It is situated within the middle of Thomas Hardy country, between Swanage and Weymouth and only 5 miles from Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door. The nearby village of Wool has its own village store, a bakery and a butcher’s shop, and there is excellent fishing in the area in the River Frome as well as various golf courses, bridleways, cycle and riding routes.
Tastefully and stylishly furnished, this rural barn is an ideal retreat for enjoying this delightful area. As its name suggests, Swallows’ Nest is home to a family of swallows and guests can wake up to their delightful birdsong and playful interaction. Outside there are two patio areas with garden furniture, one at the front and one at the rear of the property, to take advantage of the morning sunrise or evening sun. There is also a covered area with table tennis for guests to enjoy. Inside, the open plan living area has high vaulted ceilings, adding to the natural light from the Velux windows and patio doors, and the stylish design in a black and white theme adds to the spacious ambiance. There is a wood burner as well as a heater/air conditioning unit. Eco friendly, the water for the tank is collected from natural rainwater, and solar power provides additional warmth. Both attractively presented bedrooms have TVs and en-suite facilities for added comfort, and many extras have been provided such as toiletries, binoculars, games, books and toys.
The Isle of Purbeck is renowned for its spectacular scenery including Poole Harbour – the largest natural harbour in Europe. The area also features England’s first World Heritage Site, the Jurassic Coast, with its unique geology and fossils dating back millions of years. A short drive takes you to Lulworth Cove with its pebble beach and perhaps take a walk up and over the hill to famous Durdle Door. The whole of this area has lovely scenery and coastal walks. There are numerous attractions, ranging from the Bovington Tank Museum, Monkey World, Weymouth Sea Life Park and Butterfly Farm and Abbotsbury Swannery and Subtropical Gardens. The seaside town of Swanage with its golden sandy beach and Durlston Country Park and Steam Railway are well worth a visit. The historic market towns of Dorchester and Wareham are nearby, as well as the pretty National Trust’s Corfe Castle, Blue Pool, Brownsea Island and Arne RSPB Nature Reserve. Beach 5 miles.

This was our first stay in Dorset and the location of Swallows Nest is perfect. Central to all the places of interest you want to see, you are within 30-60 minutes of all of them and beautiful scenery as you travel around too. The cottage itself is lovely, very modern, clean and spacious. It was a novel and much welcomed experienced for my 2 children to have their own en suite so they were semi independent. We enjoyed many games of table tennis as well as some of the board games too of an evening. We got lucky on our first morning when we saw the alpacas who live near there, we didn’t see them again all week! A wonderful place to stay and the host was so friendly and helpful, we hope to return again and tell our friends and family about the place too.

Swallows Nest was the perfect venue for exploring the Jurassic Coast with beautiful coastal walks. It was homely and comfortable with a lovely wood burning stove. Martin was a very friendly and helpful host and we had everything we needed. We hope to be able to visit again.

The cottage is very well appointed with two bedrooms each with en-suite shower rooms joined by an entrance hall to the kitchen/dining/living area. It’s very well insulated, and nice and cosy especially with the log fire burning. The kitchen is well appointed with a little dishwasher and a washing machine which made life very easy! The owners were most helpful and very kindly offered to meet us outside the cottage if we phoned them about 15 minutes away - very helpful as we arrived in the dark! Thoroughly recommended!
