"Netton house was perfect for our 3 night stay and had everything we needed. The contemporary accommodation was clean and really well maintained. Swanage is a lovely town, with plenty of pubs, reastaurants and shops. Our eating out highlights were Chilled Red (fish) and Purbeck Plaza (tapas) and we heartily recommend paying them a visit."

"The property is in ideal location with parking and easy to access to the attractions of Swanage. Unfortunately due to the large amount of window area and the hot water system being in the middle of the building it was extremely warm 27-30 degree celicius through out the day and night. Strongly recommend a review on how to cool the apartment, particularly as we stayed before the heat wave which occurred few days later."

"Disappointed that sea view (a reason for choosing the flat) was largely obscured by scaffolding and breakfast was thrice interrupted by decorator working on the balcony. Also parking space difficult to access and the overhanging tree covered the car with blossom and sticky sap which was difficult to remove. Overall did not feel we got all we paid for."
