Short family break

The property was excellent and extremely central for Swanage pubs and restaurants. The flat was clean and comfortable. Parking in Swanage is at a premium so an allocated parking space 5 mins away was very helpful . We would like to return in 2014 .

Annual November Getaway

Due to Covid we had to change the venue of our annual friends and family getaway. Very pleased to say we were not disappointed with our choice! Lovely apartment hosted by Hannah and friends with all we needed and situated within metres of many food and drink establishments that we made good use of!! Will definitely be recommending and considering a return visit!

Swanage stay,

Straight forward and easy process, from booking the flat, to making changes to our booking, and the actual stay. Flat was clean and tidy and a lovely place to stay in the centre of Swanage and a very short walk to the beach. Many other places of interest are only a short drive away. Good choice of cafes and restaurants nearby if you don't fancy cooking. Really enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

Five night Jubilee break

Great communication from Hannah who was able to accommodate an extra guest at short notice. The property is right in the centre of Swanage and about a minute from the beach. The bedrooms are at the back of the apartment, so are both quiet and dark. There are lots of thoughtful touches and the apartment is well equipped. Would definitely stay again.

The town is full of lovely independent businesses, whether you are shopping or eating and drinking.
