After exploring the country with our family, we decided to spend a week in a livelier place, leave our car behind and enjoy a “touristy” beach vacation. Swanage offers just that - and the apartment proved to be a great base for swimming, shopping, pub life and other activities. There are of course plenty of opportunities to explore the Jurassic Coast, hiking etc. - but our kids preferred the beach; however, we did do a hike to Durlston Castle which was really nice! As for the apartment, it's really close to the beach but not too noisy (sth that had us worried at first). Everything was comfortable, clean and well equipped (although a bigger pot and pan would have been useful in the kitchen). The master bedroom is spacious and leads to the bathroom, which we liked. The children's bedrooms were rather small, but we spent most of our time outside anyway. We also had a large living room which was very cozy. There is an exclusive parking lot in a narrow street right in front of the house, which could be a challenge if you arrive with a very large car (e.g. a van or SUV) ... for us (VW Passat) everything was fine. The host was also super friendly, gave us lots of recommendations for our stay and even helped us with some things we had forgotten in the apartment! THX - we had a great time!

Lovely flat in fantastic location

We enjoyed our short stay very much , Warren was very helpful suggesting nice walks, restaurants in Swanage and the location was brilliant, any closer to sea and we’d have been in it. Will rebook.

Really enjoyed the holiday and love visiting Studland.

Could not fault our stay perfect location everything you need on your doorstep booked for next year

The flat is in the perfect location. It is mostly comfortable, but we spent a week in early Spring, with excellent weather, but chilly in the evenings. so we played board games. The seating at the table is not overly comfortable for this, probably because we are both close to 80 years old. However, all this said, we spent another very happy holiday in the flat, and would thoroughly recommend it.

We have now stayed at this property several times, as the location is absolutely fantastic and is also dog-friendly! The apartment is right on the sea-front, at the Parade at Swanage, and has amazing views right across Swanage Bay. The apartment has a lovely window seat where you can sit and enjoy the wonderful view of the bay. There is one parking bay in front of the property. Warren is very quick to reply with any queries and the apartment was really clean and tidy. The bathroom contains a small shower and is directly off the master double bedroom, however there is also another separate small toilet in the apartment. Swanage is our favourite seaside town and we absolutely love staying at this apartment, as it is so close to the beach, the harbour and all the local facilities. It is also close to the town with all the lovely souvenir shops and restaurants. We recommend a cocktail at Gee Whites roof top terrace at the harbour (it gets quite busy, however if you leave a contact number, they are happy to ring you when a table is available). They also sell a small selection of meals and aperitifs. We had a fantastic time in Swanage at this lovely apartment and thank you for another perfect holiday stay!

Good apartment with fantastic view and location
