How Lovely Self-Catering

Just up the road from the Blue Flag-awarded Swanage Beach, this home gives you a great excuse to visit the Jurassic Coast.

With high ceilings, original coving, and a feature fireplace, this space still embraces its 1890 origins. While the second bedroom serves youngsters, this apartment makes a good option for families seeking a seaside base.
