Photos and Description of the Dorset vacation cottage rental Just above Swanage with seaviews, closeby sandy beaches & Jurassic coast.

With seaviews and just a short walk from the top of the downs overlooking Swanage beach our home is ideal for a self-catering family holiday, also for golfers who want to take on the nearby Studland course and for walkers who want to explore Dorset's extraordinary coastline. Originally a coastguard cottage it has immediate access to the fields leading over to the lighthouse and coastal paths as well as to the beautiful woods of Durlston Country Park. The cottage has recently been renovated and furnished to a high standard, but still retains many features that give it a truly relaxing old charm.

A short walk takes you down to the town with its sandy beach, Victorian pier, boat trips, restaurants, shops, supermarkets and pubs. Swanage itself has over a mile of sandy beach and the huge unspoilt National Trust beach of Studland Bay is only a few miles away. At both beaches you can hire boats and have a go at numerous water sports. From the pier it's easy to catch boats to Bournemouth, the National Trust Nature Sanctuary on Brown Sea Island and even to the Isle of Wight. If the weather isn't good enough for a beach day out then there are local indoor swimming pools and Putlake Adventure Farm on the outskirts of Swanage is always popular with the children. At Swanage railway station the steam train leaves to beautiful Corfe and its ruined castle. From Corfe you can walk back along the beautiful Purbeck Hills. Moments from the cottage is an entrance into Durlston Country Park, the very opening of the Dorset's famous Jurassic Coast. From here you can head to the lighthouse & beyond.

Sunnydale Villas

Sue from Bromley Bromley, Kent
Review Submitted: October 21, 2008 Date of Stay: October 2008
We have just returned from a one week stay in Sunnydale Villas - Swanage. The house was a well equiped 'home from home' and very comfortable. It was situated above the town with easy access to both the sea, a country park and wonderful cliff walks. Our party included 6 adults and 1 small dog and a very enjoyable break was had by all.
Owner's Response: We really do believe that our cosy comfortable home by the sea is the perfect place to relax and unwind. There is plenty to entertain in the area whether it be walks along the cliff-paths, long stretches of golden award-winning beaches, golf, animal farms, or even the steam train to historic Corfe Castle. We do try to make your stay as easy as possible, providing all the essentials we can and really do appreciate all the positive glowing comments we have had.
