This seaside bolthole enjoys a prime position on Swanage high street, surrounded by a fantastic array of independent shops and eateries. The two-bedroom apartment on the Isle of Purbeck is the perfect base for families and friends seeking a traditional holiday by the sea, with easy access to sandy beaches, dramatic coast paths, and many of Dorset’s iconic beauty spots, including Lulworth Cove, Durdle Door, and Studland Bay (all within 20 miles). The town itself is full of seaside charm, with a Victorian pier and long promenade, along with amusement arcades and gift shops. There are some fantastic family attractions nearby, including Swanage Railway, Corfe Castle, and Durlston Country Park, all under 6 miles. You can also enjoy boat trips from Swanage, to explore the Jurassic Coast from the water or journey across to the harbour town of Poole for the day.

This light, bright, elegant second-floor apartment is reached via a shared entrance and two flights of stairs leading to the front door. Inside, you’ll be greeted by a chic, galley-style kitchen with a breakfast bar and everything needed for a self-catering getaway. A small flight of steps leads from here to a landing, off which you’ll find a contemporary shower room. Also on this level is an inviting lounge/diner boasting wonderful views across Swanage Bay. Relax here, after a day at the beach, stretched out on the comfortable, L-shaped sofa to read a book or watch the Smart TV. Nestled in one corner is a dining table for sharing mealtimes as a group. Upstairs, two delightful bedrooms await, both with a subtle, nautical theme. Choose from a bright and inviting king-size or a charming bunk bedroom with a double bed on the bottom and a single above. A charming family bathroom completes the accommodation.

The apartment has no outside space. However, with the sandy beach less than 100 metres away, you’ll have plenty of options when it comes to your pre-breakfast stroll. You’ll find a public car park and on-street parking nearby, subject to availability.
