Close to the heart of the thriving Victorian seaside resort of Swanage, this colourful getaway is perfect for friends and families looking for a relaxing holiday home within easy reach of the beach, pier and town centre. Offering fresh, light-filled accommodation for five guests, the property has space for a pet dog to join you as you explore a beautiful part of Dorset. Ideally situated for discovering the beaches and countryside of the Isle of Purbeck, this delightful retreat features a cheerful courtyard garden, exposed stonework, a welcoming wood burner and views towards Ballard Down.
This bright cottage offers an inviting split-level lounge/diner providing an ideal space for everyone to unwind together. A step leads up to the lounge which has a wood burner, smart TV and plenty of seating, while the dining area is perfect for enjoying a family feast which you can rustle up in the stylishly arranged kitchen. Upstairs, the first floor features three lovely bedrooms: a charming double, a sweet single and a cheerful king-size room with scenic views and an en-suite bathroom. The property also offers a fresh and welcoming family shower room. Stepping outside, the courtyard garden has a pretty raised decked area accessed by a couple of steps, which provides a fantastic spot to sit back and dine alfresco as you enjoy the views with your canine companion.
Swanage has plenty of great places to eat and drink, many of them dog-friendly, and the cottage is ideally placed for enjoying strolls to the pet-welcoming pier and Monkey Beach. Your dog can also join you to discover The Downs and Durlston Country Park. Exploring the area further, you and your pet can take a boat trip along the coast, or a steam train trip to Corfe Castle (5 miles).
