Water's Edge - Sea Front Self Catering Apartment in the Heart of Swanage

"I can’t tell you how amazing this place is and the host Claire is so lovely and helpful. All the information you need is provided beforehand and more information when you arrive. It was even better than we imagined and my mum won’t forget her 60th birthday. Claire even left my mum flowers and chocolates. Absolutely brilliant stay and definitely looking to book again. Thank you so much"

"Lovely period property that was well equipped and in a great location for walking to the seafront. You can also access the downs and the country park by walking up the hill. We always managed to park on the road, usually at the top of the hill. Would stay here again and recommend."

OUR LOVELY HOME WITH KITCHEN BALCONY WITH VIEWS OVER SWANAGE BAY/PURBECK HILLS

10/10 Excellent

"This is a beautiful house situated at the top of the town, with amazing views across Swanage. Centrally located for all local services, there are some lovely places to eat and explore. The house was lovely and clean and the spacious kitchen was a dream size, (one of the reasons we chose this particular house, as my own kitchen is tiny) sadly we were not expecting to find most of the kitchen cupboards locked and notices telling us which cupboards we were allowed to use, the same happened with the drawers and wardobes in the bedrooms, and the bathroom cabinet was 3 part full of someone elses toiletries and medication creams.I don't normally like to put negative comments in a review but for just over 2000 for 2 weeks, we expected to get the whole house as promised, this is what has happened on our previous cottage home bookings. We probably would not have booked if we had known this in advance.Overall though the house is a lovely tranquil place to stay, watching the fish swimming around was very relaxing sat on the wall, but it could have been better with a couple of garden chairs to sit out in the sun in the lower garden for when the sun is fierce on the balcony. We loved Swanage itself, its ike going back to the good old beach days, with deck chairs for hire, plenthy of fish & chip shops and other restaraunts to choose from and amusement arcades, crazy golf and with so much for children to do. We would revisit Swanage happily."
