Bon Visage - Two Bedroom Apartment, Sleeps 4

Very nice bright flat positioned well for easy walking distance to the beach and town centre that has everything you might need on holiday. The sitting/dinning room faces onto a very busy main access road into Swanage, so there is a lot of traffic noise all day up untill midnight. However, the bedrooms are at the back and are not affect by the road noise. It does have a glimpse of the sea to the left from a very small balcony, which is really only big enough for 1 to sit out, but then you have the beach very close by. The flat is situated on the top floor accessed by 2 flights of stairs (No lift.) but then you wouldn't expect one in this type of building. On arrival we were surprised by welcome gifts waiting for us, very thoughtful. A bottle of wine, milk and box of fudge, we even found tea bags in a cupboard. The flat is very well equipped with even spare light bulbs and fuses and others things too many to mention. It has a washing machine, the only thing missing is a dish washer, there isn't room for one. This did not bother us. The kitchen is ample big enough and has everything you would need to prepare a dinner for a family, though the freezer is a compartment in the fridge, but then there are 2 supermarkets roughly 5 mins walk away. The bathroom has a shower over the bath which means you need to step into the bath for a shower. The master bed is very soft. Wherever we go I always take piece of memory foam topper so we slept comfortably. The parking at the back is a bonus and is for 2 vehicles parked one behind the other NOT side by side. In order for all the flats to benefit from parking the allocated spaces are narrow and you rely on the good nature of others. But it all worked out OK for us. Like most holiday rented accommodation, there are signs of wear in places, but nothing major. Summary: it's a nice bright, clean, comfortable, well equipped holiday flat that's a little home from home, we enjoyed our stay.
