First impressions are a small terraced quarrymen's cottage on the outskirts of Swanage however, there is a Tardis effect when you go in. Cosy living room with beautiful solid purbeck stone 3 foot thick walls. Kitchen is ample with all the mod cons and a generous dining room table.. Modern bathroom on ground floor. Bedrooms were large and well decorated. Had the best sleep. Garden was small but perfectly adequate for a BBQ on the deck. Views from the top bedroom overlook farmers fields with the heritage railway puffing through a cutting. There is a train station 200m away for trips to Corfe Castle. For the price of what we paid I cannot fault. Easily sleeps 6. Perfect for a family. 2 pubs, a fish and chips and a curry restaurant 2 mins away. The Royal Oak pub nearby does a outstanding Sunday dinner for around £6. They say its the most haunted pub in Dorset. The Landlady is very knowledgeable about the history and has featured on TV ghost hunting shows
