The cottage is in a quiet road situated in the older part of Swanage; the South West coast path can be easily accessed from the property and leads along the iconic Jurassic coast with breath taking views. The town centre with its sandy bay is around a mile away and can be safely walked form the cottage. Take time to explore the array of independent retailers, galleries and antique shops and relax with coffee and cake in one of the towns delightful cafes.

Reviews

We enjoyed staying at Forget-Me-Not Cottage. It was well equipped, clean and appropriately priced. Thank you.

Mr F,

The cottage is adorable….but listen to advice on mobility issues as the stairs are difficult…but add to the character. But a great location and the log burner was such a lovely comfort.

Mrs C,

Lovely cottage, a short distance from the local beach and the high street. Cottage was well presented and clean, with comfortable beds and sofa.

Mr J,

A cosy cottage in a quiet area of Swanage, a good base for exploring the Isle of Purbeck.

Mrs H,

Lovely cottage- good location 20 minute walk to beach (25 minutes back!). Comfy beds. Good lounge. Kitchen not best equipped (5 saucepan lids-2 saucepans, no wine glasses, dishwasher does not work). Good parking.

Mrs J,

Overall we had a very pleasant stay

Mr Dennis W,

As a whole the property needs new everything, Sofa is very warn and uncomfortable, splits apart to reveal a mousetrap. Dishwasher doesnt really work, new pots and pans needed as they seem to burn and set off the smoke alarm. Location is superb but for the money expected a little more of a finishing touch, higher quality.

Mr Daniel W,

A cozy little cottage which we have visited before and found it an ideal position to get around. The bed was very squeaky and needs improving on to ensure a restful night . The sofa is very low and not ideal for the older generation, but this said we had a lovely stay.

Mrs Heather L,
