Enjoy a slice of coastal living in this crisp and bright two-bedroom property in the heart of Swanage. Spend your days relaxing by the sea, hiking along the picturesque clifftops, and visiting traditional seaside attractions. In the evening, dine alfresco in the garden or settle in for a cosy movie night.

Step inside this first-floor apartment to find yourself in a laid-back and welcoming lounge/diner, which is filled with natural light through the expansive windows. Socialise with your guests while snuggling up on the two sofas in front of the TV. Behind the neutral-toned lounge area is a sizable wooden table with comfortable seating for four. Continue into the airy kitchen with sparkling surface tops and dual-aspect windows, where you can cook a hearty meal for your loved ones. There is also a bright family bathroom and two bedrooms – a king-size and a twin zip-and-link. Outside, you’ll find a well-manicured garden that is shared with neighbouring properties.

While staying in the seaside town of Swanage, explore the local area to discover the antique shops, quaint cafes, and seafood restaurants. Stroll to the golden, sandy Swanage Bay (0.5 miles) and visit the 19th-century Swanage Pier (1 mile). Follow the South West Coast Path to discover scenic views of Old Harry Rocks (4 miles) and immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the Durlston Country Park and National Nature Reserve (1.5 miles). Here, you’ll find The Great Globe sculpture and the historic Durlston Castle.

A superb location. Well fitted out. Out of date WiFi - 2.4Ghz only poor quality weak signal. Heating fails to reach bedrooms directly. Lounge thermometer heats up quickly and turns off heating prematurely.

Comfortable , clean, lots of kitchen equipment. Lots of space to Hang clothes including coat hangers. Lovely local art on display. Everything you need is there. Very well presented flat well looked after. Check in time was a little bit late 3pm could have been better. Check out time to early 10am could have been more fitting for our time. A littleRead more rushed that morning. Hide

In general I find this property first class, my only grouse with Original Cottages is that you don't get first option to renew again for the same time to the following year, it's first come first served.

This property was excellent and well stocked as usual, house keepers always do an excellent job. Our issue is with the fact the prices for next year have risen by over 300 in one year, either owner is getting greedy or Wyke Dorset Cottages being taken over by Original Cottages has made the price jump means we will not be staying here in the near fuRead moreture!
