About this property

A gorgeous character cottage in the heart of the Victorian seaside town of Swanage. Built in 1873 by the main founders of Swanage town, it even enjoyed time as a sweet shop back in the 1950s. The cottage has been thoughtfully modernised over the years without losing any of its period charm and quirky nature.

Dolphins is a lovely three bedroom cottage located in a quiet residential street just a short walk from the vibrant seaside town of Swanage. The cottage is the perfect retreat for a family looking to explore all that Swanage as to offer and is still full of character even after being thoughtfully modernised over the years.

Whilst the cottage is cosy, there is still plenty of space with two bathrooms, an open plan kitchen-living-dining area and an enclosed courtyard garden. The property also has it's own parking space.

    Dolphins Cottage was an excellent location for a family holiday in Swanage, The property had everything as described. We had a problem with a blocked toilet on the first day but the issue was resolved immediately We would have appreciated some instruction on where to put recyclable rubbish ? Everything else was perfect Thank you

    Super location, lovely family holiday . Property spacious, clean and very well equipped. We would definitely holiday here again

  • Mr Steve Mottram

    A lovely cottage, very well equipped, comfortable and close to the centre of Swanage. Many good days out within a short drive and lots of nice restaurants, pubs shops and the famous beach within a short walk. Only minor criticism is the tv signal was patchy, although online apps were available. Just as a word of advice, the last 50m up the road to the cottage is a little steep!
