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.

Really lovely accommodation, spotlessly clean and well equipped. A 5 minute walk to the beachfront, 15 minutes into the centre so well located in a nice, quiet area. The parking space was also a great bonus as beachfront parking is expensive.

A lovely upstairs flat that is spotlessly clean and a very short walk to the sandy beach at the quieter end. It's a 10 minute walk to the town shops along the seafront if you don't want to drive. Free parking with permit provided.
