From the owner

This first-floor cottage offers a real experience of England and a typical English seaside holiday in a famous area of natural beauty, preserved by the National Trust, also known as the Jurassic coast of Dorset - consisting mostly of cliff and open countryside. It is best suited for walks, sightseeing excursions, literary associations, safe bathing on sandy beaches, golfing, rock climbing, fishing, scuba diving and other water sports. But Swanage and its surroundings are also rich in history from Celtic hill forts, Saxon walls, Norman castles to World War II installations. This was also the home of the famous English poet and novelist, Thomas Hardy, and the villages and towns, the hills and heathlands are rich in associations with his writings..The cottage is available on a weekly basis, Saturday to Saturday. A chief attraction is its location in the very heart of Swanage right on top of the beach, public transport, shops, pubs and restaurants, so you can easily do without a car, though public parking is available & included in the cost

Further details indoors

The cottage has central heating and an electric heater. It sleeps 2 in the bedroom (double bed) and 2 on single sofa beds in the lounge. The cottage is not wheelchair accessible .The kitchen is fully equipped with fridge, washing machine and dryer. We regret - no pets and no smoking. Linen, towels and house supplies are provided.

Further details outdoors

Located on the first floor, the cottage is cosy and centrally located and yet quiet. A Juliet balcony offers a view of the garden below and roofscape beyond.
