite shower room featuring tiled walls and a corner shower cubicle. The second bedroom houses a comfortable single bed. Across the hall, the family bathroom awaits for a relaxing soak at the end of the day. Though the property has no outside space of its own, the sandy beaches of Swanage are less than 500 metres away.

The town centre beckons, effortlessly reached by a downhill stroll, hosting restaurants, pubs, and cafes to explore. Immerse yourself in the local charm with a variety of independent shops, including a butcher, baker, and fishmonger, where you can sample the finest local produce and whip up delectable meals during your stay. The lively promenade leads to traditional seaside family fun, while music enthusiasts can revel in festivals such as The Regatta and Carnival Week. Held in June, the annual Fish Festival, featuring fish stalls and live cooking demonstrations, is also a favourite among visitors and locals alike.

We are happy with the service of Original Cottages. We will use your company again in future and recommend to our friends. Observations about Flat 6 Penlu Swanage: 1) Shaver light in main bathroom goes on-off by itself . 2) Radiator in en suite not working. 3) Extractor fan in main bathroom not working. 4) Parking for Flat 6 only suitable for a SMARead moreLL CAR. Should put on details. Hide

Lovely flat, well situated and equiped Cleaned well. Additionals like DVDs, books, games & beach equipment are a lovely bonus to make the stay more home from home We would definitely come again. a few things in the flat that need attention: 1. ensuite toilet makes on odd noise after being flushed 2. Lamp in small bedroom turns on and off withoutRead more being touched 3. shaving lamp in main bathroom turns itself on and off 4. cushions in living room need a wash, they are a bit stained 5. washing machine door doesn't line up well and takes a bit of fiddling to close 6. The hoover smells very bad when turned on 7. Kitchen knives are blunt & there is no knife sharpener 8. Instructions for washing machine not in folder 9. holes in blind in big bedroom 10. When removing bedsheets we noticed the bed pillows & mattresses toppers were stained and need washing 11. Wifi was mostly none existent and completely unreliable. Didnt seem to be located in the flat We did not use the toaster or hon so cannot comment on those. The only thing we found would of been useful to have until you could get to a shop would be kitchen roll and anti-bac spray. Everything else was there. Hide
