    “The flat is really nice with good decor and nice views over the hills.”

    The instructions were clear and accompanying information helpful. It is in a great location and easy to park and walk down to the beach or a bit further into Swanage town centre. It would be useful to have a few more mugs and glasses and a spatula/fish slice that can be used with the non-stick frying pan. Unfortunately the bathroom is pretty impractical with a shower over the bath but no bath plug and no tiles or shower curtain to allow for a stand up shower. Even having a sit down shower ...

    The instructions were clear and accompanying information helpful. It is in a great location and easy to park and walk down to the beach or a bit further into Swanage town centre. It would be useful to have a few more mugs and glasses and a spatula/fish slice that can be used with the non-stick frying pan. Unfortunately the bathroom is pretty impractical with a shower over the bath but no bath plug and no tiles or shower curtain to allow for a stand up shower. Even having a sit down shower in the bath was difficult without water spraying everywhere so this needs some more creative thought to make it useable. The windows are old and both whistled and banged in the wind so could do with being updated. The dishwasher didn’t clean well and we needed to re wash everything by hand.

The property

This elegant two-bedroom holiday apartment, Nine Barrow View, is located in the seaside town of Swanage on Dorset's southeast coast.

This property is a perfect location for families looking for a relaxing, self-catered holiday on the Dorset coastline, due to its excellent access to nearby attractions and amenities.

When you've unpacked your bags, make the most of your new home by cooking up a storm in the well-equipped kitchen.

You can then enjoy your culinary creations at the dining table or while seated on the sofa as you watch a film on the TV.

After a long, luxurious bath when evening rolls in, retire to one of two bedrooms, including a plush double that serves as the ideal refuge, where you can rest and recover before another fresh, exciting day.

If you can drag yourself away from your new lodgings, make sure you discover the local area by stocking up on essentials at the Court Hill Stores, book a table at the Black Swan Inn, or grab some fish and chips from a beachfront cafe to enjoy whilst relaxing on the soft sands of Swanage beach.

There are many sights and attractions you can enjoy while you're in the area, such as the magnificent Purbeck Heritage Coast, where you and your loved ones can spend an afternoon admiring the sea views, whilst having fun at K's Funworld Swanage, a great place spend all of your spare change.

Take a trip to Corfe Castle on the Swanage Railway steam train, or jump in the car for a trip to the nearby market town of Wareham.

The chain ferry from Swanage to Sandbanks provides a short cut to Poole and Bournemouth.

By booking Nine Barrow View, you can enjoy all of this and so much more.

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.

Please note: The twin beds are small singles - 2ft 6in.

Please note: The ceiling are low in places - please take care.
