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 views from this nicely remodeled apt.
This is a very nicely remodeled and redecorated apt. on the third floor of a historic Victorian house overlooking Swanage. The views looking northward are stunning. The apt. is very clean and modern. We thought the kingsize bed was very comfortable and the shower was great. The kitchen is nicely equipped. Off-street parking was a nice extra. The area is very quiet. The location is very good as you can walk to the water front in only a few minutes.

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

Wonderful property, great views, quirky layout and well worth staying at.
The property is wonderful, with brilliant views over Swanage bay from both the main bedroom and from the living room. There’s Lovely old sash windows in the bedrooms and living room, and a quirky layout with the kitchen. The apartment is well equipped with modern TVs, WiFi and the kitchen basics. The second bedroom is a little tight with views out the back of the property, but would be fine for kids. However we didn’t use this during our stay (only two of us). As a few other reviews have mentioned, the stairs are a killer when arriving and leaving if you have a lot of bags, there’s four flights up from the car park, however they’re really not that bad durning the stay and totally worth it for the views. Just don’t forget and leave your phone in the car! Parking is a little tight manoeuvring into the space with a larger car but perfectly doable, also you might struggle with a tall car with a roof box on as we did as it is a fairly low roofed car port. The check in and out process is nice and laid back despite never meeting the landlords. I would definitely recommend to friends and family etc.

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.

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
