An elegant apartment by the sea, this home in Swanage is just a few minutes' walk from the seafront. Set in an attractive Victorian building, it's a perfect retreat for a couple or a solo traveller, and with its period features and Boho styling, it's bound to appeal to the romantic in you. Tall ceilings, sash windows, oak floorboards and chandeliers are the order of the day here, along with all-white decor and pops of colourful modern art. There's a squashy sofa in the cosy living room, and a well-kitted-out, modern kitchen if you'll be cooking at home. But it's the bedroom we really love here, with its vintage rattan headboard and French vintage furniture. Home truths: *This ground-floor home comes with one parking space at the rear but there's on-street parking too *We noted that the mattress here was on the firm side *There's access to the building from both the front and the rear – there's a shared entrance *It's a residential block so please be respectful to the neighbours *Situated on a hill, it's quite a steep walk up from the town centre
