“Fantastic apartment in a perfect location.”

It has everything you could possibly need. From a cleanliness perspective it was immaculate. We knew when we booked that our car would probably be too big for the allocated space, which it was, but there it plenty of free street parking just around the corner. We only had 2 nights as that was all that was available at such short notice but would love to return for longer next time.

“We originally booked this holiday in May but we had hassle over paying the remainder.”

We were told we had lost our deposit and the holiday had been cancelled, even though we had an email saying we had paid. We had to rebook for the next week and pay a fee, the whole booking process caused us stress and upset. We were made to feel that it was our fault that Sykes had not processed the payment

“Just the little touches of leaving cake and fruit - makes the whole stay perfect.”

Very impressed with the measures put in for Covid. Well done, all involved

“Everything we could possibly have required was there.”

The flat felt spacious, light and airy and was centrally placed in the town so that we only used our car once all week. We had an enjoyable week and wold definitely recommend the apartment to others. Thank you to our hosts for all the little extras.

All very good this was the first time renting a cottage as we use our touring caravan most of the time we were shocked as it was Christmas eve even the little things like cooking foil and shrink wrap was there but we did take our own in case all we can say it was a well earned break away from home I have never slept so much recommend 100 % away from phone and work

About the location

SWANAGE

Wareham 9.7 miles; Poole 20 miles.

The small, family-friendly seaside resort of Swanage is situated at the eastern end of Dorset’s famous Jurassic Coast, on the celebrated Isle of Purbeck and is probably best known for its wonderful, gently shelving golden sands. The little town offers visitors plenty of shops, good pubs and restaurants, some of which specialise in locally caught seafood, and is also well known for its annual jazz festival, which takes place each July. The attractive, Victorian wooden pier offers a great place for a stroll or try fishing, and often used a departure point for divers, it’s a wonderful place to watch the world pass by. The historic Swanage Railway has its terminus in the town and regular nostalgic steam engine trips take tourists for a picturesque 6-mile journey, chugging through lovely countryside to stop just beyond the romantic ruin of Corfe Castle. Nearby Durlston Country Park offers a lovely day out with spectacular coastal walks, dolphin spotting and wildlife watching, together with comfortable viewing points and a well-stocked cafe for a treat after all the fresh air. Take the short drive to Studland, which has one of the finest beaches in the country, surrounded by heathland, together with the regular chain ferry, which crosses the mouth of Poole Harbour to Sandbanks. This truly is a delightful holiday destination at any time of the year.
