We arrived to find the apartment lovely and warm and spotless clean, its far more spacious than the pictures imply, the 2 very large bedrooms are downstairs and it was wonderful laying in such a comfortable bed listening to the sounds of the sea. The views from all windows are AMAZING!!! We loved sitting on the balcony and watching the boats, sea bRead moreirds ect and one morning we watched a seal catch a massive fish and eat it. Its a very short enjoyable walk into the town with its many independent shops and restaurants and steam railway Hide

The apartment was fine. It has an excellent outlook over part of Swanage Bay. We met the owner of the apartment.something neither she nor we had anticipated. This arose because of the ineptitude of the booking company. We arrived at 17.30, thus giving the cleaners ample time to replenish the apartment. However, the apartment hadnt been touched sincRead moree the previous occupants. The companys emergency line allegedly open until 20.00 appeared to be manned by an automaton who offered no help. The owner on the other hand was very considerate and through her assistance we eventually had the apartment cleaned. We got in around 20.30 really tired and definetly disappointed. Hide

Another wonderful stay at The Haven. The flat is very much a home from home for us, not least due to Frances' care and attention to the property and our needs. Swanage is a delight at any time even in a grey, misty November.
