The classic seaside resort of Swanage is right 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 town offers 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 a 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.

The toilet in the ensuite bathroom made an awful screeming noise when flushed it must have been reported as I had a call saying that someone from Jurassic Sparkes would be coming to repair it and to leave the keys in the key safe as we were going out but when we got back the repair had not been done we were not back long from our day out when someone was banging on the door he complianed that he had tried to gain access to do the repair but no one was in I told him that david had told me to put the keys in the key safe did he not tell you the same thing and that I did not come away on holiday to wait in for repair men he also told me that he needed to repair the kitchen blind as we could not lower it at night he did come the next day while we were out but he left grit from the hard water all over the bathroom floor used nearly a whole toilet roll presumingley to mop up water and while repairing one probem caused another this time when the toilet was flushed the ballcock was catchng on the overflow pipe in the cistern causing the toilet to keep filling and overflow outside onto the slabs and left a large puddle also we could still not put the blind down in the kitchen as he had either made the chain too short or put the joiner in the wrong place as when the blind was lowered it stopped at the joiner and still did not reach the bottom of the window we were not happy that these prroblems were not addressed before we came as you have 7 hours to sort things out also may I suggest that you have an in line filter in the cold water feed to the property as it stops all the calcium build up on all the pipes and washing machine kettle and toilets saving you money in the long run

We have stayed in more luxurious places but we have paid a lot more money to do so, so all in all we were very satisfied. A nice quiet location but not far from the main sites such as Lulworth cove and Durdle Door, and in easy reach of Swanage itself.. The lack of wifi might be an issue to some, but not us, we holiday to forget the modern world, it just meant that we only had for channels with nothing on them instead of hundreds.
