This light, bright property on the Dorset coast is an idyllic spot for a small family or two couples looking to take a break from the stresses of everyday life. Having been tastefully decorated in a neutral colour palette with fun flourishes throughout, you’ll be able to completely unwind and enjoy the seaside setting. What’s more, Swanage Beach is just a few hundred metres away from the property where you can feel the sand between your toes as you stroll beside the crashing waves.

The hub of the home is the open-plan living room/kitchen/diner with its comfortable sofa, TV and dining table ensuring plenty of space whatever the occasion. Kick back and relax with a film in the evening or set up a board game competition amongst friends up at the table to enjoy the simple pleasures of each other's company. The kitchen is sleek and stylish with hues of grey, equipped with everything you’ll need to cook up a storm, or simply order a takeaway for a tasty treat. At bedtime, take your pick from one of the two bedrooms, one of which is a delightful room with a king-size bed and luxurious bedding whilst the other is a tasteful twin. These rooms share the use of the modern bathroom where you can take a long soak in the tub for a little peace and quiet, or step into the shower for a revitalising wake-up call. Outside, the patio area is a hidden haven with pretty plants and seating creating a beautiful setting for a meal alfresco.

For an invigorating walking trail where you can leave the car at home, take the coast path between Swanage and Studland which stretches for around 5 miles and visit some incredible scenery along the way. You’ll be able to wander by Old Harry Rocks, see panoramic scenery from the cliff tops and be fascinated by the plethora of flora and fauna. For a day trip, why not pack a picnic and visit the iconic sights of Durdle Door (18 miles)?

We had a lovely stay at Victoria Sands. The property was extremely well maintained and spotlessly clean. Bed was very comfortable with top class linen. The location was very good. We were a 10 minute walk away from the seafront , shops and restaurants. The location of the property was in a peaceful area. An ideal property for 2 adults.

Fabulous place to stay! I dont usually leave reviews (unless its negative!), but we had such a fantastic stay here. The apartment is in a great location, 5-10 minute walk to the town, the beach, Swanage railway, all amenities you need, and had a real home from home feel. What we noticed immediately was how spacious the apartment was, and all the Read morelittle extras that the owner has clearly made to give it a wonderful, homely feel. An example of this, was the dressing table in the main bedroom, which had lots of space, a large mirror which lights up (I now want one at home!). There was some tea, coffee, biscuits, a few dishwasher tablets left out, access to an iron, ironing board, a proper hairdryer!, and all the extras that people dont think of. I find beds are always a disappointment when your away from home, but all of the beds were soooooo comfortable, and, we so pleased with the outdoor area. We have a little girl, and this space was fantastic as it gave her a safe, enclosed outdoor area. Parking is round the back of the property, easily accessible, and there is access from the back of the property through a gate, so again, really easy. When we turned on the TV, Netflix was set up for us, with a children section loved this! I would absolutely stay here again, wonderful location, with plenty to do, and beautiful scenery, and a fabulous place. Hide

Stayed at this beautiful appartment this week and it was perfect. Easy parking and walking distance to the town centre. Really comfortable beds and a gorgeous shower and all we needed to cook; plush a washing machine! We also appreciated the outside area with table and chairs.
