Enjoy long walks along the South West Coast Path with your best canine friend then return with him to this inviting holiday home in Swanage. Sleeping six guests, the two-bedroom, dog-friendly hideaway nestles just 350 metres from the long-distance footpath that captures the spectacular scenery of the Jurassic Coast. With a courtyard garden to relax in on bright afternoons, the bolthole could be ideal for families or couples with a happy hound in their group.

Open the door to the reverse-level holiday home and climb the stairs up to the first floor with your chum following close behind. Emerge in an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, where he can relax and enjoy the warmth of the underfloor heating, while you set about preparing the fresh produce you have bought in town for dinner. Feed your four-legged friend in the kitchen area and serve everyone else at the breakfast bar. Open the doors to the courtyard garden on fine days or settle down in front of the TV during the evening. Head back down to the ground floor to find two double bedrooms, one with a small double bed and an en-suite shower room. There is also a family bathroom down here, with Jack and Jill access between the hall and the other bedroom. Whizz any doggy towels through the washing machine and tumble dryer at the side of the holiday retreat. Dine out in the courtyard garden, enjoying the sea air with your waggy-tailed friend, as often as possible. There is parking for one car here.

Swanage is home to a host of lovely independent shops, pubs and restaurants, all with the wonderful coastline as the backdrop. Walk less than 1 mile to take your delighted dog for a walk in Durlston Country Park, or venture 5 miles to the beautiful, dog-friendly beach at Studland Bay for fantastic days out in the fresh sea air.

We will definitely be returning. The house is very welcoming, comfortable, clean, quiet and relaxing. The owners had thought of everything. The location is great a few mins to see the sea. A great base for walking coastal paths and Purbeck hills and bus rides to Corfe Castle and Studland Bay.

We stayed over New Years 25/26 and found Netton House well appointed in Swanage for sightseeing the Dorset coast and countryside. Set on a hill out of town, easy access down to the town and seafront by foot. The return walk however could catch the lesser mobile out. The house was spotlessly clean and as seasoned users of holiday homes I would sayRead more the best equipped and clean with attention to detail. Gill responded to our questions by text quickly. The welcome pack was highly appreciated and it was lovely that the house was tastefully decorated for Christmas. We would definitely recommend to friends. Although to cold to use the outside seating area I can imagine it would be very pleasant on a summers evening. Hide

Netton House was just perfect for us (2 adults, a child and a small dog). Spotlessly clean and the kitchen was well stocked with plates, cutlery, glasses etc - we we're also thrilled to have been left some sweet treats for Easter and a bottle of Prosecco, such a lovely surprise. We felt that real care was taken to prep for our arrival. The propertyRead more was a great location for us, close to the gorgeous Durlston Country Park and coastal path. However, it is up a steep hill from the beachfront and Swanage centre which is worth noting if you have mobility concerns. We ate at Cafe 1859, The Pier Head, Smoke on the Water, Seventh Wave and also got take away fish and chips - all were excellent. Studland Bay is a short 15 minute drive away, as is Corfe Castle if you fancy getting out and about. We will definitely return, we loved our stay so much. Hide

This is a really lovely place to unwind whilst enjoying all that Swanage and the Jurassic coast have to offer.

A beautiful apartment refurbished to a high standard & very close to Durlston Park (my reason for being a regular visitor to Swanage) including a state of the art kitchen.
