  • "It’s a nice little cosy cottage but you do have to be aware of the many steps within a short space!"

    Especially the tiled step up to the toilet, as it has a sharp corner which you can catch your foot on! It is a fully equipped cottage, everything you need really, & all in all I had a lovely stay.

    Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay and found the cottage fully equipped with everything you needed. We appreciate your comments about the steps within the cottage, particularly the tiled step up to the toilet. While we're not sure why the step is there, we will certainly look to address this issue during future major bathroom refurbishments and remove it if possible to ensure the comfort and safety of our guests. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we hope to welcome you back for another lovely stay in the future. Property Owner

  • "The property was small (but we knew it was going to be) but it is well equipped and pleasant."

    ..especially the lounge area. The kitchen area(s) provide a little thought but again are well equipped. BUT... It should be made perfectly clear to the prospective clients that the bathroom is NOT, as we were informed, on the same level as the bedroom. I am disabled and having to descend the stairs in the dark and backwards (the disability means that I have to have a hand-rail on my right hand side) is not do-able for me...that is why we asked the question. It was a difficult and dangerous bit of misunderstanding (???) which should never have happened. I also note that the refund of the booking fee which was offered in recompense expired two years ago...wonderful.

    Thank you for your valuable feedback. I'm sorry to hear that the layout of the property was not as expected and caused you some inconvenience during your stay. The property description has since been updated to clearly indicate that the bathroom is on the ground floor to ensure future guests are well informed. I understand that someone from Head Office has since been in touch with you directly to resolve the refund issue. Despite this, I hope you enjoyed your stay and your time in Swanage. Property Owner

  • "Lovely little cottage we really enjoyed our stay - good to get back to Swanage after several years ."

    one improvement - better lighting over the sofa side of the room to make it easier to read.

    Thank you for choosing our holiday cottage for your recent stay, and I'm thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your time here, especially returning to Swanage after some time away. Your feedback regarding the lighting over the sofa area is greatly appreciated. We're always looking for ways to enhance our guests' experiences, and your suggestion will certainly help us improve. We'll take your comment into consideration to ensure better lighting for reading in that area for future guests. We hope to welcome you back to Swanage and our cottage again soon. Property Owner

Step into the inviting cottage and be welcomed into the open-plan living space, with original beams overhead and traditional furniture filling the space.

The kitchen is well-equipped for a self-catered stay, where you can whip up delicious meals to be enjoyed indoors, or alfresco upon the private patio with your favourite tipple in hand, resting to the rear of the property.

As day turns into night, catch some rest from the double bed, enveloped by plenty of storage, perfect for unpacking and making yourself at home, before completing your morning routine in the ground floor bathroom.

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.
