Downstairs is the rectangular open-plan kitchen/diner, which boasts a plump sofa beside the glass patio doors, which is an excellent spot for some morning reading. Next to this is the banquet table with seating for eight, which also benefits from the countryside views. On the other side of the room, you’ll find the spacious and contemporary kitchen with glossy surface tops and modern appliances. On the ground floor, you’ll find a spacious lounge with comfortable furniture and a large bay window offering views of the Purbeck Hills. Additional seating can be found in the second lounge, which is filled with a mix of traditional and contemporary decor. On the first floor is the family shower room, a king-size bedroom, and a super-king-size bedroom with sea views. The final two twin bedrooms are on the second floor. Outside, is a decked terrace with furniture.

You won’t have to go far to find the cosy local pubs, tearooms and antique shops while staying in the heart of Swanage. Wander through the town to find Swanage Beach (0.5 miles) and visit the 19th-century Swanage Pier.

Good base by the Black Swan pub, which is excellent for food and beer. Very spacious, and might be good for families with children, as well as couples, singles.

Beautiful views and flexible quality accommodation. Being on 4 floors was a challenge for our older family but otherwise we loved it!

The four storey house was a perfect size for multi generational family holidays such as ours and a comfortable walk to the shops and beach. Our only negatives out of many positives, are that the house is nestled between two pubs so there's noise overnight as they leave, the off street parking isn't often available nearby and is a good walk from youRead morer car to the house. Also, you have to be fairly agile to be able to safely manage the steep steps down to the kitchen. However, there is amazing views from the rear sitting room of the town, sea, steam railway and the Downs which we missed for many days on returning home Hide

Brilliant property for a large family, or mixed generation/multifamily stay. Could not fault it. Great views across Swanage to the sea. Easy walking distance to everything.

Sea View Villa is furnished and decorated almost perfectly, offers a large deck for sitting outside, and it is located pretty close to Swanage centre and Swanage beach. There are toys for small children and barriers stopping them from falling down the stairs (there are 4 floors). A small grocery shop open Mo-Su and a great pub are ony a few yards aRead moreway. The only problem: it is difficult to find a parking place. Hide
