Malcolm “We had a great time at Pebbles, so convenient just a short level walk to the beach and shops and good to have a dedicated parking space.”
- Malcolm, August 2023 -
Julie “Absolutely spotless.”
Great location. Well equipped.
- Julie, July 2023Vivienne “We did have difficulty with the induction hob but we phoned Marion Field and she helped us.”
There were no instructions for the hob only the grill/oven. We felt that the settee could do with being updated
- Vivienne, June 2023I was glad we could get the hob to work for you. I have now made some videos to demonstrate the use of both the hob and the oven. Our sofa appears to cause some issue with our guests. It was brand new in 2021, of an expensive brand and purchased particularly for the flat. However, the seat cushions are filled with feathers which, with hindsight, weren’t a good choice as they require frequent plumping to regain their shape. This is for our guests not very practical, of course. Property Owner
Heather “We had a very comfortable time at Pebbles and the accommodation more than met our expectations.”
The modern showroom was lovely. Although we were warned about steps into kitchen, we were surprised how steep they were.
- Heather, June 2023Keith “A stylish, quirky flat.”
Very well decorated with a modern bathroom (lovely shower) and kitchen (induction hob and coffee machine) plus lots of extras. With on site parking and just a short stroll to the beach made this the perfect place for our holiday.
- Keith, September 2022J “The settee was uncomfortable.”
The fridge has no freezer compartment
- J, August 2022Thank you for your feedback. I was very pleased about your repeat booking for two weeks this summer after your first stay in April when you gave top marks for the flat. I am pleased to let you know that a new fridge with a freezer compartment was actually delivered on the day of your departure. Property Owner
Christine “Marion had thought of everything you would need including toothbrush and phone charger!”
Bed is large and comfortable. Would 100% recommend and can’t wait till our next visit
- Christine, July 2022Richard “We enjoyed our stay and the property ticked the boxes, lovely shower room.”
Very convenient for the beach and shops etc.. A fridge with a small freezer compartment would have been nice. Couldn't get on with the swivel dining chairs. A handrail should be fitted to the staircase (6 steps) from the 1st floor landing to the apartment entrance door.
- Richard, July 2022David “We had a very enjoyable holiday, the flat is comfortable and in a perfect location.”
A short walk to the beach, restaurants and shops, the Swanage Steam Railway and regular buses to Bournemouth and Poole. There are also plenty of walks for the more energetic.
- David, April 2022J “The flat is ideal for a couple to have a holiday in Swanage .”
Near to all facilities and of course the beach.The cost is very reasonable.The only problem we had was a lot of noise from the flat upstairs
- J, April 2022Andrew “This was a very comfortable apartment.”
We instantly felt at home. We contacted the owner once and they were very friendly and helpful. The bed was very comfortable and the shower was great. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and will definitely book again. Would highly recommend.
- Andrew, March 2022Thank you so much for your great feedback. I am glad that you enjoyed your special holiday staying at the flat. You were fantastic guests in every sense. I am looking forward to welcoming you again. Property Owner

The property
Pebbles is a petite first-floor apartment just outside the centre of Swanage on Dorset’s magnificent Jurassic Coast.
This tasteful apartment provides a cosy and comfortable base for two to enjoy a coastal break in this pretty seaside resort.
Before entering the shared hallway of the building and ascending the first flight of stairs to reach Pebbles you will be greeted by an allocated off-road car parking space at the rear of the property.
Spend your free time in the sitting room, relaxing on the plush settee whilst reflecting on the day’s activities or step down into the compact, but well-equipped, kitchen to rustle up a tasty treat for your loved one.
Take a seat at the dining table for a takeout or a home-cooked meal and discuss your planned holiday itinerary before retiring to the bedroom, furnished with a comfortable king size bed, for a restful sleep.
The interior is completed by a contemporary bathroom with a walk-in shower, towel rail radiator, basin and W.C with elegant bathroom tiling.
(Please be advised this property has three small steps from lounge to kitchen there are two small steps from corridor to bedroom/bathroom).
A trip to the beach is a must when visiting Dorset’s gorgeous coastline.
Bring your bucket and spades and head to the nearby Swanage beach which has a Blue Flag rating and offers the opportunity to enjoy a variety of water sports.
Take a stroll along the whole length of Swanage beach before sitting down for Fish and Chips by the seafront or enjoy the views over the bay, enjoying the play of light of the setting sun from the charming Victorian Pier.
Hike the South West Coast Path’s broad open clifftops pausing at places like Old Harry Rocks or Durlston Castle and Peveril Point along the way get a greater sense of your surroundings.
Take the Swanage Steam Railway to Corfe Castle with its imposing ruins and, if you’re feeling energetic, take the 7 mile walk back to Swanage via the Purbeck Ridgeway where you will be greeted by splendid surrounding view over Poole Harbour and towards the Isle of Wight.
Drive to Wareham, a historic riverside town, one of England’s few remaining Saxon walled towns or take the No.50 Breezer open-topped bus from Swanage to Bournemouth via the Chain Ferry across the mouth of Poole Harbour to explore Bournemouth’s attractions such as the Oceanarium, the Bournemouth Observation Wheel and the Bournemouth Natural Science Society.
There is plenty to do and see.
Pebbles is the perfect base from which to explore so many delights that Dorset has to offer.

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.
