Short stay
Accommodation was perfect for the 3 of us as a base for our Jurassic coast hiking hike. Location of the apartment for all amenities of Swanage and bus station ideal. Stair access only which was fine for us but may be a challenge for some

Great Apartment
Lovely apartment and had everything we needed, was a good location to the beach and the shops. Parking aswell which was good. The view was amazing. Was a few steps when taking your stuff up but you got used to them and we spend most of the time out and about during the day. There is a hill to get up to the apartment but again you got used to it, the only struggle was with full pushchair. We had a 3 year old and he was ok with the steps. I would recommend this apartment to people that are ok with steps and walking. Was a great stay and would stay again.

No hairdryer and pillows flat and old and no keys for 2 couples.
These faults in my review are a shame as the flat was nice not suitable for elderly people or people with walking difficulties owner should state this as it has very steep hill from town then when you reach the flats there is a hard climb up the stairs to flat 5 at the top Swanage was great as usual great blues festival Tim and Michelle Lloyd

Perfect location
The apartment is in a perfect location of beaches and shops as long as you don't mind a few hills and stairs. I travelled with my husband and 2 children (4 and 7) and we all managed well. The apartment itself is decorated to a high standard and is very clean. Nicki was brilliant with communication and all information was in a handy folder. The view from the living room was wonderful and a great place for that first cup of tea of the day. I hope to stay again soon.

Beautiful Apartment with lovely views.
The property stands half way up a hill overlooking the town and the harbour, and has distant views of the cliffs and downlands. It is a bit of a climb if walking up from town, but the views for us, made the climb worthwhile. The layout and comfort of the flat is first class, and having two bathrooms with showers and toilets, a real bonus and time saver in the morning. We cooked and ate all our meals indoors, and found the kitchen well laid out and full of all necessary appliances. The flat is about 7 minute walk to the bus terminus and steam railway. We used the buses everyday to take us to the start of our daily walks, often buying return tickets.The owner of the property was very understanding and helpful, and we fully recommend staying here for comfort, great views and easy access to shops and buses.

We had a lovely week staying at this property. The location is fantastic if you don’t mind a hill and lots of stairs! The town centre and beaches are just down the road and you can walk to Durlston County park. The property had everything you needed and offered great views over Swanage.

Perfect 2 night stay
Ideal for 4 people, the location of this property was perfect for long coastline walks and the town centre. Apartment was spotless and had everything a self catering property should have. Lovely views across the bay from the apartment. Free parking space too. Communication with the owner was also spot on and check in and out was easy. Only note to others, it is a steep walk from town to the apartment, but only 50 metres. And being a penthouse of course there are lots of steps to climb once inside. But if you are aware of this, then enjoy your stay! We will be back for sure. Thank you Nicki!

Appartment fine, two lights missing in sitting area perhaps more cutlery and crockery for four people....and no beer glasses! What a lovely outlook. As we had two cars we had problems parking one car on local streets. The steep hill up to property and the many steps and stairs caused us more problems than anticipated

This was an amazing place to stay in the heart of Swanage, a lovely property with everything you would need. Communication with the owner was easy and they were prompt to reply within the hour. We will definitely return 😊😊, I do think the property could do with a redecoration however this is merely down to the fact that this is my trade and I’m being picky !!! I would not be put off to stay here again and certainly would return very soon. Thank you for an amazing place to stay .
