    “A very last minute booking and a there was bit of a misshap with the cleanup and bed change from previous occupants, but things were put right by bedtime although it was a bit inconvenient as kids got to bed late.”

    ...everyone very apologetic and all worked out OK. House as advertised.We could tell by the photo the garden was small but it was OK , big enough for table and chairs and as it was hot we could open the patio doors and eat outside. New property and paint etc new. On the edge of town but not a long walk into town and the beach, we looked at the map when booking so knew it was not near the sea but actually not too bad. We do not usually rent a place without parking but it was the only ...

    ...everyone very apologetic and all worked out OK.

New property and paint etc new. On the edge of town but not a long walk into town and the beach, we looked at the map when booking so knew it was not near the sea but actually not too bad. We do not usually rent a place without parking but it was the only accommodation left at such short notice in school holidays, but it was OK we found street parking close.Handy little supermarket just down the street.

About the location

SWANAGE

Wareham 9.7 miles; Poole 20 miles.

The small, family-friendly seaside resort of Swanage is situated at the eastern end of Dorset’s famous Jurassic Coast, on the celebrated Isle of Purbeck and is probably best known for its wonderful, gently shelving golden sands. The little town offers visitors plenty of shops, good pubs and restaurants, some of which specialise in locally caught seafood, and is also well known for its annual jazz festival, which takes place each July. The attractive, Victorian wooden pier offers a great place for a stroll or try fishing, and often used a departure point for divers, it’s a wonderful place to watch the world pass by. The historic Swanage Railway has its terminus in the town and regular nostalgic steam engine trips take tourists for a picturesque 6-mile journey, chugging through lovely countryside to stop just beyond the romantic ruin of Corfe Castle. Nearby Durlston Country Park offers a lovely day out with spectacular coastal walks, dolphin spotting and wildlife watching, together with comfortable viewing points and a well-stocked cafe for a treat after all the fresh air. Take the short drive to Studland, which has one of the finest beaches in the country, surrounded by heathland, together with the regular chain ferry, which crosses the mouth of Poole Harbour to Sandbanks. This truly is a delightful holiday destination at any time of the year.
