  • Mr Aldred

    Lovely quirky and comfortable cottage but not suitable for anyone walking difficulties as the stairs are quite steep. Always had a good night’s sleep due to the extremely comfy bed. Ideally situated for the beach, town centre shops, pubs and restaurants. We really enjoyed our stay and loved the cottage and Swanage.

  • Miss Murphy

    Fabulous location minutes from Swanage town and beach. Beautifully decorated property stylish and cosy. Great communication from a friendly owner.
