    The double bed wasn't the most comfortable, neither were the chairs or sofas. A lot of thought went into the aesthetic but style over comfort. Otherwise a great cottage.

    Lovely cottage in a great location. Clean and well equipped, lovely touches such as welcome milk and tea.

    Nothing comes to mind.

    Very beautiful property, located a short walk from the sea front. Very well equipped with modern gadgets, set in a cottage style. The little extras like tea/coffee/milk/sugar and chocolates were very welcome after a long drive. Added extra of good quality towels, personal washing liquids. Much appreciated as so often forgotten by myself. It felt like home.

    There was nothing I didn't like. Being really picky, the only minor improvement would have been a little coffee machine - (there was a French press).

    The location was good, not too hilly, about 10-15 minute walk from the town, but there was a late night Spar within a few minutes walk and a very nice pub another minute from the Spar. The property was very cosy, warm and comfortable with a well equipped kitchen with cleaning items, tea, coffee, milk and cookies provided and even some chocolates. Everything was very clean.

    Only blemish is the parking issue on the street but it’s understandable given the history of Swanage and the nature of the streets.

    Full of Character and great furnishings. 3 well appointed bedrooms. Very comfortable and relaxing.

    Nothing really if I had to pick something, with the beautiful Purbeck stone walls were gathering a collection of dust and a few cobwebs Maybe a go over with a hoover attachment every couple of months would suck up the dust . Quite steep walk down to town not a problem for me but could pose a problem for anyone with mobility issues .

    Decorated and furnished to suit the Character of the property. Comfortably warm Fully equipped kitchen Clean Comfortable beds Host was helpful and quick to respond to any questions.

    Really lovely holiday let in the best location- close to everything but blissfully quiet! Just a 5 minute walk to the town and sea in swanage. Gorgeous old stone cottage for the authentic purbeck experience. We had some rainy days but the cottage had everything we needed for chill out days. Lovely host who was incredibly helpful and responsive. We will definitely go back to this home from home.

    Parking was a bit hit and miss depending on how busy the street was. On occasions had to park on another road or at the other end of the street.

    Great location, and cottage had all we needed.

    honestly can’t say I didn’t dislike anything. if you were to push me to say something negative I’d say the pillows were a bit firm for me but that didn’t stop me sleeping right through the night!

    By no means is this a criticism as we loved our stay but just for the cleaning company, there was half a piece of bread left in the toaster, the wire rack in the oven still had food on it and some cobwebs between the beams downstairs.

    A lovely quirky little cottage that has been tastefully decorated and has everything one could possibly need for a holiday.
