    Lovely seaside town with extraordinary beach and vista; we also like the shops, Steam Railway and the layout of the town. Lovely Cafe for Lunch where we waited to board the Waverly Paddle Steamer. A trip of the Swanage Steam Railway. A superb visit.

    We only stayed in Swanage as we know it well but we had an appointment in Poole on one day and walked to the Old Harry Rocks from the Bankes Arms in Studland on another. We ate out in Swanage each evening enjoying looking out to sea in the sunshine.

    Lovely place for a weeks holiday, Swanage has many eating places, sometimes pricey. And the good ones are all reserved quickly. So you have to be quick! Durston park was very good for a walk which is nearby. Corfe Castle too steep for us. The steam train quite expensive for only a few miles from Swanage.

    Great family location, lots of restaurants to choose from. Only minor issue, you need to try and book tables during high season as a lot of places were very busy. We only found one place where you could book online.

    Busy seaside resort, and good pier and nice clean sandy beaches. However, apart from few pubs , all places were closed shortly after 9pm, including most restaurants- surprising on August Bank Holiday.

    Swanage is an amazing place to relax and enjoy the beach and sea. A variety of food and shops and arcades in the town make the need to travel any further unnesaccery. A trip on the steam train to corfe castle and a cream tea after a walk up the hill and back is also a great experience

    Decoration of the house was great, the property was close to the sea and shops. The kitchen had all the equipment we needed and more. In terms of location there were some nice places in Swanage, but the town needs a bit more investment and it would be nice if the architecture of some of the buildings complemented its surrounding a bit more. Beach was ok but not impressive. The best parts were the costal paths. Corfe caste / village and Worth Matravers worth visiting

    Smartly presented hotel with good views to the sea and town of Swanage. Style is conservative with a small "c". My single room was smallish but nicely equipped with a comfortable bed and good bathroom. Common areas are nice and roomy with good views. About a mile's walk from the centre of Swanage with a bit of a climb, but much nearer to the beach. Held my luggage for me during the day.
