It only takes a few minutes to walk to the seafront, which boasts lovely, golden sands set in a sheltered bay perfect for taking a dip in the waters of this Blue Flag Beach.

The stunning coastline has many attractions; Corfe Castle is only a short drive away or perhaps you might like to experience a train ride on the local Vintage Steam Railway.

The local countryside is a walkers' paradise perfect for nature lovers and dotted with pretty villages to discover.

This well-appointed flat provides the ideal base for couples and families to relax, explore and enjoy the beautiful Jurassic coast.

Swanage is situated at the eastern end of Dorset’s famous Jurassic Coast, on the celebrated Isle of Purbeck. It offers plenty of shops, good pubs and restaurants, some of which specialise in locally caught seafood. The attractive, Victorian wooden pier offers a great place for a stroll or try fishing, and often used a departure point for divers.
