  • A remarkable apartment situated in an enviable position on the clifftops of Swanage
  • Enjoy the beautiful sea views over Swanage Bay from the balcony
  • Located in a family-friendly resort on the Isle of Purbeck, ideal for family holidays
Property code: OC-83794

Elevated above the clifftops of Swanage, this charming apartment is ideal for a family holiday by the sea and is well placed for exploring the Jurassic Coast. Sleeping six guests across three bedrooms, the apartment is just a short stroll from Swanage Bay’s plethora of bars, bistros and eateries and a sandy beach. Wander further afield to take in the impressive sights of Corfe Castle, Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door, all within 18 miles, returning for an al fresco drink on your private balcony.

Climb the internal stairs to the second floor and enter to find your spacious lounge/kitchen/diner. Simple yet stylish with cosy furniture and lots of home comforts, you’ll soon be rustling up a feast in the kitchen and lighting the candles to dine at the table. Step out onto the balcony with your morning coffee, and at bedtime chase away the last dregs of energy with your favourite tipple. There are three bedrooms to choose from, one of which has an en-suite shower room, and the remainder share a generous bathroom. There is allocated parking for one car.

Whether you are tempted by water sports in the sea or a casual wander through the town and across the beach, you’ll find something to suit everyone in this marvellous destination. Cliff-top trails stretch in either direction, so keen walkers will enjoy following the South West Coast Path towards Corfe Castle 12.5 miles east, although it may be best to take the train there and walk back as the route is strenuous. Be sure to look out for porpoises and dolphins too; the resident wildlife is a delight to spot.

A fantastically close location to the beach, 5 minutes walk, a quiet location that is a pleasant 15 minute stroll to the main town. Comfy beds, excellent clothes hangers, decent pillows

Lovely, comfortable flat with great views of the bay. The flat is spacious and well equipped. A great location for walks, and there's a nearby bus stop for journeys to Studland and beyond. We very much enjoyed our stay there.

The apartment was in an ideal location, minutes from the seafront and town. It was fully equipped with all that you need including hairdryers, usb charger and kitchen utensils. The lift was a godsend after ascending the hill to the property after a long walk. Would highly recommend!

Lovely property, well stocked with kitchen amenities so you didn't have to mess around getting stuff from the supermarket. Shower was fantastic. Very well located. The parking is through the gap in the houses and around the back.

This is a lovely clean and sunny apartment with a beautiful view from the living room window. The balcony is too tiny to be useful, but a glass door is good to open for ventilation. The kitchen is exceptionally well equipped, so guests need to take nothing extra; just walk in and everything you could want is there. Bedrooms are modestly sized, but Read morecomfortable and the fitted wardrobes are useful. Both the en suite and main bathrooms are modern and fully tiled. Situated at the top of a steep hill. Hide
