Set in the conservation area of Swanage’s old town on Dorset’s Isle of Purbeck, this delightful Edwardian home invites families and friends for a memorable getaway beside the sea. Around 400 metres from Swanage’s centre, the property is perfectly located for discovering all the sandy stretches and amusements that you’d expect from a seaside resort. Swanage Beach is just over 300 metres away, while the clifftop grasslands of The Downs are under half a mile away, offering splendid views down to Swanage. The popular Swanage Railway (0.5 miles) offers a scenic journey to Corfe Castle, while just 1.5 miles away awaits Durlston Country Park. No trip to Dorset is complete without seeing the Jurassic Coast, and a half-mile walk leads to the South West Coast Path and the chalky summits of these famous cliffs. Other attractions include Studland Bay, Wareham, The Tank Museum, and Monkey World (all within 16 miles).

Sleeping up to seven guests, this end-terrace property charms on arrival with its sun-soaked bay windows and traditional red brick finish. Step inside and kick off sandy shoes in the welcoming hallway where original floor tiles add character to the space. Walk into the social heart of the home, the open-plan lounge/diner. Soaked in natural light pouring through the large windows, this space appeals with its rustic décor, ocean-inspired artwork, a sparkling chandelier, and a busy bookshelf. Unwind in the lounge, kicking back on the soft seating in front of the Smart TV or playing your favourite tunes on the Bluetooth home speaker, and when stomachs start to rumble, lay up the long, wooden dining table and walk through to the well-appointed kitchen. Find all you need in this airy space to whip up celebratory holiday feasts for the rest of the group, who can gather at the dining table indoors or out in the courtyard garden, planning the next adventure over food. When day turns to night, guests have four sumptuous bedrooms to choose from upstairs – two on the first floor and two on the second floor. The first floor boasts a spacious king-size bedroom with distant sea views through the bay window, as well as a cosy single bedroom – please arrange with the owners to have this room prepared. Completing the first floor is a well-equipped family bathroom and a separate shower room. Up on the second floor await a double bedroom and a welcoming twin room, both set under sloping eaves and offering glimpses of the ocean and the Purbeck Hills.

Outside, to the rear of the property, awaits an enclosed courtyard garden which offers a peaceful spot in which to unwind, especially whilst the sun sets thanks to its west-facing position. Enjoy al fresco food and drinks on the furnished decking space, or retreat to the covered patio with your holiday read.4
